Setup Guide — DA RGB/YUV Series
This card provides quick start instructions for an experienced
installer to set up and operate an Extron DA2/4/6 RGB
or DA 6 YUV A distribution amplifier.
N
The DA RGBHV models buffer and distribute
RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, and RsGsBs video.
The DA6 YUV A buffers and distributes
component video and digital audio. The DA
can also buffer and distribute RGBS, RGsB,
and RsGsBs video. By using the digital audio connections for composite sync rather than
audio, the DA can distribute RGBS video.
Installation
Step 1 — Mounting
Turn off or disconnect all equipment power sources and mount the transmitter and receiver
as required.
DA2 RGBHV —
Use an optional RSU 129 1U Rack Shelf for rack mounting.
Use an optional MBU 125 Under-Desk Mount Kit to mount the DA under
furniture.
Use an optional MBD 129 Thru-Desk Mount Kit to mount the DA through
furniture.
All other DAs —
Use the included rack mounting bracket for rack or through-desk mounting.
Use an optional MBU 149 1U Enclosure Under-Desk Mount Kit to mount
the DA under furniture.
Step 2 — Video input (all models)
Connect the RGB or component video input as shown. You can connect RGsB or RsGsBs
video to a DA6 YUV A. You can also connect RGBS video to a DA6 YUV A by connecting the
composite sync (S) input to the digital audio input BNC.

Step 3 — Digital audio input (DA6 YUV A only)
Connect a digital audio source to the input Digital Audio connector.

AUDIO
If you are using the DA to buffer RGBS video, connect the composite sync (S)
input to this connector in place of the digital audio.

Rev. A 01 10
Step 4 — Video outputs
(all models)
Connect RGB or component video
displays or other devices as shown.
Make connections as shown at right.
You can use a DA6 YUV A to buffer
RGsB or RsGsBs video. You can also
output RGBS video by connecting
the composite sync (S) plane on the
digital audio BNC to the composite
sync (S) input of the video displays
or other devices.
Step
5 — Digital audio
outputs (DA6 YUV A only)
Connect digital audio devices to the output Digital Audio connectors. If you
are using the DA to buffer RGBS video, connect this BNC to the composite
sync (S) input of the video displays or other devices.
Step 6 — Mute connector (all, excluding DA6 YUV A)
Each active pin of the 9-pin D
connector is assigned to one
output of the DA (pin 2 is
assigned to all DA outputs).
Short and latch an active pin
to ground to mute the R, G,
and B video planes of that
output.
Step
7 — DIP switches
The DAs have two rear panel DIP switches; one to turn gain and peaking

GAIN/PEAK
ON
on and off (Spare on the DA6 YUV A) and one to turn AC coupling on and off.
Gain/Peak (RGB units only) —
On (up) applies gain and peaking. Use this
position for long cable runs (up to 200 feet using Extron MHR cable). Off
(down) turns off gain or peaking. Use this position for short cable runs.
AC/DC switch —
On (up) when the signal source has a high DC offset. Off (down) is the
default position for the best picture quality.
Step
8 — Power
Plug in a standard IEC power cord from a 100 to 240 VAC, 50 - 60 Hz power source into this
receptacle.
Operation
After all devices are powered up, the system is fully operational. If any problems are
encountered, verify that the cables are routed and connected properly and that all display
devices have identical resolutions and refresh rates. If your problems persist, call the Extron
