Features

Six video inputs

Input 1 — Five BNC connectors on the rear panel accept RGBHV/RGBS/ RGsB computer video for pass-through, or HDTV YUV video for pass- through.

Input 2 — Five BNC connectors on the rear panel accept RGBHV/RGBS/ RGsB as pass-through computer video, RGBcS, and component video (interlaced and progressive).

Inputs 3 to 5 — Three pairs of BNC connectors on the rear panel accept S-video or composite video signals.

Input 6 — DVS 406 D and DVS 406 AD are equipped with an SDI connector for a serial digital interface signal.

Buffered video outputs — Five rear-panel BNC connectors and one VGA-type 15-pin HD connector provide connections for RGB or component video (YUV) output. Both outputs (the BNCs and the 15-pin HD connector) are active at all times for simultaneous output.

Six balanced or unbalanced stereo audio inputs — The audio versions of the DVS 406 (406 A and 406 AD) are equipped with six rear panel captive screw connectors that accept audio inputs. Each input’s audio level level can be individually set.

One balanced or unbalanced stereo audio output — One line level output is provided on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw terminals.

Audio breakaway — Audio and video can be switched separately via RS-232.

Three ways to control the scaler — The scaler’s front panel, a computer or other RS-232 control device, or the optional IR 901 remote control can all be used to control the scaler.

Scaled outputs — The DVS 406 offers 55 different output rates.

RS-232 configuration — The DVS 406 can be configured by using the Extron control software for Windows, or by using a third party control system.

Triple-Action Switching— With this method, a blank screen is displayed while the DVS 406 switches between inputs.

Accu-RATE Frame Lock— The Extron Accu-RATE Frame Lock™ (patent pending) eliminates artifacts from scaled motion video by eliminating frame rate conversion. It locks the output frame rate to the input frame rate of the active input. The result is a switching system that eliminates image tears and other artifacts from motion video.

Dynamic Motion Interpolation(DMI) — This video processing technique is an advanced motion prediction and compensation method that treats motion content and still content with different algorithms to yield high fidelity images.
