Typical Configuration
Figure 1 shows a typical configuration for a home theater system. In this setup, an iScan Plus v2 is being used to enhance the output from a DVD player, satellite receiver and a VCR before the selected signal is sent to a rear screen projection TV, or other progressively scanned display device. Your configuration may be significantly different from this but the basic functional blocks – input devices, input cables, iScan Plus v2, output cable and display device – will exist in your system.
One common deviation from this configuration is to use an A/V Receiver or other video switching device to switch the video signals from the input devices. In this case, the input devices shown below will be connected to the inputs of the A/V Receiver. The output of the A/V Receiver will be then be the only input device to the iScan Plus v2.
