Presets

When PAL is converted to NTSC or when NTSC is converted to PAL, the aspect ratio of the display can be distorted. In order to correct this distortion, six presets (shown in figure 5) are available. Please refer to chapter three, RS-232 Control, for information on choosing and using these presets.

Troubleshooting

Turn on the input devices (DVD, DSS, cable box) and output device(s) (VCRs, monitors, projectors). The image should now appear on the screen.

1.

Ensure that all devices are plugged in.

2.

Make sure that each device is receiving power. The TSC’s

 

front panel LEDs light if the device is receiving power and

 

an active sync signal.

3.

Check the cabling and grounding, and make adjustments

 

as needed.

4. To ensure correct cabling from the TSC to the display device, turn on the Color Bars output, using an SIS command, and disconnect the input signal.

5.Check that the appropriate output standard is selected.

6.

To test the system setup and output, substitute a video test

 

generator (VTG) for one of the video inputs. To use a

 

VTG, unplug the input and output devices and the TSC’s

 

power cord, replace the video source with a VTG, then

 

reconnect power cord to restore AC power.

7.

Call the Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline if

 

needed.
