DVC 501 SD • Setup Guide

The Extron DVC 501 SD receives SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G-SDI serial digital video signals and converts them to DVI-D and analog RGB or component video. It is compliant with SMPTE 259M, 292M, 424M, and ITU digital video standards. The RGB output can be set for RGBHV, RGBS, and RGsB. Bi-level or tri-level sync can be selected when the unit is set for component video output. The DVC 501 SD features extraction of embedded AES3 audio, RS-232 and USB serial control, and a buffered loop-through that delivers reshaped and restored multi-rate SDI signals.

NOTE:	For full installation, configuration, and operation details, see the DVC 501 SD User Guide, available at

Installation Steps

1.Disconnect power from all equipment.

2.(Optional) Mount the unit to a rack or furniture.

3.Connect the video input. Connect an SD-SDI, HD-SDI, or 3G-SDI source to the 3G/HD/SD-SDI port of the BNC input connector (B in the rear panel illustration above).

4.(Optional) Connect a monitor or recording device. Attach a monitor or video recording device to the Buffered Loop-through BNC connector (C).

5.Connect the video output. Connect a display or other output device to the DVD-D digital video connector (D) or to the RGB/R-Y,Y,B-Y analog RGB (RGBHV, RGBS, and RGsB) or YUV component video connector (E).

6.Connect a control device. Connect a host device, such as a computer or touchpanel control system to one or both of the following DVC ports to configure and control the DVC via Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) commands.

zz RS-232 port (rear panel) — Connect a host device to the Tx, Rx, and _ (ground) pins of this 5-pole captive screw

connector (G). The first and second pins of this connector are not used. The default protocol for this port is 9600 baud, 1 stop bit, no parity, 8 data bits, and no flow control.

zz Config port (front panel) — Connect a USB cable (USB A to USB mini B) between a USB port on your computer and this port (A on the front panel illustration on the next page).

7.Connect the audio output. Connect an amplifier or other audio output device to the 5-pole captive screw audio connector (F on the rear panel illustration), as shown below.
