Your KD-VPHD2 Switcher can perform output Aspect Ratio processing, including options to
prevent monitor burn-in for Letterbox or Pillarbox images

i. H Zoom (Horizontal Zoom): This "H Zoom" feature is particularly useful for some
Plasma owners, who may want to stretch the image to fill the screen and avoid the nasty burn-
in. If the input signal is a Pillarbox, Horizontal Zoom extends (distorts) the image from left to
right to fill the screen. For example, when a 4:3 movie is up-converted to HDTV in a studio, it
may be simply released in the Pillarbox format, with black bars to the left and right of the image
in a 16:9 window.
ii. V Zoom (Vertical Zoom): This "V Zoom" feature is particularly useful for some Plasma
owners, who may want to stretch the image to fill the screen and avoid the nasty burn-in. If the
input signal is a Letterbox, Vertical Zoom extends (distorts) the image from top to bottom to fill
the screen. For example, it is very common for a widescreen DVD movie to be presented in
Letterbox, because the original movie may be captured in 2.35:1 Cinemascope or some other
Aspect Ratio that creates a small letterbox in a 16:9 window.
iii. HV Zoom: This mode simultaneously stretches the image uniformly in both the
Horizontal and Vertical directions, using the same ratios as in H Zoom and V Zoom. This Zoom
mode may be preferred over the H- or V-Zoom, both of which geometrically distort the image.
Because the image is "Zoomed," there will be a slight loss (cropping) of the image at the top
and bottom for Pillarbox sources, and at the left and right for Letterbox sources.

IR Remote Control

All the functions of the KD-VPHD2 can be remotely accessed using the IR remote control
supplied. The remote control unit may not operate if there are objects placed between it and
the display. When operating the remote control unit, it must be pointed directly at the KD-
VPHD2. The IR sensors are located at the bottom right segment of the front and rear panels of
the KD-VPHD2. Periodically replace batteries, as the operational distance of the Remote
Control is affected by a weakened power source.
The hand held IR Remote Control provides the user with a quick, easy to operate navigation
device that permits direct selection of inputs and adjustment of the most common parameters,
such as brightness, contrast, hue...etc., through the use of "Hot Buttons" , without having to
access the extensive menu of the KD-VPHD2. As illustrated in the preceding diagram of the IR
Remote Control, these convenient Keys are clearly marked and make the configuring your new
Video processor simple and efficient. Additionally included in your purchase package is a user
Quick Reference Guide designed to make the basic start up of the KD-VPHD2 a trouble free
and pleasant endeavor for both the experienced and casual user alike.
