Typical applications of the machines are: computer graphics distribution in classes, point of sale and multimedia studios, displaying computer graphics before large audiences using the data input of a wide screen video projector.
  • Page 4 High-resolution graphics systems should use very high quality cables for image transmission. The cables should be shielded to eliminate externally induced interference but the shield might itself increase the capacitance of the cable, and therefore, cause deterioration in the image’s resolution and clarity.

    6.3 - “handling signal losses”. VP-210xl Preset In order to use the VP-210xl efficiently, the machine should be preset to the required application. There are four dip switches accessible from the bottom of the machine. Three are used for enabling the looping option, and one is used for pin 4 ID control.
  • Page 11: Handling Signal Losses

    Long and/or low quality cables tend to degrade the signal quality, resulting in image “smear” and fine-detail loss, as well as signal level attenuation. The VP-210xl allows the user to handle and correct those problems, using the built-in amplifiers. Using very high quality cables of 1-2 meter length will not require adjustment, even when the signals involved are UXGA signals (1600x1200 resolution).
