Compatibility; Input - Extron electronics IN1404 User Manual

On-screen Menus — Provide easy control of video adjustments, including hue, color, contrast,
brightness, gamma, sharpness, image size, image position and edge blanking. Individual image
settings can be optimized and stored for each input. Each time an input is selected, all image settings
stored for that input are automatically recalled. The on-screen menus also make it easy to verify and
adjust advanced settings such as output signal resolution/refresh rate/sync format, RS-232 control
options and reset to factory default. System Info is a handy menu option that uses the on-screen
display to show comprehensive information about the input and output signals and scaler settings.
Image Size, Position and Edge Blanking Controls — Individual horizontal and vertical image
adjustments make it easy to precisely fit the active video image to the display area and provide for
multiple aspect ratios. The digital Freeze Frame feature can be activated using a front panel button or
via RS-232 serial commands.
Comprehensive Input Adjustment Controls — Include signal format, aspect ratio and horizontal
tracking. Once adjustments are made to optimize input signals, these settings are stored and
automatically recalled when the same input source is selected again.
Advanced Input Adjustment Controls — Provided to optimize the unit when it is used with
proprietary and non-standard input signals. These input signal adjustments include: Total Pixels,
Active Pixels, Active Lines, horizontal and vertical blanking, Phase and Scan Type. Once adjustments
are made to optimize non-standard input signals, these settings are stored and automatically recalled
when the same input signal is encountered again.
Blue Screen Feature — Provides a full screen blue image for setup and testing purposes. The blue
screen output signal (activated via the on-screen menu) is always available, even when the input
signal is missing or the input settings are incorrectly adjusted. Blue screen acts as a test signal and is
ideal for setting up the output resolution, refresh rate and position settings, and to verify connection to
the output display device.
128 User Memories — The IN1404 includes 128 user memories that store all video, audio and input
parameters. User memories allow the unit to be optimized for a large number of sources and gives the
capability to recall those settings quickly. The user memories make it easy to expand the number of
inputs by using a switcher or matrix switcher before the IN1404.
RS-232 Serial Control — Provided for all scaler functions, including input selections, image
adjustments and output settings. The IN1404's comprehensive RS-232 control capacity facilitates
complete system integration and effortless control when combined with a third party control system.
Data Display Friendly Output — The IN1404 provides a progressive scan RGBHV output at standard
VGA resolutions and refresh rates, ensuring optimal compatibility with a wide range of CRT, LCD,
DMD, ILA, D-ILA, and plasma display devices.
Dual Outputs — The IN1404 features a 5-BNC output and a 15-Pin HD (VGA) output. Since both are
active simultaneously, the IN1404 can directly drive two separate display devices.
Rack Mountable — The IN1404 can be mounted in a 1U rack space using the provided mounting
brackets (Extron part # 70-391-01).

Compatibility

Input

The IN1404 Video Scaler accepts composite and S-video signals in the NTSC, PAL, SECAM and
NTSC 4.43 video standards on all four inputs. Inputs 3 and 4 also accept interlaced and progressive
scan component video, interlaced and progressive scan RGBHV, RGBS or RGsB analog video signals
at horizontal scan rates from 15 kHz to 60 kHz. When inputs 3 and 4 are set for passive mode, they are
compatible with virtually any signal format at any resolution and refresh rate within the range of
15-60 kHz.
The IN1404 has stereo audio-follow-video capability. All four stereo audio inputs are compatible with
unbalanced line level signals from a VCR, DVD player, computer audio card, or any other audio
device that delivers a stereo line level signal.
