Congratulations on your purchase of the A/V Scaler Pro. Your complete
satisfaction is very important to us.
Gefen
Gefen delivers innovative, progressive computer and electronics add-on solutions
that harness integration, extension, distribution and conversion technologies.
Gefen’s reliable, plug-and-play products supplement cross-platform computer
systems, professional audio/video environments and HDTV systems of all sizes
with hard-working solutions that are easy to implement and simple to operate.
The Gefen A/V Scaler Pro
This device offers a plug and play solution for upscaling and switching
between multiple analog and digital audio/video formats for an engaging HDTV
experience. Scale analog and digital video up to 1080p / 1920x1200, and output
as digital HDMI with digital audio. Easily adjust key video aspects such as color,
aspect ratio, and noise reduction with the Gefen Audio/Video Scaler Pro. Digitize
and scale audio and video in different formats into outgoing HDMI together with
external digital audio (S/PDIF and TOSLINK).
The A/V Scaler Pro works with all of today’s audio/video sources including set-top
boxes, DVD players and gaming consoles including the Xbox 360 and PS3.
It supports one component source with analog audio, one composite or s-video
source with analog audio, one DVI source with analog audio and two HDMI
sources with digital audio. Audio from the analog sources is digitized in HDMI
format.
The DVI-I input with analog audio enables direct PC connections, supporting
both VGA and DVI formats that can be used for analog or digital graphics card
input. With support for analog stereo audio, the unit supports all multimedia
applications. On-screen menus accessible through the IR remote allow for an
easy system setup and image adjustment to accommodate different viewing
modes and screen sizes. Discrete codes have been added to the IR to enable
complete control over switching. An RS232 control port is also included.
The A/V Scaler Pro is rack mountable, fi tting in all standard racks, making it
suitable for professional installations with rack ears or as a stand-alone solution.
How It Works
Connect all audio and video source devices to the A/V Scaler Pro. Connect your
HDMI display to the output on the rear of the unit. Power on the unit and use
the included IR remote to navigate the GUI and change settings. All scaling and
analog to digital format conversions are done automatically for superior audio
and video output.
