Extron electronics DVC 501 SD Setup Manual

DVC 501 SD • Setup Guide
The Extron DVC 501 SD receives SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G-SDI serial digital video signals and converts them to DVI-D and
analog RGB or component video. It is compliant with SMPTE 259M, 292M, 424M, and ITU digital video standards. The RGB
output can be set for RGBHV, RGBS, and RGsB. Bi-level or tri-level sync can be selected when the unit is set for component
video output. The DVC 501 SD features extraction of embedded AES3 audio, RS-232 and USB serial control, and a buffered
loop-through that delivers reshaped and restored multi-rate SDI signals.
NOTE: For full installation, configuration, and operation details, see the DVC 501 SD User Guide, available at
