Please remember the following important points regarding system interconnection:

•Each M/E has two scalers, each with three inputs: Analog, HD/SDI and DVI-I. The DVI-I connector has both an analog and a digital connection.

Note

The analog connection on the DVI connector can only be used for unscaled inputs. It cannot be sent to the scaler. The digital side can go to either the scaled or unscaled channel.

•You can connect sources and assign them to Controller buttons — but only one source can be assigned to a scaler at a time. For unscaled sources, connect a maximum of two backgrounds and two DSK sources.

Note

Two DSK sources can be connected to the system on 1A and 1B — but only one can be used at a time.

•You can connect a source directly to an input, or you can connect the output of a router to an input. The use of routers offers less restrictions with regard to assigning sources to layers.

•Analog inputs can be used to connect composite, S-Video (Y/C) and component video sources. Customer supplied breakout cables are required.

•The DSK source always connects to one of the two DVI-Iinputs on the M/E 1 board — electronically, the highest priority board in the system.

•Background sources always connect to the lowest priority board in your system, but that board varies depending upon the number of M/E boards present. In Chapter 2, see the “A Word About M/E Connector Priority” section on page 50.

•Remember that VPx is designed for widescreen and stack configurations. A VPx cannot be used in a single processor configuration.
