Extron electronic IN1508 guide

Audio outputs — The switcher provides an unbalanced line level signal that is identical to the input signal. This output can drive any line level compatible audio unit, or a local device such as powered speakers.

Video output resolutions — The IN1508 outputs an image scaled up to the following output resolutions:

•640 x 480 (VGA) at 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and 75 Hz

•800 x 600 (SVGA) at 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and 75 Hz

•852 x 480 at 50 Hz and 60 Hz

•1024 x 768 (XGA) at 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and 75 Hz

•1280 x 768 at 60 Hz

•1280 x 800 at 50 Hz and 60 Hz

•1280 x 1024 (SXGA) at 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and 75 Hz

•1024 x 852 at 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and 75 Hz

•1024 x 1024 at 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and 75 Hz

•1366 x 768 (wide XGA) at 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and 75 Hz

•1365 x 1024 (plasma) at 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and 75 Hz

•1400 x 1050 at 50 Hz and 60 Hz

•1440 x 900 at 60 Hz and 75 Hz

•1600 x 1200 (UXGA) at 50 Hz and 60 Hz

•1680 x 1050 at 60 Hz

•720 x 480 (HDTV 480p) at 60 Hz

•720 x 576 (HDTV 576p) at 50 Hz

•1280 x 720 (HDTV 720p) at 50 Hz and 60 Hz

•1920 x 1080 (HDTV 1080i ) at 50 Hz and 60 Hz

•1920 x 1080 (HDTV 1080p) at 60 Hz

Seamless Switching — The IN1508 provides a seamless transition between scaled low resolution video inputs (inputs 1 through 4 [or inputs 1 through 5 if input 5 is configured as interlaced component video]) and the high resolution inputs (inputs 6 and 7 [or inputs 5 through 7 if input 5 is configured as progressive component video or HDTV]).

Picture-in-picture — One input from either the low resolution (interlaced component, S-video, and composite video) video inputs or the high resolution (VGA, progressive component, and DVI) video inputs can be selected as the primary picture. A second high resolution or low resolution input can be selected as the secondary picture. The secondary picture is displayed in a user-determined area of the output image. The primary and secondary picture can be swapped with a touch of a button.
