3 Overview
The CSC-650 is a high quality component video/UXGA to HDMI scaler. It accepts one of three inputs: either component video1 on RCA connectors, computer graphics on a 15-pin HD connector, or an HDMI signal (selected via a front panel selector button or via the Remote dry contact switch). It scales the video, embeds the audio, and outputs the signal to the HDMI output.
The CSC-650 Component / UXGA HDMI Scaler:
Is HDTV compatible and the resolution can be scaled up to 480p, 576p, 720p,
1080i or 1080p via a front panel selector button2
Has analog audio inputs for the COMP, UXGA and HDMI inputsAutomatically detects and selects the audio source for the HDMI input. Default
selection is HDMI – if this is not present, then the machine uses the audio from the analog input
Comes with an On-Screen Display (OSD) for easy setup and adjustment,
accessible via the IR remote control and via the front-panel buttons
Has a non-volatile memory that retains the last settings used Is housed in a desktop sized enclosure and is 12VDC fed
1 Also known as Y, Pb, Pr, Y, Cb, Cr and YUV; compatible with both SD and HD component 2 Other resolutions can be selected via the OSD menu. These include: 1080i, 1080p, 576i, 576p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p, WXGA, WSXGA, WUXGA, NATIVE, VGA, SVGA, XGA, SXGA, UXGA, 480i, 480p

3.1 About HDMI
High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is an uncompressed all-digital1 audio/video interface, widely supported in the entertainment and home cinema industry. It delivers the maximum high-definition image and sound quality in use today. In particular, HDMI2:
Provides a simple3 interface between any audio/video source, such as a set-top
box, DVD player, or A/V receiver and video monitor, such as a digital flat LCD / plasma television (DTV), over a single lengthy4 cable
Supports standard, enhanced, high-definition video, and multi-channel digital
audio5 on a single cable
Transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-channel digital audio,
with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements and requirements
Benefits consumers by providing superior, uncompressed digital video quality
via a single cable6, and user-friendly connector
Is backward-compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface) Supports two-way communication between the video source (such as a DVD
player) and the digital television, enabling new functionality such as automatic configuration and one-button play
HDMI has the capacity to support existing high-definition video formats (720p,
1080i, and 1080p/60), standard definition formats such as NTSC or PAL, as well as 480p and 576p
1 Ensuring an all-digital rendering of video without the losses associated with analog interfaces and their unnecessary digital­to-analog conversions 2 HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI licensing LLC 3 With video and multi-channel audio combined into a single cable, the cost, complexity, and confusion of multiple cables currently used in A/V systems is reduced 4 HDMI technology has been designed to use standard copper cable construction at up to 15m 5 HDMI supports multiple audio formats, from standard stereo to multi-channel surround-sound. HDMI has the capacity to support Dolby 5.1 audio and high-resolution audio formats 6 HDMI provides the quality and functionality of a digital interface while also supporting uncompressed video formats in a simple, cost-effective manner

3.2 Recommendations for Best Performance
To achieve the best performance:
Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,
deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise- levels (often associated with low quality cables)
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your
machine away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit. Warning – Use only the input power wall adapter that is
provided with this unit.
Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall
before installing or removing device or servicing unit.

5 Connecting the CSC-650 Component / UXGA HDMI Scaler
To connect1 your CSC-650 as the example in Figure 2 illustrates:
1. Connect a component video source (for example, a DVD player) to the COMP In Y, Pb, Pr, RCA connectors, and to the COMP In L and R audio RCA connectors.
2. Connect a computer graphics source to the UXGA In 15-pin HD connector, and to the UXGA In audio 3.5mm mini jack connector.
3. Connect an HDMI source (for example, a DVD player) to the HDMI In connector, and to the HDMI In analog audio 3.5mm mini jack connector.
4. Connect the HDMI Out connector to an HDMI acceptor (for example, a plasma display).
5. Connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the adapter to the mains electricity (not shown in Figure 2).

5.1 Connecting the Contact Closure Remote Control PINs
The contact closure remote control pins operate in a similar way to the Input selector button. Using the contact closure remote control you can select the HDMI, the COMP or the UXGA input. To do so, temporarily connect the required input1 pin on the REMOTE terminal block connector to the GND (Ground) pin, as Figure 3 illustrates.
DO NOT Connect more than one PIN to the GND PIN at the same time
To select COMP,
the HDMI PIN to the GND PIN
