ABOUT YOUR INTERFACE2
There are a great variety of computers and
computer video cards on the market today. There
are also numerous data monitors and large scr een
data projectors. When displaying a computer
image on a large screen data projector or on a
large screen monitor, it often becomes clear that
some computers are not always compatible with
these display devices. The
VA6805SX/DA 1926AV
that you have just purchased from ALTINEX is
designed to resolve this incompatibility.

fully buffered outputs: a main output on 5 BNC
connectors provides RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB, and
a pass-through 15-pin HD monitor output. The
monitor output is typically used to transmit signals
to a local monitor. If the input signal format is
RGBS or RGBHV, the main output may be
RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB. If the input signal is
RGsB, the output must be RGsB. The

4.1. INPUT
The
uses a 15-pin HD connector for input, which is
compatible with standard VGA pin-outs. This allows
the connection of a computer using coaxial cables
to a 15-pin HD connector cable. T his allows greater
flexibility and versatility of the
VA6804SX/VA 6805SX/DA1926AV.
output cables for various computers are available.

4.2. MAIN RGBHV OUTPUT
BNC connectors are considered standard
connectors for audio-visual systems. They offer a
better quality connection for high-resolution video
signals. They also allow easy cable maintenance in
the field. This output offers RGBHV, RGBS, and
RGsB output signals (RGsB type input is passthrough only). With these connectors, the
VA6803SX/ VA6804SX/ VA6805SX

Although most monitors and projectors are fully
capable of adjusting the horizontal position of the
image, in some instances it is helpful to adjust the
horizontal position at the interface. This control is
also helpful when using multiple computers.
In some cases, adjusting the horizontal position at
the interface may simplify the pr ojector set up.

adjustment knobs when using cable runs over 100
feet. This works f or up to 300 feet or m ore of cable
depending on the type of cable. The att enuation of
red, green, and blue signals due to long cables may
be effectively removed.

OPERATION7
The
VA6803SX/VA 6804SX/VA6805SX/DA1926AV
will operate successfully as long as cables are
attached properly and other technical specifications
are followed. There are no other adjustments
necessary to operate the unit.
7.1 HORIZONTAL POSITION CONTROL
When in the OFF position, the switch will disable the
adjustment of the horizontal position of the image
through the dial located on the input side plate. If
the Horizontal Position knob is in the ON position,
the horizontal position control of image is possible
through the knob on the side of the
VA6804SX/VA 6805SX/DA1926AV
With the
Position knob in the OFF position (Horizontal
position control disabled), it is recomm ended to first
adjust the horizontal position of the image using the

done to reduce the cost of the switcher and cable. In
these types of systems, the ability of the
