CHAPTER 3: Installation
Follow the procedure outlined in this chapter to install your ProVideo
Converter or Video Converter II.
3.1 Initial Steps
1. Disconnect your monitor from the monitor port on your computer.
2. Connect one end of the special 6-foot (1.8-m) input cable provided with
the Converter to the monitor port on your computer. (See Section 4.3.3
for more info on this cable.) Plug the other end into the appropriate
connector on the rear panel of the Converter: either the one labeled
VGA IN if you are taking VGA video from an IBM
® PC or compatible
or the one labeled MAC IN if you are taking Macintosh ® video from
an Apple ® Macintosh. See Figures 3-1 and 3-2 on the next page.
3. If you want your monitor to continue to display, connect it to the
appropriate MONITOR output connector, either VGA OUT or
MAC OUT. See the next section for a description of this ouput.
4. Plug the output cord of the power supply provided with the Converter
into the connector labeled POWER. Plug the power supply’s input cord
into the wall outlet to provide power to the Converter. (If you ever need
an AC-line cord specific to another country, call Black Box.)
5. Connect your video equipment to one or more of the Converter’s video
outputs (refer to the next section).
