Off — If this switch is set to Off, the interface performs sync processing operations, such as horizontal shift, using Extron’s ADSP™.

Turning on the DDSP feature disables the horizontal shift control and the vertical shift control.

SERR (serration pulses)

Many display devices, such as LCD and DLP projectors and plasma displays, must not have serration pulses present in the sync signal in order to display images properly. Flagging or bending at the top of the video image is a sign that the serration pulses should not be present.

On — When this switch is set On, serration pulses are present with sync signal output.

Off — When this switch is set Off, serration pulses are not present with sync signal output.

75 Ohm (local monitor video input termination)

On — Set this switch on for 75-ohm input termination.

 

 

Off —

Set this switch off for high impedance input

Set both pins to On if you are using the RGB 160xi

 

 

 

or RGB 164xi interface with a laptop computer that

 

 

 

is not connected to a local monitor.

 

 

Off —

Set both pins to Off if you are connecting a local

 

 

 

monitor to the interface.

Setting internal jumpers

The jumpers inside the interfaces are set at the factory for optimal use by most systems. However, you can change a jumper setting to meet the needs of a particular system.

Changes to internal jumper settings must be performed by authorized service personnel only.

The user-configurable, internal jumpers control the following functions:

•Horizontal and vertical sync polarity

•Vertical sync pulse width

Follow these steps to change the jumper settings. The RGB 134xi is shown for illustration, but the steps apply to all interfaces.

1.

Remove power from the interface by disconnecting the AC

 

power cord from the unit.

2.

Open the cover of the interface (the top half of the

 

enclosure) (figure 2-18). Remove the screws from the

 

enclosure, and lift the cover straight up.

Do not touch any switches or electronic components inside the interface. Doing so could damage the interface.

Slide cover back slightly, lift straight up.

3.

Note the positions of jumpers J20 and J40 before changing

 

jumper settings. Figure 2-19 shows the locations of the J20

 

and J40 jumpers and the two possible setting combinations

 

for 3-pin jumpers.

4.

Configure the jumpers as defined below. To configure the

 

jumpers, use pliers to pull the jumper shunt off the pins,

 

then place the jumper on the appropriate pins

 

(figure 2-20).

The jumpers perform the following functions:

J20: Sync polarity jumper — This jumper adjusts the output Follow Negative sync polarity. Horizontal (H) and vertical (V) sync output

can either follow input sync polarity, or be forced to

1negative.

•If the jumper is placed on pins 1 and 2, output H and V sync polarities is forced to negative.

•If the jumper is placed on pins 2 and 3, output sync polarity follows input sync polarity; the output sync signal’s polarity is the same as the input polarity. This is the default setting.
