Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the iScan VP20 Video Processor powered by ABT. This product delivers
a level of quality among the very highest available today.
We are especially pleased to bring you ABT’s new Precision Video Scaling II. This technology
enables precision upconversion of standard and high denition (480i/p, 576i/p, 720p or 1080i)
video sources and content to the native or optimum resolution of your display, delivering
best-in-class front-of-screen performance. Available output resolutions span from VGA up to
1080p, including the standard HDTV resolutions of 720p and 1080i.
The iScan VP20 can also be upgraded with the Precision Deinterlacing Card which includes ABT’s
new Precision Deinterlacing technology. With this upgrade, the iScan VP20 has reference-quality
deinterlacing for SD video, lm and mixed-mode content. This card is a user/dealer-installable
upgrade and it is compatible with both the iScan VP20 and the iScan VP30.
In addition to our own video scaling technology and available deinterlacing technology, the iScan
VP20 also offers a host of other innovative features, including:
• 3 HDMI (High Denition Multimedia Interface) inputs and 1 HDMI output
• Flexible Digital and Analog Audio Switching
• Precision Audio/Video Time-Delay Synchronization
• Timebase Correction
• Framerate Conversion (PAL <—> NTSC)
• Input and Output Aspect Ratio Controls
• Flexible Zoom and Pan Controls
This Owner’s Manual can help you set up your new iScan VP20, and give you the information
required to match it to your display. It can also show you how to connect it to and use it with the
other components in your system.
Document Conventions
In this Owner’s Manual, the menu structure is referred to in the following abbreviated form:

Unpacking and Inspection
Your iScan VP20 carton should contain the following items:
• iScan VP20 Video Processor
• Universal 6V@5A AC-to-DC Power Converter
• US Power Cord (International Customers, consult your local authorized DVDO reseller)
• Remote Control
• iScan VP20 Product Guide
• iScan VP20 Quick Start Guide
• Serial Cable for Software Updates and Automation (1:1)
• Software CD
The iScan VP20 uses an HDMI digital connector to provide a video output signal. You must purchase
a cable to connect this output to your display. Different displays have different input connectors, so
check your display specications to ensure compatibility.
Both input and output cables can be supplied by your Authorized DVDO Reseller. To nd your nearest
Authorized DVDO Reseller, go to www.dvdo.com/res/index.html. There are also a wide selection
of cables and adapters available on our website at www.dvdo.com/pro/pro_acc.html.
Display Compatibility Requirements
DVDO iScan video processing products are compatible with a wide range of displays. These include
digital TVs, projectors, and at panel displays, as well as other emerging technologies that can support
480p or higher resolution video signals.
To determine if your display is compatible with the DVDO iScan VP20, look to see if it has one of
the digital inputs listed below. If not, then your display may only have analog High Denition inputs
or it is probably limited to receiving a standard NTSC, PAL or SECAM interlaced signal and will
not function correctly with iScan VP20. If your display only has analog High Denition inputs than we
recommend the iScan VP30.
Digital Inputs
HDMI input DVI-D input
The following types of displays with digital video inputs should be compatible with the iScan VP20 since
a large majority of them can support higher resolution signals:
• Plasma displays
• LCD-based at panel and front & rear projection displays
• DLP-based front & rear projection displays
• LCoS-based front & rear projection displays (D-ILA™ & SXRD™ included)
• CRT-based Direct View and front and rear projection displays
