Product Overview
Description
The IN1403 is a full featured video scaler that combines digital video decoding, advanced video scaling/line multiplication and a 4-input A/V switcher into a single product.
Features
Superb Video Scaling Technology — Employing sophisticated video de-interlacing, scaling and filtering techniques, the IN1403 offers an output signal with outstanding image detail and enhanced brightness that is entirely free of visible scan lines. The scaler automatically senses the origin of the video source material and selects the optimum motion compensation formula to eliminate unwanted artifacts in the output image. The IN1403 employs high bandwidth digital signal processing and high speed digital to analog conversion, combined with effective filtering and sharpness circuitry to maintain and enhance image detail, even at the highest output resolutions.
Advanced Quad Standard Video Decoding — A high quality video decoder in the IN1403 provides accurate video decoding of composite video and S-video signals in the NTSC, PAL, SECAM and NTSC
4.43 video standards. The video decoder employs an advanced 3-line adaptive comb filter for composite video signals and greatly reduces cross-color interference and hanging dots, while maintaining maximum image bandwidth and detail.
Pick the Perfect Resolution — The IN1403 offers a wide range of output resolutions to match the optimum or native resolution of virtually any display device. The IN1403 provides a progressive scan output signal at standard resolutions and refresh rates, ensuring optimal compatibility and exceptional image quality with a wide range of CRT, LCD, DMD, ILA, D-ILA, and plasma display devices.
Selectable Refresh Rate — The IN1403 output vertical refresh rate is adjustable from 60 Hz to 120 Hz By converting PAL (25 Hz) and NTSC (30 Hz) input signals to higher, more ergonomic refresh rates, the IN1403 makes it possible to display a remarkably solid, flicker-free image when using CRT monitors and projectors. The chart on page 18 indicates the output resolutions and refresh rates available on the IN1403.
4-Input Video/Audio Switcher — The IN1403 provides multiple inputs and flexible switching capability to accommodate a variety of applications. Inputs 1, 2, and 3 can each accept a composite video or S-video signal. Input 4 is a 15-pin HD VGA pass-through connector for a computer video signal (passive, no scaling). Stereo audio-follow-video switching is provided for all four inputs.
Memory — The IN1403 can recall previously stored settings with the push of a single button. All audio, video, input and output settings, for each input and each output mode, are stored internally (in memory). Once optimized, all adjustments are automatically recalled every time an input is selected.
Digital Freeze Frame — Provides a high quality still image, useful for applications that require close examination of a specific video frame. Freeze Frame can be enabled/disabled using the front panel FREEZE FRAME button or an RS-232 serial command. Freeze is functional for Inputs 1, 2, and 3. It has no effect on Input 4, which is a passive input.
Video Blank button — Located adjacent to the input selector buttons, the BLANK button allows the video image to be suppressed. When blank is engaged, the output signals go to black but the sync signals continue, ensuring that the data display device retains sync lock. When the BLANK button is pressed a second time, the previously selected input is once again displayed. The blank feature can also be engaged or disengaged using the RS-232 serial command. Video blank is functional for Inputs 1, 2, and 3. It has no effect on Input 4, which is a passive input.
On Screen Menus — Provides easy control over video adjustments including hue, color, contrast, brightness, gamma, sharpness, image size, image position, and edge blanking. Unique image settings can be optimized and stored for each input. Each time an input is selected, all image settings stored for that input are automatically recalled. The on-screen menus also make it easy to verify and adjust advanced settings such as output signal resolution, refresh rate, sync format, RS-232 control options, and reset to factory default.

ce-info@camboard.de
System Info — A handy menu option that uses the on-screen display to show comprehensive information about the input and output signals and scaler settings.
Image Size, Position and Edge Blanking Controls — Individual horizontal and vertical image adjustments make it easy to precisely fit the active video image to the display area and provide for multiple aspect ratios.
Comprehensive Input Adjustment Controls — These input signal adjustments include signal format, aspect ratio and horizontal tracking. Once adjustments are made to optimize input signals, these settings are stored and automatically recalled when the same input source is selected again.
Blue Screen Feature — Provides a full screen blue image for setup and testing purposes. The blue screen output signal (activated via the on-screen menu) is always available, even when the input signal is missing or the input settings are incorrectly adjusted. Blue screen acts as a test signal and is ideal for setting up the output resolution, refresh rate and position settings, and to verify connection to the output display device.
RS-232 Serial Control — Provided for all scaler functions including input selections, image adjustments and output settings. The IN1403’s comprehensive RS-232 control capacity facilitates complete system integration and effortless control when combined with a third party control system.
Dual Outputs — The IN1403 features a 5-BNC output and a 15-pin HD output. Since both are active simultaneously, the IN1403 can directly drive two separate display devices.
Rack Mountable — The IN1403 can be mounted in a 1U rack space using the provided mounting brackets (Extron part # 70-391-01).
Compatibility
Input
The IN1403 Video Scaler accepts composite and S-video signals in the NTSC, PAL, SECAM, and NTSC
4.43 video standards on inputs 1, 2, and 3. The unit automatically senses NTSC, PAL, and SECAM video standards and decodes the signal appropriately. You must select composite video or S-video mode as appropriate for each of these inputs. Input 4 is a passive input (no decoding or scaling) designed to accept a VGA computer video signal.
The IN1403 has stereo audio-follow-video capability. All four stereo audio inputs are compatible with unbalanced line level signals from a computer audio card, CD player, laser disc player, or any other audio device that delivers a stereo line level signal.
Output
The IN1403 features selectable output resolutions (ranging from 640 x 480 up to 1365 x 1024) to match the optimum or native resolution of virtually any display device. The unit provides a progressive output signal at standard resolutions and refresh rates, ensuring optimal compatibility and exceptional image quality with a wide range of CRT, LCD, DMD, D-ILA/LCOS, and plasma display devices.
The output refresh rate is also selectable as desired. When used with LCD, DMD, or LCOS displays, the 60 Hz output setting is recommended. Higher output refresh rates may be selected for use on CRT-type displays in order to reduce flicker and provide enhanced ergonomics. The chart on page 18 indicates the available output resolutions and refresh rates.
The stereo audio output provides an unbalanced line level signal, identical to the input signal. This output can drive any line level compatible audio unit, or a local device such as a set of powered speakers.

Comb/Trap Filter selects either the comb or trap filter (only available with composite video). The comb filter electronically provides excellent Luma/Chroma separation (separates the color from the picture signal). This greatly reduces cross-color interference and hanging dots while maintaining image bandwidth and detail.
The trap filter extracts luminance from the picture. The trap filter is usually the preferred setting when you are running signals from a VCR (as composite video). You may wish to compare both settings to determine which is best for your application.
Neither filter has any effect on S-video signals.

Aspect Ratio: The aspect ratio controls vary the relative image width and height. They can be used to
accommodate various input signal aspect ratios as well as output device aspect ratios. Select the output aspect ratio by choosing the appropriate resolution in the output menu (see the output resolution description on page 14).
Standard: For Standard 1.33 input signals (sometimes referred to as full screen)
Anamorphic: This setting provides vertical image squeezing to accommodate
anamorphically enhanced DVDs
Wide Screen: For wide screen 1.78 input signals (letterbox)
Wider Screen: For wider screen 2.35 input signals (narrow letterbox)
Tomarama: Designed for wide screen (letterbox) signals viewed on 4:3 aspect ratio
displays. Tomarama mode zooms in on the center of the image and crops the image vertically and horizontally so that the black bars above and below the image are removed. In this mode, some image is also lost on the right and left hand edges.
Most DVDs and VCRs and other video sources output a signal with an aspect ratio of 4:3. How this signal is filled with active video information determines its aspect ratio. In the following four examples, four different input aspect ratios are shown on the left as they would be displayed in their native 4:3 format. The same signals are shown on the right as they would appear on 4:3 and 16:9 display devices with the scaler set to various aspect ratios.

Output Resolution: This control lets you select the appropriate resolution for your display device.
The available resolutions are listed in the table under Output modes on page 18. Because the IN1403 only scales up, users must choose an output resolution that is greater than or equal to the input size. For instance, you may not select 640 x 480 output with PAL input signals since PAL has more than 480 lines of video.
Refresh Rate: Allows you to choose the optimal refresh rate for your display device.
Size adjusts the output horizontal and vertical size. It shrinks the size to a percentage of the output
resolution selected. The output size is automatically reset anytime a new input aspect ratio is selected. This setting is useful to manually reduce the height of the output signal when an anamorphic input signal is connected. The IN1403 only scales up; therefore the output size controls will stop at a certain point where the input and output resolution are equal.

Baud Rate: Allows RS-232 remote users to select the baud rate that matches their remote control device system.
Delimiters: Use the on-screen menu to select the desired command code delimiters. Extron scalers can be set to recognize six sets of leading and end codes when you are using an RS-232 remote: parentheses ( ), brackets [ ], braces{ }, slashes \ /, less and greater than < >, and signs !#. If desired, several products may be connected together on the same RS-232 serial control line with each device set for a different delimiter pair. Each unit will only respond to codes sent with the appropriate delimiters and will ignore all other codes.

• Program Version Number
Reset RS-232 Settings: Resets all RS-232 settings to factory default.
Choosing the Optimal Output Resolution and Refresh Rate
Of all the settings on the IN1403, perhaps the most critical adjustment is the output resolution and output refresh rate. Every display device has an optimal or native resolution and an optimal refresh rate. This will vary depending on the type of display technology, if the display has a fixed number of display elements (native resolution), the size of the pixels, the size of the display or display screen, and even the distance of the viewer from the display screen. Setting the IN1403 to the output resolution and refresh rate to match this optimal resolution for your data display will have an enormous impact on the image quality.
Please note that the ideal resolution must also lie within the compatible scan range of the display device. For example, some 27-36" presentation monitors are limited to input signals in the 30-50 kHz range. If the video scaler's output resolution and refresh rate settings are too high, the signal will not be viewable on the display. Before selecting the output resolution and refresh rate, you should check the specifications page in the operation manual for your display device to verify the compatible horizontal scan range and vertical refresh rates. The Large Screen Data projector list and Large Data Display list include signal compatibility information for current and obsolete models of data projectors, retro displays, presentation monitors and plasma displays.
CRT displays: Selecting the golden resolution
While CRT displays do not have a native resolution, they will have a "golden resolution," or sweet spot, for input signal resolution. When the video scaler is set to the golden resolution of the CRT display, the result is a sharp, detailed image without visible scan lines. If the video scaler is set below the golden resolution, the displayed image will have tiny black lines between the image lines. If the video scaler is set above the golden resolution, the lines will actually overlap and the image will appear soft and lose detail because there are more lines and pixels than the display can clearly resolve. When experimenting to find the golden resolution for your CRT display device, it is best to set the output refresh rate at 72 Hz and begin at the output resolution indicated in the chart on page 18. You can then try higher and lower resolutions until you achieve the setting that offers both a solid image and excellent picture detail.

CRT displays: Selecting the optimal refresh rate
CRT displays may tend to flicker at refresh rates below 70 Hz In order to achieve a solid, flicker-free image, an output refresh rate of 72 Hz or 75 Hz is recommended for most CRT displays. You should also experiment with even higher refresh rates to see if they create a better image. In some cases, you will find that the image suddenly appears better at a higher refresh rate, such as 85 Hz
Keep in mind that as the refresh rate is increased, the horizontal scan rate also increases. This places greater higher bandwidth demands on the video distribution system and the display device. If you select a refresh rate that is too high you will actually see a softer image because the signal is exceeding the bandwidth capabilities of the display device. Extremely high refresh rate settings may also create a compatibility problem because a very high refresh rate may result in a signal that is outside the compatible scan rate of the data display.
Fixed pixel displays: Selecting the optimal resolution and refresh rate
Display devices based on LCD, DMD, D-ILA/LCOS, or plasma technology have a specific number of display elements, or pixels. This is also referred to as the "native resolution" of the display device. These devices are usually capable of showing higher or lower resolution signals, but can only do this by scaling the image up or down to the native resolution. In order to avoid additional image scaling it is important to know the native resolution of your display device.
Check your operation manual or the chart on page 17 to determine the native resolution of your display device. The video scaler output should be set to match this native resolution. The video scaler output refresh rate should be set to 60 Hz with most LCD, DMD, LCOS, and plasma displays. Higher refresh rates are not recommended with these display technologies because they usually do not improve the image and may actually cause compatibility problems.

You can adjust the output position without entering the main menu sequence. Any time there are no menus showing on the screen, simply press one of the desired direction. Afterwards, press ENTER to save the output position, or press MENU to exit without saving the setting.
The output position simply moves the image on the monitor. It does not add blank borders or crop any part of the image. However, the apparent effect of blank borders and a cropped image may be due to the image being incorrectly positioned on the monitor. The blue screen signal is available to adjust the output image on the monitor. It as available at any time, even when the input settings are incorrectly adjusted or the input signal is missing entirely. Use the blue screen to adjust the output settings (resolution, refresh rate, size, position and sync format) and to verify the image on the monitor. The video and input settings have no effect on the blue screen. Once the output settings have been properly adjusted and verified on the monitor, the blue screen can be turned off, and the video settings may then be adjusted.

Baud Rate and Protocol:
• 1200-57600 baud
• 9600 baud (default)
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• no parity
Baud Rate Selection:
The IN1402 has a factory default baud rate of 9600 bps and can communicate at baud rates from 1200 up to 57,600. Baud rates can be specified by selecting Advanced Menu on the Main Menu.
The baud rate transmitted must match the baud rate selected on the IN1403.
Command Code Structure and Delimiters:
All commands sent to the unit must contain a leading code, the command code, and an ending code. Each command must be completely executed before the unit will accept a new command. When a command is completed, the unit provides a response code: [OK] indicates that the command was received and executed.
[ERR] indicates that there is a problem with the code and the command was not executed.
The IN1403 can be set to recognize six sets of leading and end codes (delimiters). These are: ( ), [ ], { }, \ /, < >, and !#. The factory default serial delimiters are [ ]. The unit may be set to a different delimiter pair from the Advanced Menu (see page 14). The IN1403 will ignore all commands that do not contain the appropriate delimiters.
A complete command consists of
[ The leading code
CH4 The command code. In this case, CH4 would select Input 4.
] The ending code
Sample command codes:
[CH1] Select Input 1
[FRZ1] Activate Freeze Frame
Serial Cable Connection:
When controlling only one IN1403 unit, connect the RS-232 cable as follows:
Controller Transmit to IN1403 Receive
Controller Ground to IN1403 Ground
Controller Receive to IN1403 Transmit
When controlling multiple IN1403 units, connect the RS-232 cable as follows:
Controller Transmit to Each IN1403 Receive
Controller Ground to Each IN1403 Ground
Controller Receive to Only one IN1403 Transmit
When controlling multiple units, the Controller Receiver Terminal and each IN1403 Transmit
Terminal is left unconnected. Multiple IN1403 Transit Lines may not be connected together; otherwise signal contention from multiple units will result. Therefore, “receive” information is only available from one IN1403 in this configuration. Each unit must be set to different delimiters.

Troubleshooting
Problem: There is no image on the display device.
• Solution 1: Make sure that the power cable is securely plugged into the unit and the A/C
source.
• Solution 2: Make sure the A/C source is live.
• Solution 3: Verify that the power switch is turned on for the video source, the IN1403,
and the monitor.
• Solution 4: Verify the connection to the output display device. Even with no input signal, the IN1403 menu can be displayed. Press MENU or ENTER to gain access to the menu screen.
• Solution 5: Select an output resolution and refresh rate compatible with the display device being used. Use the default power-up buttons to select an output mode without the menu present, and then turn on the blue screen to verify these settings.
• Solution 6: The output resolution must be less that the input (the IN1403 can only scale up). Select an output resolution that is greater than or equal to the input size.
• Solution 7: The display device may not accept certain sync formats. Verify the display device sync capability and select the IN1403 output sync using the power-up default buttons.
Problem: There is no audio output.
• Solution 1: Verify that power is present and that the power switch is turned on for the audio source, the IN1403, and the amplifier/speakers.
• Solution 2: Verify that the audio source is connected to the correct input and that the source volume has not been turned down or muted.
• Solution 3: The audio output of the IN1403 is line level audio only. It should be connected to a mixer/amplifier or to amplified “computer type” speakers.
• Solution 4: Increase the volume using the volume UP button.
• Solution 5: The mute may be activated. Press MUTE to deactivate the function.
Problem: The image on the display device is scrambled.
• Solution: Select an output resolution and refresh rate compatible with the display device being used. Use the default power-up buttons to select an output mode without the menu present, and then turn on the blue screen to verify these settings.
Problem: The image on the display device is cropped on the left side.
• Solution 1: Increase the output H-Position to line up the image on the display device. Use the blue screen.
• Solution 2: Adjust the monitor position or size controls to fit the image on the display device. Use the blue screen.

Problem: The image on the display device is cropped on the right side.
• Solution 1: Reduce the output H-Position to line up the image on the display device. Use the blue screen.
• Solution 2: Adjust the monitor position or size controls to fit the image on the display device. Use the blue screen.
Problem: The image on the display device is cropped on the top.
• Solution 1: Increase the output V-Position to line up the image on the display device. Use the blue screen.
• Solution 2: Adjust the monitor position or size controls to fit the image on the display device. Use the blue screen.
Problem: The image on the display device is cropped on the bottom.
• Solution 1: Reduce the output V-Position to line up the image on the display device. Use the blue screen.
• Solution 2: Adjust the monitor position or size control to fit the image on the display device. Use the blue screen.
Problem: The display device has a double image.
• Solution: The IN1403 cannot separate multiple signal formats. Make sure that only one signal is connected to each input.
Problem: The image on the display device is black & white (no color).
• Solution: Set the input signal format to match the input signal connected to the rear of the unit.
Problem: The picture on the display device has hooking along the top.
• Solution 1: Increase the input horizontal tracking to compensate for poor quality video signals, such as from a VCR.
• Solution 2: The display device may need different sync serrations. Choose a different output sync from the sync format menu.
Problem: The image is frozen.
• Solution: Freeze is activated. Press FREEZE to deactivate the freeze frame feature.
Problem: The image on the display device is the wrong shape.
• Solution: The input aspect ratio is set incorrectly. Adjust the input aspect ratio to match the input video signal.
Problem: The image on the display device appears fuzzy.
• Solution 1: Adjust the video sharpness until the image regains its detail.
• Solution 2: Adjust the video noise filter until the image is sharp.
• Solution 3: Change the comb or trap filter setting (applicable only in composite video
mode).
Problem: The Output Resolution will not decrease.
• Solution: The IN1403 can only scale up. Resolutions that would result in scaling down are not available.
