1. Introduction

1.1 General

Thank you for purchasing Hall Research’s SC-VHD-HD. This unit can
convert and scale Component Video (YPbPr) or VGA video from PC along
with audio into an HDMI™ signal. The unit takes advantage of the HDMI™
signal's ability to embed audio with video. For convenience, both stereo
analog and optical digital audio inputs and outputs are provided.

The SC-VHD-HD has the ability to output a wide range of resolutions and
refresh rates regardless of the input timing and resolution. The output
resolution can automatically match the native resolution of the display
connected to its output (based on the EDID setting of the display), or it can
be specified by the user.

The video processor combines the functions of a video scaler, scan­converter, and format transformer. The SC-VHD-HD also includes a
horizontal mirroring feature, which is useful for Teleprompters and rear
projection systems.

The unit encodes the audio input signal from TOSLink (Optical) or Analog
(L/R) to both digital and analog formats and outputs it on HDMI™ along with
video. For convenience, the unit features integrated mounting brackets.

The SC-VHD-HD features an OSD menu for configuration, picture setup,
system information and other advanced options.
