Introduction

About this Manual

This manual discusses how to install, configure, and operate the Extron DVS 406 digital video scaler and how to operate the optional IR 901 infrared remote control (part #70-152-01).

Throughout this manual the terms “DVS”, “digital video scaler”, and “scaler” are used interchangeably to refer to the same product.

About the DVS 406

What is the DVS 406?

The DVS is a series of high performance digital video scalers that offers seamless switching between input 1 and other video inputs. This is accomplished by locking the scaled output rate to the horizontal and vertical frequencies of

input 1. The DVS 406 offers 55 output rates, including HDTV, and provides scaling solutions for boardrooms, conference rooms, and home theaters, as well as rental and staging applications.

The scaler comes in four models, two of which offer a serial digital interface (SDI) input connector: DVS 406 (no SDI and no audio), DVS 406 A (no SDI but with audio), DVS 406 D (SDI and no audio), and DVS 406 AD (SDI and audio).

The DVS accepts computer video (RGB), component video, S-video, and composite video, and each input is separately configurable. Audio versions of the scaler accept six line-level, balanced or unbalanced stereo audio inputs.

To enable superior scaling performance, the DVS 406 features several of Extron’s patent-pending technologies, including Dynamic Motion Interpolation™ (DMI™) technology, and 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection. DMI is an advanced motion detection and compensation method that enables image enhancement with no loss of image fidelity.

The DVS 406 scales composite video, S-video, and component video up to computer-video (RGBHV/RGBS/RGsB), which can be output to two display devices via individually buffered BNC and 15-pin HD connectors. The DVS 406 offers one line level stereo audio output.

Controlling the DVS 406 digital video scaler

The DVS 406 can be controlled using one or more of the following methods:

The front panel controls.

A computer, a touch screen panel, or any other device that can send and receive the serial communications through the RS-232 port. Extron’s Simple Instruction Set™ (SIS™) is a set of simple keystroke commands that can be used with any such devices, and Extron’s control software for Windows provides a graphical interface for controlling the scaler from a computer.

The optional IR 901 remote control, which has most of the front panel controls.

Features and Options

Features

Six video inputs

Input 1 — Five BNC connectors on the rear panel accept RGBHV/RGBS/ RGsB computer video for pass-through, or HDTV YUV video for passthrough.

Input 2 — Five BNC connectors on the rear panel accept RGBHV/RGBS/ RGsB as pass-through computer video, RGBcS, and component video (interlaced and progressive).

Inputs 3 to 5 — Three pairs of BNC connectors on the rear panel accept S-video or composite video signals.

Input 6 — DVS 406 D and DVS 406 AD are equipped with an SDI connector for a serial digital interface signal.

Buffered video outputs — Five rear-panel BNC connectors and one VGA-type 15-pin HD connector provide connections for RGB or component video (YUV) output. Both outputs (the BNCs and the 15-pin HD connector) are active at all times for simultaneous output.

Six balanced or unbalanced stereo audio inputs — The audio versions of the DVS 406 (406 A and 406 AD) are equipped with six rear panel captive screw connectors that accept audio inputs. Each input’s audio level level can be individually set.

One balanced or unbalanced stereo audio output — One line level output is provided on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw terminals.

Audio breakaway — Audio and video can be switched separately via RS-232.

Three ways to control the scaler — The scaler’s front panel, a computer or other RS-232 control device, or the optional IR 901 remote control can all be used to control the scaler.

Scaled outputs — The DVS 406 offers 55 different output rates.

RS-232 configuration — The DVS 406 can be configured by using the Extron control software for Windows, or by using a third party control system.

Triple-Action Switching— With this method, a blank screen is displayed while the DVS 406 switches between inputs.

Accu-RATE Frame Lock— The Extron Accu-RATE Frame Lock™ (patent pending) eliminates artifacts from scaled motion video by eliminating frame rate conversion. It locks the output frame rate to the input frame rate of the active input. The result is a switching system that eliminates image tears and other artifacts from motion video.

Dynamic Motion Interpolation(DMI) — This video processing technique is an advanced motion prediction and compensation method that treats motion content and still content with different algorithms to yield high fidelity images.

Introduction, cont’d

3:2 pulldown detection for NTSC and 2:2 film detection for PAL video sources — These advanced film mode processing features help maximize image detail and sharpness for video sources that originated from film. When film is converted to NTSC video, the film frame rate has to be matched to the video frame rate in a process called 3:2 pulldown. Jaggies and other image artifacts can result if conventional deinterlacing techniques are used on film-source video. The DVS 406’s advanced film mode processing recognizes signals that originated from film. The

DVS 406 then applies video processing algorithms that optimize the conversion of video that was made with the 3:2 pulldown process. This results in richly detailed images with sharply defined lines. A similar process is used for PAL film-source video.

Versatile mounting options — The DVS 406 can be rack mounted, or it can be placed on a table or other furniture. Rubber feet and rack mounting hardware are included.

Options and accessories

The DVS 406’s optional equipment includes:

IR 901 remote control — Extron’s IR 901 (part #70-152-01) is an infrared remote control which replicates all of the front panel controls of the DVS 406 except the Menu and Next buttons.

SDI input card — Serial digital interface (SDI) input can be added to the DVS 406 and 406 A models by the installation of an SDI input card (part #70-168-01).

Audio I/O card — Audio input/output connectors capability can be added to the DVS 406 and 406 D models by installing an audio card

(part #70-151-01). The captive screw connectors of the audio card supports both balanced and unbalanced stereo audio input and output.
