Operators Safety Summary

Do Not Remove Covers or Panels

There are no user-serviceable parts within the unit. Removal of the top
cover will expose dangerous voltages. To avoid personal injury, do not
remove the top cover. Do not operate the unit without the cover installed

Power Source

This product is intended to operate from a power source that will not
apply more than 230 volts rms between the supply conductors or
between both supply conductor and ground. A protective ground
connection by way of grounding conductor in the power cord is essential
for safe operation.

Grounding the Product

This product is grounded through the grounding conductor of the power
cord. To avoid electrical shock, plug the power cord into a properly wired
receptacle before connecting to the product input or output terminals.

The general safety information in this summary is for operating personnel.

A protective-ground connection by way of the grounding conductor in the
power cord is essential for safe operation.

Use the Proper Power Cord

.

Use only the power cord and connector specified for your product. Use
only a power cord that is in good condition. Refer cord and connector
changes to qualified service personnel.

Use the Proper Fuse

To avoid fire hazard, use only the fuse having identical type, voltage
rating, and current rating characteristics. Refer fuse replacement to
qualified service personnel.

ImagePRO™ Quick Start Guide

Step 1: Connect Input Sources to ImagePRO™

1. Connect analog video source to the ImagePRO™ using the three universal video inputs.

2. Connect any SDI video source to the SDI video input (ImagePRO-SDI™ and ImagePRO-HD™ only).

3. Connect DVI video source to the DVI video input (ImagePRO-HD™ only).

Step 2: Connect ImagePRO™ to Output Devices

1. Connect Hi-res video output devices to the ImagePRO™ using the 5 BNC or HD-15 output connectors.

2. Connect NTSC or PAL monitor using the Composite or S-Video Output connectors

3. Connect SDI video devices to the SDI video output (ImagePRO-SDI™ and ImagePRO-HD™ only).

4. Connect DVI Digital Flat panel display to the DVI video output (ImagePRO-HD™ only).

Step 3: Power Up

Connect ImagePRO™ to AC power using the power cord supplied with the unit. Locate the power s witch on the power entry module
at the rear of the unit and turn the power on. When initializatio n is complete, the front panel display will indicate that the unit has
powered up successfully. The Status screen is displayed when the initialization process is complete.

Step 4: Select and Save the desired Output Format

Press the SETUP button and then using the ADJUST knob, scroll do wn to “Output” and press the SE L key to e nter the Output Setup
menu. Press SEL key to select the Output Format field and then use the ADJUST knob to locate the desired output format. Press
the SEL key again to select this output format. Now scroll down to Save Config an d press the SEL key to save this format as the
default.

Press the ESC key to leave the Output Setup menu.

Step 5: Configure Input Sources

ImagePRO™ will automatically lock to video applied to the inputs and will make a attempt to match the Video format in the following

search order: Last configuration saved for the selected input channel, One of 64 stored configurations, a ny custom formats stored by the
user, library formats and finally using a “best guess” a lgorithm matching to the closest library format. While this approach ge nerally lea ds
to an acceptable output image, it is strongly recommended that the user sets up a configuration file to precisely define the video
parameters associated with each input. The use of configuration files provides consistent, repeatable operation and allows the user to
adjust video parameters for each source to optimize image qual ity. Each time a source is selected with the Source Selection keys, the
configuration file associated with that source is automatically reloaded.

Setting up input configuration files is simple. Proceed as follows for each input.

1. Select the source you wish to work by pressing the INPUT select key.

2. Enter the INPUT SETUP menu by pressing the SETUP button and then pressing SEL to select the “Input” menu.
Examine the image on the display device and adjust the input parameters as desired. The Input Setup menu is
described in detail in chapter 3 of the ImagePRO™ manual. Many of the parameters may require no adjustment,
however, be sure that the “Input Format” and “Input Type” menu items are selected to match the incoming source video.

3. When the input setup parameters have been set as desired, scroll down to “Save Config” using the A DJUST knob and
press the SEL button to save the current setup. The setup information is automatically as signed to the source used for
the input setup process. The input configuration file will automatically be recalled for use each time the source is
selected.

Whenever a modification is made to a configuration, you must resave the changes following the procedure above.

NOTE:

This is a quick reference guide. For detailed information on the ImagePRO

Rack-Mount Installation

ImagePROTM units are designed to be rack mounted and are supplied with front rack-mount hardware. Rear rack­mount brackets are available as a kit and are recommended for use when units are mounted in transit cases. When
rack mounting the unit, remember that the maximum ambient operating temperature for the unit is 40 degrees C.
Leave at least one inch of space front and rear to make sure that the airflow through the fan and vent holes is not
restricted. When installing equipment into a rack, distribute the units evenly to prevent hazardous conditions that may
be created by uneven weight distribution. Connect the unit only to a properly rated supply circuit. Reliable grounding
(earthing) of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.

Video Output Connections

Four independently buffered outputs (one five wire BNC connection, one HD-15, one S-Video, and one Composite
video BNC) are provided. Both 5-wire and HD-15 outputs provide the same Video in RG B or YPbPr format. Outputs
are available depending on the resolution selected. For example, RGB vid eo at 1024x768@60Hz
both on the 5-wire BNC and HD-15 outputs. Likewise, NTSC Video will be available on th e Composite, S-Video and
SDI output connectors.

The operator can select the type of output sync to match application requirements. Separate C (Composite) or

S-Video (Y/C) Video Output

The Y/C video output connector is a 4-Pin Mini DIN located on the rear panel of the ImagePRO™. Using a
commercial S-VHS cable, connect the Y/C video output to the input of the S-VHS device (monitor, video recorder,
etc.).

Composite Video Output

Connect the composite input of the monitor to the composite output BNC of the ImagePRO™ using a 75-ohm coaxial
cable.
