seamless switching between various input sources. The DCS-200 offers all the features of
the DCS-100, and adds a scaled Preview mode that supports sizing and adjusting input
layers before taking them to Program. High-quality image scaling is maintained
throughout.
DCS-200 offers straightforward and simple operating modes, and is ideal for use in live
events, company boardrooms, hotel ballrooms, houses of worship, and in education and
training facilities. As the ideal “simple” presentation switcher to learn and operate,
DCS-200 provides a full screen output only, with no PIP capability .
DCS-200 accepts analog, DVI, and HD-SDI input sources and converts them to a wide
variety of output formats. Output video is provided on analog and DVI connectors
simultaneously. DCS-200 also allows you to capture and store up to three images to be
used as full-screen logs during the presentation. Any DVI source can be used as a
luminance key, providing an easy way for users to create titles and lower-third graphics.

The major features of the DCS-200 system are:
• The system supports input and output resolutions up to UXGA, including all HD
resolutions up to 1080p, eliminating the need to create custom output formats.
NTSC and PAL are supported as inputs only.
Note
• The DCS-200 supports DVI, analog computer and video formats on the DVI-I
inputs.
~ HDCP protocol is supported, and the DCS-200 is considered an HDCP
repeater in this configuration. Incoming encrypte d data is encrypted

going out, and all analog outputs, plus the freeze and LOGO store
functions are disabled when the DCS-200 processes HDCP content.
Refer to the “A Word About HDCP” section on page 17 for more details.
~ 1080i RGB input is supported on the DVI digital input.
• A Preview mode lets you view and adjust layers before moving them to Program.
• The DCS-200 stores and recalls up to three full-screen logos.
• The system provides true seamless switching between all inputs, including one of
the three stored full-screen logos.
• An Auto Take feature (in the User Preference Menu) supports transitioning from
one input source to another without pressing TAKE.
• The following scaling and de-interlacing features are provided:
~ 10-bit scaling
~ 10-bit 4:2:2 de-interlacer with diagonal filter
~ 165MHz maximum pixel rate
~ Low video delay: Interlaced sources, 3 fields (max)
• The DCS-200 provides the ability to luminance key unscaled DVI sources. Please
note:
~ Keys are set up from the Key Menu. The front panel KEY button is used
to enable or disable the key transition.
~ Key transitions are performed at the same rate as the full screen source
transitions.
~ If the key source resolution is greater than the output resolution, the
DCS-200 only displays an area equal to the output resolution. This area
is selectable using the menu.
~ If the key source resolution is less than the output resolution, the key is
centered on screen, and can be moved within the screen boundaries.
• The DCS-200 provides the ability to “auto acquire” input sources. The system
monitors inputs at all times, and if a timing change occurs, the system
automatically reacquires and displays the source — once the timing has been
measured.
• The DCS-200 offers simple and intuitive menus:
~ Presentations can be switched without accessing any setup menus.
~ Two front-panel lockout modes enable you to lock out menu access,
either completely or partially.
• The DCS-200 provides an integrated test pattern generator.
• The DCS-200 offers an HD/SD SDI input as standard.
• A built-in web-based GUI enables you to perform all setup and transition
functions, just like the front panel.
• The File Association feature provides the ability to save and recall up to 64 input
configuration files, and associate each of them with one or more inputs.

About the DCS-200
^=tçêÇ=^Äçìí=ea`m
HDCP stands for High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection, an industry-wide copy
protection scheme that is used to prevent the potential interception of digital data between
the source (e.g., a Blu-Ray player) and the target display (e.g., an HDCP compliant display
or monitor). The HDCP format was designed by Intel
key exchange” procedure to accomplish the required protection. For proper
implementation, products that are compatible with the HDCP format require a secure
connection to a compliant display, such as a projector or monitor.
In applications in which a DCS-200 is used, when an HDCP compliant device is connected
to the DCS-200, an HDCP “session” is created. In this session (which is transparent to the
user), “keys” are exchanged between the source device (e.g., a Blu-Ray player) and the
HDCP compliant display.
The source device queries the display to ensure that the equipment is HDCP compliant
before video is shown. Non-HDCP equipment such as PCs will work with any DVI
compliant display, but HDCP compliant equipment only shows “protected” content on
HDCP compliant displays.
Please note the following important points:
• When an HDCP compliant device is connected to the DCS-200 and that specific
input is selected, the Status Menu indicates if HDCP is enabled.
• If the “session” determines that the target display device is non-HDCP compliant
(e.g., if the user is attempting to make an illegal copy on an external recorder), an
error message appears on the DCS-200’s Status Menu , indicating that video
cannot be shown.
• HDCP compliant repeaters cannot be connected to the output of the DCS-200, as
the DCS-200 must be the last device in the HDCP "chain" — prior to the HDCP
compliant display. If an HDCP repeater is connected, the message “HDCP
Violation” appears on the Status Menu. In Chapter 4, refer to the “Status Menu
section on page 44 for additional details.
