Installation

Many monitors will not support all of the resolutions and refresh rates shown. If you get no display, try a different rate.

6SOG (Sync on Green) On/Off switch— Set this switch to the On (up) position to enable SOG for RGsB video.

Set this switch to the Off (down) position to disable SOG for RGBS or RGBHV video.

7AC power connector — Plug a standard IEC power cord into this connector to connect the converter to a 100 to 240VAC, 50 Hz or 60 Hz power source.

Installation

1.

Power off the computer and its local monitor.

2.

For optional rack mounting, mount the converter on a 19" 1U

 

Universal Rack Shelf (Extron part #60-190-01) (figure 3).

Remove the rubber feet from the case if installed.

b.

Mount the converter on the rack shelf, using two 4-40 x 3/16

 

screws in opposite (diagonal) corners.

 

c.

Install a blank panel (included in the rack kit) or another 1U

 

 

half-rack unit on the unused side of the rack.

3.

Connect the input, loop-through and output cables. See Rear Panel

 

Connections and Controls.

 

 

The maximum permissible length of the DVI input and output

 

 

 

 

cables is 16.4 feet (5 meters). Ensure that the cables do not exceed

 

 

the maximum permissible length, otherwise images may be

 

 

distorted or missing. Extron does not guarantee signal integrity

 

 

beyond 16.4 feet.

4.

Configure the DDC, Output Resolution, and SOG switches. See

 

Rear Panel Connections and Controls.

5.

Connect power to the DVI-RGB 100.

9Level Boost control — The Level Boost control alters the bright- ness of the picture on the RGB output. Judge the adjustment visually by looking at the display.

At the minimum level setting (the counterclockwise limit of this control), the converter outputs video at 0.5 volts p-p.

At the control’s midpoint, the converter outputs video at 0.7 volts p-p (unity level).

At the maximum level setting (the clockwise limit of this control), the converter outputs video at 1.45 volts p-p.

Select a level setting of 0.7 volts and above to compensate for the signal level decrease that occurs with long cables. Set the level at the maximum setting for cable lengths over 500 feet.

Level Boost has no affect on the DVI output of the Buffered Loop- through connector.
