C2-3300 SERIES OPERATION MANUAL
3 CAPABILITY, DEVICE FEATURES AND PRODUCT
FEATURES
3.1 Device Capabilities
The C2-3300 series uses the proprietary CORIO®2 Engine to perform its functions,
being the second generation of the successful CORIO®products. The CORIO®2
technology is a powerful toolset for any application requiring high quality video
signal conversion or image manipulation.
All units in the series feature a single video processing and scaling engine, with
some units also featuring video mixing, keying, edge-blending, fader and audio
capabilities.
These functions allow the flexibility for handling a wide range of inputs and outputs,
all on universal HD15 (‘VGA’) connectors, with adapters for composite and YC (Svideo) inputs.
All units are at one in the professional, broadcast and display environments. The
C2-3300 series offers a range of high-level image processing functions – with each
model designed to fulfill a particular need.
Each unit provides high quality up, down and cross conversion from standard video
formats to Computer or HDTV signals. NTSC and PAL video standards are
supported.
The output is selectable as any computer resolution up to 2048x2048 at any vertical
refresh rate and all HDTV resolutions up to 1080p. A wide variety of computer
signal formats are available to support PC, Mac and Workstation formats.
The C2-3310 and C2-3360 have Differential Stereo Audio switching provided by an
integral 8 x stereo audio routing switcher. The eight balanced inputs may be set to
follow any of the video inputs. Connections are made via terminal blocks on the rear
panel. Adjustment of audio volume and balance is possible (MUTE, -15dB to
+15dB), plus separate routed outputs for program and preview.
The C2-3350 and C2-3360 units have a wide variety of additional capabilities,
including Genlock, Picture-In-Picture, Chromakey, Lumakey, Edge-blending and
Mixing. The Key Mode allows any two video inputs to be keyed over each other.
The keyed image may be faded in and out. Due to the 4:4:4 sampling format,
precise keying at the pixel level can be achieved. The Mix Mode permits glitch-free
mixing between the computer image and external video. The PIP Mode allows the
computer inputs to be inset in a window over any other inputs.

keying where included in the unit’s capabilities. This can be achieved through the
transparent (soft) keys on the front of the unit. Each unit’s video inputs
accommodate multiple video and computer signal formats and resolutions – see
specifications at end of manual for full details.
Ultimate flexibility
The C2-3300 series’ output signal format flexibility assures that the Native
Resolution of virtually any display can be matched. Because of the resolution
calculator (included in the Windows® Control Panel), even new resolutions can be
added to the unit. Signal parameter adjustments can be made for each video input
and are stored in individual non-volatile memories for retrieval once the unit’s power
has been removed. The Video Scaler units employ pixel adaptive motion
compensation to de-interlace fast moving images, and automatic 3:2 Pull-down
efficiently de-interlaces video from 24 fps NTSC film.

C2-3300 SERIES OPERATION MANUAL
Simple Control
The unit can be controlled in various ways. One option is to control it from the front
panel using the transparent (soft) keys on the front of the unit. Another option would
be to control the unit from an infra-red remote control. It can also be controlled via
RS-232 or via Ethernet using the Windows Control Panel.
The Windows Control Panel is available for download from our Internet site and
affords complete control of the unit and adds Scripting to facilitate long, complex
sequence of commands.
Finally, a hardware based switcher like the CORIO®console unit allows the user to
control the unit by mimicking a classic video switcher device.
Upgradeability
The C2-3300 and C2-3310 may be upgraded remotely via firmware to the C2-3350
and C2-3360 units to provide the unrestricted single window PIP, genlock and
mixing functions.
All C2-3300 units benefit from firmware upgradeability, thus reducing product
obsolescence by allowing the installation of the latest version of firmware. This not
only applies to the software used to control the unit, but also to the range of
resolutions stored inside the unit, the addition of new features, and upgrades to the
heart of the image processing hardware – the CORIO®2 scaling engine. See
tvone.com/support for more detail.

5.2 Important Safety Instructions
The AC power cable (Mains Lead) furnished with the unit will conform to the type in
use at your geographic locale. Please compare the plug on your cable with the
three types of power cable plugs currently being shipped to make certain you have
received the correct power cable.
If you did not receive the correct cable, DO NOT attempt to modify the incorrect
cable. Instead, immediately contact your dealer or contact TV One at the sales
office nearest to your geographic location and request the proper cable.

C2-3300 SERIES OPERATION MANUAL
EU AC Mains Lead Plug Example:
AGAIN, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MODIFY AN INCORRECT AC CABLE (MAINS
LEAD). REPLACE IT WITH A CORRECT PART PRIOR TO USING THE C2-7000
series.
Power is never totally removed from the unit when it’s plugged into an active AC
outlet. Pressing the button at the extreme right on the front panel only places the
unit in a powered down mode. This button is a standby switch, not a true off and on
switch. Never remove the unit from a cabinet unless the unit has been completely
disconnected from AC power.
5.3 Factory Reset
To restore all operational parameters to their original condition, first ensure the unit
is in the operational mode (not in Standby red power led illuminated). Press and
hold the keypad ‘joystick’ in and press the standby switch. Unit will then be reset to
default factory settings.
All stored settings except resolutions are lost when the unit is reset. A Firmware
update is the only way to perform a complete factory reset.
5.4 Initial Video Operation Check
The C2-3300 series can be operated via the Front Panel Buttons, an LCD display
and multi-directional switch, via a Windows based utility or via a dedicated CORIO®
Console hat mimics the operation of a classic video switcher, or by use of the TV
One Infrared remote control. For the purposes of initially acquainting you with the
operation of the unit, this manual will address the operation using the Front Panel
controls.
Connect the AC power cable to the unit. (Refer to the diagram below. The AC
power cable connects to the socket labeled “Power 100v – 240v 47-63Hz” located
on the left side of the rear panel as shown.)
18
C2-3300 SERIES OPERATION MANUAL
We’ll be using a Personal Computer for a signal source. Make certain that the
monitor resolution can display 1024 x 768 @ 60Hz as this is the default output
resolution for the C2-3300 series.
Disconnect the cable going from a Personal Computer’s Monitor to the Personal
Computer. Connect the output from the PC video card (the PC connector formerly
used by the monitor cable) to the input labeled “VIDEO INPUT 1” on the rear panel
of the Processor.
Next, take the cable from the PC monitor and connect it to the C2-3300 series’ DVID / or VIDEO Program Output depending on the type of connection the monitor has.
Then connect the AC Power Cable to a working AC outlet, turn on the PC, monitor
and then the C2-3300 series.
Provided you have not changed anything from the Factory Defaults, the monitor will
display output 1024x768@60Hz and the image from the PC on input 1. If this is the
result, the C2-3300 series is passing and processing signals.
5.5 Initial Audio Operation Check
Following on from the video operation initial test, if the unit has the audio option,
connect an audio source to audio Input 1, and an audio amplifier and speakers to
the audio program out.
19
C2-3300 SERIES OPERATION MANUAL
Again, provided you have not changed anything from the Factory Defaults, the
audio signal from input 1 should be audible on the program audio output. If this is
the result, the C2-3300 series is passing and processing signals.
The audio connections are balanced and care should be taken when wiring to
unbalanced (single ended audio sources and drivers).

This can be performed by pressing STANDBY/ON and LOCK-MIX at the same
time. All front panel buttons and IR remote control commands will be disabled, with
the exception of repeating the above combination to un-lock the unit and for storing
the current locked buttons setting (thus letting you make sure the unit always starts
up with the buttons locked). The IR remote’s LOCK and STORE buttons will always
be active, giving another way to turn button/IR remote locking off.
The STANDBY/ON button will flash when the unit’s buttons are locked.
6.3.2 Restore power-on settings
This can be done (without having to turn off the unit) by pressing STANDBY/ON
and the multi-directional switch at the same time until a single beep is heard.
6.3.3 Factory Reset
If you wish to restore all operational parameters to their original condition (for
example, if saved settings prevent the unit from working with your display monitor),
hold the STANDBY/ON and the multi-directional switch in together until two beeps
are heard.
