switch to compensate for signal degradation caused by long (over about 125 feet) cable lengths. Choose the setting that provides the best image on the output display device. Select from these options:
Unity (no gain or peaking) — The output level is
the same as that of the input and with no added peaking.
50% — This setting increases the output signal
level and adds 50% of the maximum peaking to the signal.
100% — This setting increases the output signal
level and adds 100% of the maximum peaking to the signal.
If the signal cable between the interface and the display device is shorter than 125 feet, and the gain/ peak switch is set to a setting other than unity, the image may be overly bright (overcompensated).

(75 ohm vs. Hi Z) in the RGB 138xi, and it has no function (spare) in the RGB 168xi.
1 — SOG (sync on green)
ON — When this switch is set to On, the
interface will output sync on green.
OFF — When the SOG switch is set to Off, the
interface outputs both separate horizontal and vertical sync (on the H and V connectors) and composite sync (on the S connector) for RGBHV or RGBS, respectively.
2 — DDSP™ (Digital Display Sync Processing™)
This feature may be necessary for digital display devices such as LCD (liquid crystal display), DLP (digital light processing) and plasma displays. Use this option if the image still is not displayed properly after all other options, such as serration pulse removal and video termination changes, have been explored.
ON — When this switch is set to On, the
interface uses Digital Display Sync Processing instead of Advanced Digital Sync Processing. DDSP does not process the sync signal.
DDSP will disable horizontal and vertical
shift controls.
OFF — When this switch is set to Off, the
interface performs sync processing operations, such as horizontal shifting, with ADSP .
3 — SERR (serration pulse) — Many display
devices, including LCD and DLP projectors and plasma displays, must have serration pulses removed from the sync signal in order to display

accomplished in a number of ways when using a universal interface like the RGB 138xi:
1. Using a laptop breakout cable (LBC) connected to a laptop or desktop computer with no local monitor,
2. Connecting a local monitor to the breakout from an MBC cable,
3. Setting the 75 ohm termination switch on the interface when using an MBC cable without a local monitor attached,
4. Using a termination adapter with an MBC cable and no local monitor attached, or
5. Using an MBC buffer cable.
The input to the interface is high impedance, and for the video signal to be at a proper level (not blooming) 75 ohm termination is needed for the computer signal. The switch provides a method
of termination to prevent blooming

Setting Internal Jumpers
The jumpers inside the interface(s) are set at the factory to meet the requirements of most systems. However, you can change a jumper setting to meet the needs of a particular system.
Changes to internal jumper settings must be performed by authorized service personnel only.
The user-configurable, internal jumpers control the following functions:
• horizontal and vertical sync polarity, and
• vertical sync pulse width. Follow these steps to change the jumper settings. The
RGB 138xi is shown for illustration, but the steps apply to both models.
1. Remove power from the interface (if it is connected) by disconnecting the AC power cord from the unit.
2. Open the cover of the interface (the top half of the enclosure), as shown below. Remove the screws from the enclosure, and lift the cover straight up.
Do not touch any switches or electronic components inside the interface. Doing so could damage the interface.

4. Configure the jumpers. To configure the jumpers, use pliers to pull the jumper shunt off the pins, then place the jumper on the appropriate pins.
Changing jumper settings
The jumpers perform the following functions:
J-20: Sync polarity jumper — This jumper adjusts the
output sync polarity. Horizontal (H) and vertical
(V) sync output can either follow input sync
Negative
ollow
polarity, or be forced to negative.
• If the jumper is placed on pins 1 and 2,
1
output H and V sync polarities will be forced to negative.
• If the jumper is placed on pins 2 and 3, output sync polarities follow input sync polarity: the output sync signals’ polarity will be the same as the input polarity. This is the default setting.
J-40: Vertical sync width jumper — This jumper
adjusts the vertical sync pulse width. Some
digital display devices have very specific
Wide
hort
requirements for incoming sync pulse width. If no picture displays, the picture cuts in and out, or the picture is scrambled, try adjusting
1
the vertical sync pulse width or switching from ADSP to DDSP.
• If the jumper is placed on pins 1 and 2, the output vertical sync pulse will be short (narrow).
• If the jumper is placed on pins 2 and 3, the output vertical sync pulse will be wide. This is the default setting.
5. Replace and fasten the enclosure cover, reversing step 2. If adapter plates will be installed next, this step can be omitted.
Installing Adapter Plates
The RGB 138xi and RGB 168xi offer the ability to incorporate a variety of optional architectural adapter plates for pass­through audio and/or video connections. Each interface’s front panel can hold up to four (4) input adapter plates. The rear panel can hold up to two (2) output adapter plates.
Blank plates (three double height) are included with the interface to cover unused spaces. Other adapter plates must be ordered separately.
The input plates attach to the front panel. Output cables, attached to the rear of each plate, pass through the interface enclosure and rear panel and are held in place by clamps or, where an output plate is installed, may be wired directly to the rear output plate connectors. Some adapters require cables to be soldered to the input/output plate connectors.

Adapter plates should be attached to the output cables and interface before the interface is installed in a rack or in furniture. The screws for installing the adapter plates are built into the plates, so no additional screws will be needed.
Adapter plate installation must be performed
by authorized service personnel only.
Follow these steps to install adapter plates. The RGB 138xi is shown for illustration, but the steps apply to both models.
1. Make sure that the power is removed from the interface by disconnecting the AC power cord from the unit.
2. Open the cover of the interface (the top half of the enclosure), as shown below. Remove the screws from the enclosure, and lift the cover straight up.
Do not touch any switches or electronic components inside the interface. Doing so could damage the interface.

Troubleshooting
When the interface, computer and output devices have been properly installed, and the power is turned on, the image should appear on screen, and sound should be audible.
If the image does not appear or there is no sound
1. Ensure that all devices are plugged in.
2. Make sure that each device is receiving power. The power indicator LED should light if the interface is powered on.
3. Check the cabling and the audio connector wiring, and make adjustments as needed.
4. Verify that the video input termination DIP switch on the RGB 138xi and the ID bit termination DIP switches on the RGB 168xi have been set correctly.
5. For digital display devices, try switching between ADSP and DDSP using the rear panel DDSP DIP switch.
6. Call Extron’s customer support hotline if needed.
If the image does not display correctly
1. If the output image looks too green, make sure that the sync on green feature (SOG DIP switch) is turned off.
2. If the picture bends or flags at the top of the screen, set the SERR (serration pulse) DIP switch to Off.
3. For a display device that experiences intermittent glitches, try switching between ADSP and DDSP using the rear panel DDSP DIP switch.
4. If the picture “hangs off” the edges of the screen, adjust the centering controls.
5. If the edges of the image seem to exceed their boundaries or if thin lines and sharp edges look thick and fuzzy, try changing the GAIN/PEAK setting.
6. If the image still does not display correctly, call Extron’s customer support hotline.
