2 Setup

Basic setup involves 3 main steps:

1. Setting the DIP switches for the desired resolution output.

2. Connecting the proper cables and AC power adapter.

3. Switching on

2.1 Basic Setup Notes

The following provides a short introduction to the basic setup:



DIP Switch settings for output resolution



Display: There is a wide selection of displays in the marketplace that are suitable for use with the AVX-1920. Users are however recommended to consider the following:

o

As a general rule it is recommended to set the output resolution to the same resolution as the display to be used.

o

Aspect ratio: Many displays are widescreen with an aspect ratio of 16:9. However PAL/NTSC is 4:3. Consequently video output to widescreen displays may be stretched or shown with black bars.

Firmware : E0.17.X1

RS-232 Control: The AVX-1920 can be controlled through the RS-232 port using the commands as summarized in Appendix II below. This provides comprehensive access to the functions and settings as provided by the OSD commands.

Network Control: The AVX-1920 provides two choices for control over a network:



Browser based: With the default network port firmware the AVX-1920 network connection includes a web server and a default suite of web pages providing access to features and settings. Suitably qualified developers can customize these web pages.



Direct control: The RS-232 command set (Appendix II) can be accessed over the network. This requires either an RS-232 program with virtual RS-232 port or a suitably written application. It will also require a change to the AVX-1920 network port firmware.

Appendix III – Function description for de-interlacing mode AFM, TNR, MADI, DCDi

AFM = Auto Film Mode: It is a frame based method that used for the input ODD and EVEN fields have a fixed relation between each other, such as static image, 3:2 pull down mode. If two fields are correctly merged, it can get the best quality. But if it merges two wrong fields, it will have artifact and get the worst quality.

TNR = Temporal Noise Reduction: It is a frame-based method which assume field-to-field have a fixed relationship. If the object moving too fast, it will have image artifact and get worst quality.

MADI = Motion adaptive de-interlacing: It is a pixel based method which used for the input fields have no fixed relation between them If the object moving very too fast, it will get worst quality.

DCDi = Directional Correlation Deinterlacing : It is a digital enhancement method developed by Faroudja. DCDi technology is primarily used for improving the image quality of low resolution images. This is done by deinterlacing the image and blending rough edges occurring in diagonal lines.

Appendix VIII – Auto Color Gain

The Auto Color Gain function is supported in the ARGB mode only and is designed to calibrate the controller to the incoming video signal. In order to calibrate correctly, the display must be displaying an image containing both black and white data (see illustration below) when the function is used. The internal processor of the video controller chip will then execute a process to adjust the relative values of the RGB signals to achieve the best performance. The parameters of the corrected RGB values are then stored in the controller and are unaffected by the Reset Factory Defaults function.

Warning - If the Auto Color Gain is executed without an appropriate image being displayed, then the process will set incorrect values and the display colors will be distorted. If this occurs, then it can either be corrected by performing the process correctly or if this is not possible then the Reset Color Gain function can be used. This function will reset the stored RGB values to a set of approximate values.
