Introduction

About the RGB 580xi

The Extron RGB 580xi is an analog, remote-mountable computer video interface that can be installed in a location that is hidden from the user’s view. It features a 300 MHz (< -3 dB) video bandwidth.

It accepts one analog computer video input (RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, and RsGsBs) on a 15-pin HD female connector and one unbalanced stereo audio input on a 3.5 mm stereo female jack. Five BNC female connectors provide video output (RGBHV, RGBS, and RGsB), and a five-pole captive screw connector provides for stereo audio output.

A variety of Architectural Adapter Plates (AAP) with A/V inputs can be used in conjunction with the RGB 580xi and are ideal for installation in remote locations, including discreet mounting in the Extron Hideaway Surface Access Products, such as the HSA 400, HSA 402 and HSA 822.

In addition, a series of RGB 580xi CC AAP plates are also available for Extron Cable Cubby mounting.

In this manual, “RGB 580xi” and “remote interface” are used interchangeably.

Features

Stereo audio — Unbalanced, PC level stereo audio input can be output as balanced or unbalanced stereo audio.

Level and Peaking adjustments — Level and peaking controls compensate for signal losses over long cable runs. Level adjusts image brightness and peaking adjusts image sharpness.

Advanced Digital Sync Processing (ADSP™) — ADSP allows sync processing operations, such as horizontal centering, to occur without affecting the signal’s sync timing. This allows horizontal centering to be applied to signals that are output to digital display devices such as LCD projectors, DLP projectors and plasma displays. A front panel DIP switch provides another option, Digital Display Sync Processing™ (DDSP™), to ensure proper displays without altering sync pulse timing or width.

Remote contact closure — A contact closure signal can be sent to the interface from the remote AAP.

RS-232 control — A set of instructions are available via the Extron control software for Windows®, or any other remote control system.
