User Presets, Input Presets | Extron electronic DSC 3G-HD A manual

User Presets

Three memory slots are available for you to store certain input settings as a preset. You can then recall a saved preset and apply it to the current input.

NOTE: A user preset can be saved at one input resolution, then recalled at another.

User presets can be saved, recalled, and cleared via the OSD (see User Presets submenu on page 19) or SIS commands (see the User Presets commands on page 53). The following values are saved in a user preset:

•	Contrast	•	Active lines (V Active)
•	Brightness	•	Horizontal image position
•	Detail	•	Vertical image position
•	Preset name	•	Horizontal image size (width)
•	Vertical start	•	Vertical image size (height)

NOTE: You can change the picture and image settings using the Picture Controls submenu (see page 22) and Input submenu (see page 23) or SIS commands (see the Presets commands on page 53. The preset name can be assigned only via SIS commands.

Input Presets

The DSC has 16 memory slots in which you can save input presets that are global to the HDMI or SDI input. These presets allow a matrix switcher with multiple types of video inputs (such as an SMX) to be placed upstream from the DSC to expand the number of video sources. Input presets can be saved and recalled only through SIS commands (see the Input Presets commands on page 54).

Values for the following settings are saved in input presets:

•	Contrast	•	Active pixels (H Active)
•	Brightness	•	Active lines (V Active)
•	Detail	•	Horizontal image position
•	Film Mode	•	Vertical image position
•	Audio gain and attenuation	•	Horizontal image size (width)
•	Horizontal start	•	Vertical image size (height)
•	Vertical start	•	Total pixels
		• Preset name

Saving a preset when using a matrix switcher

When using the DSC with a matrix switcher, do the following to save a preset:

1.Switch each input of the matrix to the DSC.

2.Configure each input: size, position, detail, brightness, and contrast. (The remaining settings — H start, V start, active pixels and lines, and total pixels — are not user-configurable, but are stored automatically as part of the preset.)

3.Save the settings to a preset for recall by the control system when that matrix input is routed to the HDMI or SDI input.
