7. DVI Output: Digital output interface for
compatable displays. All processed analog
and digital inputs are output to this connector
as well as computer scan rates when the
pass-throught input is selected. Maximum
cable length is 50ft with a high quality DVI
cable. For longer lengths a distribution system
or fiber optic system must be used.
8. BNC connectors for main output with RGBHV
or YPrPb signals to display devices. Cable
runs up to 100ft are okay if good quality cables
are used. For YPrPb outputs use:
Red = Pr
Green = Y
Blue = Pb
RGBHV is recommended.
Note: If Computer signals are to be used, separate
H & V sync cables must be connected to the display.
9. IR receiver connection allows for use with
external IR receivers so unit can be installed
behind walls. (3.5mm, 3 pin, Tip = +5 - +12V
Pulse, Sleave = Gnd)
10.12V trigger to activate automatic screen
relays. Voltage is constant when unit power is
on. (12V @ 100mA Max. 3.5mm 2 pin
connector, Tip = +12V, Sleave = Gnd)
11.RS232 D9F connection for use with RS232
control systems. This connection also allows
for firmware upgrades to the DVP1500.
12. AC Power connection.
13. Digital audio connections from internal
DVD drive.
Note: The DVI or analog RGBHV outputs cannot be
active at the same time. Select the output type in the
Setup menu prior to use of the processor.
Connecting HDTV Satellite Receivers
Since HDTV ready satellite receivers offer different
signal types, they require special attention for
connection to the processor. Every receiver is
different so be sure to consult the receivers manual
for details. For this manual, we will assume the
receiver being used operates as follows:
1. Non HDTV material is output from the receiver
via an S-video connection
2. HDTV material is output via YPrPb outputs
3. If available, HDTV material is also output via a
DVI connector.
The following diagram offers one way to connect
the system.
Note: The DVP1500 pass-through input will “pass ”
the input signal to the output stage in the same
format as the input signal, i.e. analog HDTV in –
analog HDTV out, DVI HDTV in – DVI HDTV out.
The HDTV signal cannot be converted from analog to
digital or digital to analog. Also, HDTV signals with
HDCP encription will not pass through the DVP1500.
Simply switch to the analog YPrPb output of the
satellite receiver and switch the DVP1500 output to
analog RGBHV to view the signal.
HDTV Cross-Conversion
The DVP1500 can cross-convert 480p,1080i and
720p HDTV signals to the selected output of the
processor. Any HDTV signal connected to the YPrPb
BNC or DVI inputs will be cross-converted. Any
HDTV or PC signal connected to the D15 input will be
passed-through without processing. PC signals via
the DVI input will be sent to the pass-through.
With this hookup viewing the different sources is as follows:
