'We opted for the new Series 1 based on the numerous improvements Hatteland Display introduced for the redesigned version, siad Dag Utskot, factory manager for Hernis Scan Systems. 'Our CCTV systems are installed on vessels that operate in the most extreme environments so we have to provide monitors that are flexible and highly reliable. We believe the upgraded Series 1 family has those strengths and are confident that they will perform well for our customers.'

The new Series 1 follows the same form fit as its near industry standard predecessor, enabling simple upgrading and integration to existing systems, but now using fewer modules and cable connections, which increases reliability and reduces component costs. In addition to being able to offer more value, Series 1 MMDs also feature improved connectivity and functionality.

Series 1 MMDs feature a new 160 pin I/O connector, which allows the connection of many common signal types using just one cable connection. All known signal types of Hatteland's MMD models can now be accessed through this single connector, such as Composite Video Input, S-VHS Video Input and Serial Communication. Hatteland can now offer more signal input/outputs upon request for customized solutions.

Hatteland Display has also integrated an Embedded Video Controller X-tended, enabling users to utilise more signals than before. Other connections include RGB out, RGB in, IEC outlet, two COM ports and USB.
