Extron CVC 300
Component Video Converter
Introduction
The Extron CVC 300 Component Video Converter converts all standard component video formats: NTSC/PAL, DVD, and Betacam®, to RGBHV or RGBS; and converts SMPTE HDTV component video to RGBHV. The CVC 300 can also strip sync-on-green (SOG) from RGsB video. The converter outputs RGBHV or RGBS video on BNC connectors. The figure below shows a typical CVC 300 application.

Mounting

1
The component video input formats include SMPTE, HDTV and Betacam component video. The RGsB video input can be computer video or NTSC/PAL video.
The 1U high, quarter rack width, CVC 300 converter can be mounted to a rack, under a desk or tabletop, or on a projector bracket. It can be rack mounted using one-quarter of a 1U Universal Rack Shelf, RSU 129 (part #60-190-01) or 1U Basic
UL rack mounting guidelines
Rack Shelf, RSB 129 (part #60-604-01).
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the installation of the CVC 300 into a rack.
Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the 1. equipment is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the converter in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma = +104 °F, +40 °C) specified by Extron.
CVC 300 • Installation
Use 2 mounting holes on opposite corners.
(2) 4-40 x 3/16" Screws
1U Universal Rack Shelf
Both front false faceplates use 2 screws.
QuarterRackStandardShelf
1/4 Rack Width Front False Faceplate
1/2 Rack Width Front False Faceplate
Mounting
Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that 2. the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so 3. that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to 4. the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable 5. grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

Mounting instructions

Rack mount the CVC 300 as follows:
Remove the feet from the CVC, if they were previously 1. installed.
Mount the CVC 300 on the rack shelf, using two 2. 4-40 x 3/16" screws in opposite corners (under the shelf) to secure the converter to the shelf (see below).

Power supply wiring
N
Wire the supplied male power connector (plug) as shown below.
This product is intended to be powered by a UL Listed
power supply with an output rated at 12 VDC, 2 A.
C
N
To verify the polarity before connection, plug in the power supply with no load and check the output with a voltmeter.
W
As an alternative, an Extron PS 123 Universal 12 VDC Power Supply, part #60-814-01, can power multiple Extron 12 VDC devices using only one AC power connector.
Insert the wired plug into the power connector on the rear panel, then connect AC power.
Power supply voltage polarity is critical. Incorrect
polarity can damage the power supply and the product. Identify the power cord negative lead by the ridges on the side of the cord.
The length of the exposed (stripped) copper wires is
important. The ideal length is 3/16” (5 mm). Longer bare wires can short together. Shorter wires are not as secure in the captive screw connectors and could be pulled out.
Do not tin the stripped power supply leads. Tinned wires are not as secure in the captive screw connectors and could be pulled out.
The two power cord wires must be kept separate while
the power supply is plugged in. Remove power before wiring.
