  • Page 23: Output Menu

    Output Resolution: This control lets you select the appropriate resolution for your display device. The available resolutions are listed on page 27. Because the IN1408 only scales up, users must choose an output resolution that is greater than or equal to the input size. For instance, you may not select 640 x 480 output with PAL input signals since PAL has more than 480 lines of video.
  • Page 24 This setting is useful to manually reduce the height of the output signal when an anamorphic input signal is connected. The IN1408 only scales up; therefore, the output size controls will stop at a certain point where the input and output resolution are equal.

  • Page 25: Advanced Menu

    The factory default input labels read "Input x", with x being the number of the current input. The IN1408 can also be programmed with custom input labels such as "VCR" , "Camera 5", or "DVD #2" or any other desired text to correspond with the name of the actual source connected to each input.
  • Page 26 User Memory: The User Memories (from 5 to 128) store all video, audio and input parameters. If a different input signal is applied to the IN1408, the User Memory can be recalled to return the video, audio and input settings for that particular signal. Select from the following options: •...

  • Page 27: Choosing The Optimal Resolution And Refresh Rate

    Choosing the Optimal Output Resolution and Refresh Rate Of all the settings on the IN1408, perhaps the most critical adjustment is the output resolution and output refresh rate. Every display device has an optimal or native resolution and an optimal refresh rate.

    A/V technicians should adjust the Advanced Input Settings The IN1408 adjusts automatically for different input and output modes. However, in cases where the input signal has slightly different timing or is a non-standard mode, some settings may be adjusted manually.
  • Page 32 Vertrieb von CAMBOARD Electronics o Redetected Now: The IN1408 automatically reconfigures when each new input mode is detected and each new output mode is selected. In the event that the scaler does not detect a change in the input mode, or should the input / output settings become invalid, the Redetect Now option allows users to initiate a new detection sequence and reload the input / output settings.

  • Page 34 In Figure 2, the input blanking is set incorrectly (as indicated by the dashed lines). If the H-Blanking is set less than the actual H-Blanking, the IN1408 will look for the active area before it really occurs. This results in a blank border on the left side of the active area, and cropping on the right side of the active area.
  • Page 35 In Figure 3, the active area is adjusted incorrectly, as shown by the dashed lines. If the active pixels are set less than the actual active pixels, the IN1408 will only look for the active area inside this smaller region. This results in an active area containing fewer pixels than are really present. This gives the apparent effect that the picture is stretched horizontally.
