KD-VA5 Operating Instructions

Useful Tips

It is suggested that you read and follow this entire Operating Manual. Some useful tips to keep in mind when installing and using the KD-VA5:

1.Always test the full operation of your unit before final installation of cables behind walls or ceilings.

2.Use ONLY the 5V, 1 Amp Power Supply provided with your unit.

3.“Component Video” means “YPbPr” with “Sync” usually provided on the “Y” channel.

4.KD-VA5 Intelligent Auto Sensing™ looks for active sync on the “Y” Component Video source input, so if you are in the RGBHV-to-Component Video mode and want to view the RGBHV source you must ensure there is no active sync on the “Y” channel.

5.You must set the three slide switches to correspond to the desired Sync settings. Follow the instructions on the silkscreen cover of the unit, or read the details provided in this Operating Manual.

6.Limit cable lengths to 50’ each, using high-quality cables of equal cable length.

7.The KD-VA5 supports only the following popular analog SD and HD video formats:

1080i (60 & 50 Hz),

720p (60 & 50 Hz)

480p (60 Hz)

576p (50 Hz)

576i (50 Hz, SCART only)

8.Take advantage of the “pass-through” feature to simultaneously connect Component and RGBHV Video sources and displays.

9.Verify intended operation/configuration by observing the LEDs on the top of the unit and the corresponding silkscreen explanations.

10.This video adapter is NOT a video processor or video scaler, so other than format conversions between RGBHV and Component (YPbPr) Video, there is no further video processing performed in the unit.

11.This video adapter does not support audio. You must handle your audio connections and needs separately.

12.Other than Intelligent Auto Sensingfeature, the KD-VA5 does not provide switching or distribution capabilities. Only use each output to drive one video display, and do not daisy chain the video inputs to any other product.
