The VGA to Video Ultimate Plus converts VGA resolutions
into S-VHS, Composite, or RGBS video by translating the
horizontal and vertical scanning of the computer video
signal into a format that an ordinary TV can display or a
VCR can record.
Many computer-generated images look good on TV.
And now images that require a 1600 x 1200 resolution—such
as certain spreadsheets, CAD, and other graphics—look just
as sharp on a TV, thanks to the converter’s new “kangaroo”
video encoder.
Converting PC images to TV is smart. Since TV is more
economical and available nearly anywhere, you don’t have
to buy an expensive large-screen monitor. Just put that old
TV to good use!
To display the same image from your computer on multiple
TVs, simply connect one TV to the next using a Composite video
cable or the included S-Video cable between the Video In and
Video Out ports on the Ultimate Plus. However, because of
signal degradation, we suggest not using more than five TVs.
The amount of signal degradation depends on the quality of
the TVs and the cable lengths.
And, if your TV only has a coax cable input, you’ll need
an RF modulator to convert the Composite video signal from
the device. Or you can use a VCR to act as the RF modulator.
The front panel of the Ultimate Plus includes genlock
controls, which ensure precise timing of multiple video devices
when they’re used together.
The device also features 24-bit true color conversion,
enabling you to adjust the brightness, contrast, hue, and
color and eliminate the flicker commonly seen on large-screen
TV displays.
You can perform all of these functions using the remote
control with integrated wireless mouse. Even better, you can
also size the picture (using underscan, overscan, and super
underscan), zoom in on nine screen areas, freeze and
unfreeze the frame, position the mouse pointer, and toggle
between the computer or external video screen.
