Inputs #1 to #6

UNIVERSAL COMPUTER & VIDEO INPUTS:

Universal Inputs accept computer sources (RGBHV, RGBS,

and RGsB (SOG) signals), standard TV/VIDEO sources

(Composite video, S.VIDEO), Component video (YUV,

RGBS & RGsB (SOG)), and HDTV sources (480p, 720p &

1080i).

HD15: 1x Universal Analog input on female HD15 connector.

COMPOSITE VIDEO SOURCES:

The Composite Video signal, usually called COMPOSITE

or VIDEO, is available on most video equipment (VCR,

DVD, CAMCORDER…), but is also the lowest in picture

quality. The video standard of this signal can be NTSC, PAL

or SECAM. The signal is transmitted on a single coaxial

cable, and is connected to the video equipment with an

HD15 connector.

For inputs #1 to #4: connect a 1x BNC from your composite

source, to the HD15 input of the device.

S.VIDEO SOURCES:

The S.VIDEO signal, also called Y/C, HI-8™, or S.VHS™, is

available on DVD players and high quality VCRs (S.VHS).

The S.VIDEO signal in which the Luminance (Y) and

Chrominance (C) information are separately transmitted,

gives a higher quality picture than the Composite video

signal. The S.VIDEO connector is usually a 4-pin Mini-DIN

connector also called Oshiden™ connector.

For inputs #1 to #4: connect a 2x BNC from your S.VIDEO,

Y (G/Y) & C (R/R-Y), to the HD15 input of the device.

COMPONENT VIDEO SOURCES:

The Component Video signal, also called YUV

(Y, Pr, Pb) or BETACAM™, is widely used in

broadcasting and is available on high-quality DVD

players. The COMPONENT signal is transmitted with

3 coaxial cables, and also has a better quality picture than

COMPOSITE and S.VIDEO signals. The COMPONENT

connectors are usually RCA (x3), or BNC (x3).

For inputs #1 to #4: connect a HD15 to 3x BNC cable

between the HD15 connector of the device and your

Component source.
