DESCRIPTION

The Extron VSS 100 Video Sync Separator is for systems that use video formats with embedded sync, in particular with the SCART connector found in Europe. Sources such as DVD players with RGB and composite video output on a SCART connector can now be used with RGB switchers like the Extron System 7SC. Simply use the RGB output of the DVD player and composite sync output from the VSS 100. The VSS 100 also extracts the sync signal from RGsB, component video, S-video, or composite video inputs. It then outputs the composite sync signal, at TTL levels, on a separate signal line. The original video signal is looped through unchanged.

Systems can take advantage of Extron technologies that depend on a separate sync input such as the DSVP- Digital Sync Validation Processing feature on the Extron CrossPoint 450 Plus matrix switchers. Exclusive to Extron, DSVP confirms that input sources are active by scanning all sync inputs for active signals. DSVP provides instantaneous frequency feedback for composite sync or separate horizontal and vertical sync signals via the switcher's RS-232 and RS-422 or Ethernet port.

The VSS 100 fits behind a rack-mounted Extron switcher. For easy integration into the system, it includes a 6 inch male-to-male BNC cable. The sync separator has an external, international power supply that can drive up to four VSS 100s.
