English

Never open the device housing. If you do so, the warranty will become void and may lead to permanent damage to the device.

After a transport, wait until the device has reached ambient temperature before using it for the first time. With extreme temperature or humidity fluctuations, condensation can lead to a formation of moisture that can cause an electrical short circuit.

Always handle the cables by the connector and do not pull on the cables themselves. Do not place any heavy objects on the cables or connectors and ensure that the cable shielding does not become cracked. When connecting the device, ensure that the cable is not too taut and the connector plug is not stressed. Never make knots in any of the cables or tie them together with other cables. All cables should be positioned so that nobody can trip over them and they cannot cause an obstruction.

Children and persons with disabilities

Electrical devices do not belong in the hands of children. Persons with physical, mental or sensory disabilities should also only use electrical devices within the scope of their abilities. Never allow children or persons with disabilities to use electrical devices unsupervised unless they have been instructed accordingly or are supervised by a person responsible for their safety. Children should always be supervised to ensure that they do not play with this device. Small parts can be fatal if swallowed. Always keep plastic packaging out of reach also.

It poses a suffocation risk!

Electromagnetic compatibility

The guidelines for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) must be adhered to when connecting the device. Ensure that there is a minimum distance of 1m from high frequency and magnetic sources of interference (e.g. TVs, loudspeakers, mobile phones, etc.) in order to prevent malfunctions and loss of data.

Back up

Please ensure that you back up your data to external storage media after every update. Damage claims for lost data or for consequential losses as a result of lost data are excluded.

SilverCrest USB 2.0 Video Grabber SVG 2.0 A2

First use

Installing the software

The required software (drivers and applications) must first be installed before you plug in the device. Important files can be overwritten and altered during installation of programs or drivers. You should back up the contents of your hard drive before installing the program so that you can still access your original files if there is a problem with the installation.

If your operating system is configured so that the installation of software and drivers is only accepted if they are signed (approved by Microsoft), an appropriate dialog box will appear. This does not mean that the driver is defective, but only indicates that it does not have the Microsoft signature. You can ignore this advice. Click on "Next" to install the driver.

Insert the enclosed CD ROM into the drive and the installation menu will open automatically.

Click on the desired national flag to select the relevant language.

Install the software (Power Director) and the driver according to the directions on the screen.

Restart your PC after installation to complete the process.

If the installation wizard does not automatically start when the CD ROM is inserted, then the Autorun function of your CD drive is deactivated. Then proceed as follows:

Open the Explorer file or Windows Explorer.

Double-click on your CD drive with the left mouse button.

Then start the Autorun function by double-clicking with the left mouse button on the Autorun application (Autorun.exe).

A description of the software can be found on the CD-ROM under the item "Power Director Help".

Video / S-Video signal

To transfer images, connect either the S-Video cable (3) (same connectors at both ends of the cable) or the yellow connector of the AV cable (4) (yellow, red and white connectors at both ends of the cable) with the respective jacks of the adapter and your desired source.

Do not plug in both the S-Video cable and the yellow RCA cable at the same time.

Audio signal

For audio transmission, connect the red and white connectors of the AV cable (4) (yellow, red and white connectors at both ends of the cable) with the respective jacks of the adapter and your desired source.

SCART adapter

If your source does not have a video or S-Video connection, use either the S-Video cable (3) (same connectors at both ends of the cable) or the yellow connector of the AV cable (4) (yellow, red and white connectors at both ends of the cable) with the SCART adapter and then connect this to your source in order to transfer images.

For audio transmission, also connect the red and white connectors of the AV cable (4) (yellow, red and white connectors at both ends of the cable) to the SCART adapter and your desired source.

Plug the Video Grabber's USB connector into a free USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port, ensuring your PC is switched on. Use the enclosed extension cable (6) if necessary to extend the reach of the cable. If possible, ensure that the Video Grabber is directly connected to your PC (and not via a USB hub). Only use the device with a USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 connection.

The operating system will automatically detect the Video Grabber. Follow the instructions on the screen.

Use the enclosed software (Power Director) to record your source. The software provides you with detailed instructions in electronic form.
