Interface

Figure 1. Typical RGB 192 Application

The RGB 192 allows for furniture and under-desk mounting. It has an external switching power supply for worldwide

power compatibility.

Features

• Flexible mounting options — The interface can be mounted under a desk or podium, mounted on a rack, or

through a desk with optional mounting kits.

• Stereo audio — The interface outputs unbalanced PC stereo audio as line level, balanced stereo (or, depending on

a DIP switch position, mono).

• Level (boost) control — A front panel control compensates for signal losses from long cable runs.

• Horizontal centering control — A front panel control allows a horizontal centering adjustment.

• Sync processing — Using regular sync processing to allow centering control (H-shift) can create problems with

some digital display devices as a result of the sync delay. The Extron DDSP, ensures proper displays without altering

sync pulse timing or width. The sync processing type is selected via the front panel DIP switches.

• RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB outputs — Select the output format via cabling setup and front panel DIP switch.

• Serration pulse switch — This DIP switch-selectable feature adds or strips the serration pulses from the output

signal to make it compatible with digital display devices. Use the serration pulse switch if ﬂagging or bending occurs

at the top of the video display.

input. The image on the right shows how to wire the audio jack.

CCOMPUTER INPUT (see figure4 on the previous page) — Connect the analog

computer-video source to this 15-pin HD female connector.

NOTE: Most laptop or notebook computers have an external video port, but they require special commands to

output the video to that connector. Also, laptop screens shut off once that port is activated. (See the computer

user guide for details, or contact Extron for a list of laptop keyboard commands.)

DMONITOR Output — If desired, connect a local monitor or other device to this 15-pin HD female connector.

RGB 192 Analog Computer-Video Interface

EH-SHIFT (Horizontal Shift) — While viewing the displayed image, rotate this control to move the image to the right or

left on the screen.

NOTE: DDSP disables the interface’s Horizontal Shift control.

To use the display’s centering controls instead of the interface’s controls, set the DDSP DIP switch to On.

FDIP switches — This bank of DIP switches is used to configure the interface. The switches control:

• Level •DDSP

• SOG (sync on green) •Monitor or no monitor (ID bit termination)

• Serration pulses •

Mono or stereo audio

NOTE: The default for all DIP switches is Off (down).

Level (and peaking) — The Level control alters the video output voltage to affect the brightness of the displayed

image. Turn the switch on and off while viewing the displayed image to set the level that provides the best picture

quality. If the interface receives a typical (0.7 volts p-p) analog computer video input, the output is as follows:

• On — 0.8 volts p-p with peaking

• Off — 0.7 volts p-p

Sync on green —

• On — The interface outputs a composite sync signal on top of the green video signal (SOG) via the G output

connector (RGsB).

• Off — The interface outputs separate horizontal and vertical sync (on the H and V connectors) and

composite sync (on the S connector) for RGBHV or RGBS.

Serration pulses — Many LCD and DLP projectors and plasma displays do not display properly if serration pulses

are present in the sync signal. Flagging or bending at the top of the video image is a sign that the serration pulses

should be removed.

• On — The interface outputs serration pulses in the vertical sync interval.

• Off — The interface does not output serration pulses.

DDSP — This feature may be necessary for digital display devices such as LCD, DLP (digital light processor) and

plasma displays. Use this option if the image is not displayed properly after other options, such as serration pulse

and video termination changes, have been tried.

NOTE: DDSP disables the horizontal and vertical centering controls.

• On — The interface uses DDSP, which does not process the sync signal.

• Off — The interface performs sync processing operations.

No monitor (ID bit termination) — This switch controls the input assigned to the local monitor output and ID bit

termination.

• On — ID bits 4 and 11 are tied to ground.

• Off — ID bits 4 and 11 are unterminated.

Mono audio output

• On — Monaural audio is output on the left channel only. When mono is selected, the right and left inputs are

combined and placed on the left output connectors.

• Off — Normal stereo output.

• For RGsB (sync on green, SOG), connect the cables to three BNCs. Also

RGsB

select the SOG option on the front panel DIP switch (see item 6DIP switches

on the previous page).

IStereo AUDIO output connector — Connect an audio device, such as powered speakers,

to this 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connector for balanced or unbalanced stereo or mono

audio output. Stereo or mono output is determined by a DIP switch setting on the front panel

(see DIP switch 6 in item 6, DIP switches). When mono is selected, the right and left inputs

are combined and placed on the left output connectors. Balanced or unbalanced outputs are

available for mono and stereo.

The illustration on the right shows how to wire the captive screw audio connector. The

connector is included with the interface, but you must obtain the cable.

1. Insert the wires into the appropriate openings in the captive screw connector.

2. Tighten the screws on top to fasten the wires.

ATTENTION: Wiring the audio incorrectly can damage the audio output circuits. Connect the sleeves to ground (GND).

Connecting the sleeves to a negative (-) terminal will damage audio output circuits.

ATTENTION : Un mauvais branchement du connecteur audio peut endommager les circuits de sortie audio.

Raccordez les manchons à la masse (GND). Le raccordement des manchons à une borne négative (-)

endommagera les circuits de sortie audio.

Operation and Troubleshooting

Connect the power cords and turn on the displays (projectors or monitors), audio output devices (sound system), the

interface and the input device (computer). The image should appear on screen, and sound should be available. If not,

ensure that all devices are plugged in and receiving power. Check the cabling and switch settings, and make adjustments

as needed.

If the image does not appear or there is no sound

1. Ensure that all devices are plugged in.

2. Make sure that each device is receiving power. The interface front panel LED lights green if the interface is receiving

power and an active sync signal.

3. Check the cabling and the audio connector wiring and grounding, and make adjustments as needed.

4. For digital display devices (including LCD, DLP and plasma devices), try turning the DDSP DIP switch (switch 4) On

(up) or Off (down) on the front panel (see DDSP on page4).

5. To test the system setup and output, substitute a video test generator for the computer input. Unplug the input and

output devices and the interface power cords, replace the video source with a VTG, then reconnect power cords to

restore AC power.

6. Call the Extron S3Sales & Technical Support Hotline if needed.

If the image is not displayed correctly

•If the output image looks too green, the sync on green (SOG) DIP switch (switch 2) may be set to On (up), and the

display device may not be conﬁgured to handle SOG signals. Set the switch to Off (down).

•If the picture bends or ﬂags at the top of the screen, set the serration pulse DIP switch (switch 3) to Off (down).

•For a display device that experiences intermittent glitches, try turning DDSP On (up) or Off (down) using DIP

switch 1 on the front panel.

•If the picture hangs off the edge of the screen, adjust the H-SHIFT (Horizontal Shift) (see page 4).

•If the edges of the image seem to exceed their boundaries or if thin lines and sharp edges look thick and fuzzy, try

changing the Level DIP switch (switch 1) to On (up). If the image is too bright, turn the Level switch to Off (down).

•If the image still does not display correctly, call the Extron S3Sales & Technical Support Hotline.

If the interface does not respond to controls

If the picture does not move on screen when the horizontal shift control is rotated, DDSP is in use. Set the DDSP DIP

switch (switch 4) on the front panel to Off (down).
