Operation and Applications

Examples of remote operation:

• To select Composite Video Input, requires momentary contact

between pins #7 and #6.

• To select S-VHS, requires contact between pins #8, and #6.

• This remote control port also provides a tally output for the selected

input. For example, if Composite Video is the selected input, then
pin #1 (Composite Video status) will have a 4 vdc signal present.

Applications

The illustration here shows a CD 400 used to decode Composite
Video or S-Video from a VCR or a Laserdisc with output to a data
monitor or projector.

The second illustration
shows a CD 400 used in
Video Loopback (VLB)
mode, together with a
system switcher. Details
for this operation are
included in Extron's
System 8/10 Plus
Switcher manual.

This application allows
the CD 400 to decode
any Video or S-Video
signal that comes into
the system switcher.
This saves the cost of
more decoders.
