Three HDMI and two universal analog video inputs — The two universal 15-pin
HD inputs automatically detect incoming RGB, HD component video, YUVi, S-video, or
composite video signals. The DVS 605 allows for seamless switching between HDMI
and analog video sources.
Auto input format detection — For the universal analog video inputs, the DVS 605
detects the incoming signal format, automatically reconfiguring the scaler to provide the
appropriate decoding and signal processing.
Auto-switching between inputs — The DVS 605 can automatically switch between
input sources. The unit can be set up to automatically switch to an active input, by
giving priority to the highest active input (5 to 1), or to the lowest active input (1 to 5).
This allows for simple, automated control of the DVS 605 when a control system is not
in use.
The Auto Switch feature detects "active" video inputs by the presence of valid horizontal
and vertical sync inputs, and not by the presence of an input cable, or +5 VDC from
a source that is currently not outputting active video. Using simultaneous video input
detection on all inputs, the DVS 605 switches to the active input depending on the
configured order of precedence (high to low vs. low to high).
With auto-switching, the DVS 605 can accommodate additional inputs when connected
to the outputs of a larger presentation switcher, or can be used for unmanaged
switching, or as an upstream matrix switcher.
NOTE: When Auto Switch mode is active, Picture-in-Picture (PIP) mode cannot be
enabled. Similarly, if PIP mode is currently active, Auto Switch mode cannot be
enabled.
True seamless switching — Seamless cut and dissolve transition effects are available
for inputs 1 through 4. Input 5 features glitch-free switching with a fade through to
black.
NOTE: True seamless switching is not available with PIP mode enabled (see
Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode
3G/HD-SDI output — Active only if the current resolution is set to 720p, 1080i, 1080p,
or 2K at 23.98, at 24, or at 25 Hz. All video outputs (HDMI, VGA, SDI) share a common
output resolution and display the same content.
Simultaneous scaled outputs for HDMI, HD-SDI, and analog RGB or HD
component video — HDMI and high resolution analog RGB or component video
outputs are available for driving two displays.
Selectable output rates — Available output rates include computer video (640x480)
up to 1920x1200, HDTV rates up to 1080p@60 Hz, and 2048x1080 (2K@60 Hz).
Picture-in-picture (PIP) — For inputs 1 through 4, the DVS 605 provides unrestricted
two-window display of standard definition and high resolution digital and analog video
sources. Multiple PIP presets are available, including side-by-side windows. The main
and PIP windows can be dynamically sized, positioned, and magnified. In audio models,
audio switching can be set to follow either the main or PIP window.
NOTE: True seamless switching is not available with PIP mode enabled (see
Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode
