The Extron RGB 118 and RGB 118 PLUS are Universal Computer-Video Interfaces compatible with computer monitor video signals such as CGA, EGA, VGA, MCGA, IBM PS/2, MAC II, Super VGA and more. Providing an RGB bandwidth range of 150 MHz (rise and fall time of 4 nS) and a horizontal frequency range of 15-100 kHz, the RGB 118 and RGB 118 PLUS allow any compatible computer to be connected via simple MBC or ICWK input cable change.
Features
· Universal compatibility
· 120 MHz RGB video bandwidth (-3db)
· LED power indicator
· Horizontal centering with ON/OFF switch
· Three position peaking/sharpness and gain control switch settings
· Variable gain controls (R,G,B)
Introduction to the RGB 118 & RGB 118 PLUS
· Serration pulse removal switch
· Sync on green switch for output
· Automatic sync stripping from RGB
· Blue enhancement (TTL only)
· MBC power output jack
· External control knobs
· Metal enclosure
· MBC interface cable required
· Simple installation and operation
* LCD scan-rate display of horizontal and vertical frequencies * SRI – holding the RGB 118 PLUS up to the face of a computer’s
monitor will display the horizontal and vertical scan-rates on the LCD readout without any attached input cables.
* Vertical centering with ON/OFF switch
* The bottom three features apply only to the RGB 118 PLUS
