FEATURES
Multi-Configurable Inputs
The DVS 304 features four inputs, including a multi-configurable
input for composite video, S-video, and component video. The
fourth input is fully configurable and can accept any analog
video format from composite video, to HDTV component video
and RGBHV. Dedicated composite video and S-video inputs
provide connectivity for today’s most common video devices.
RGB and Video Scaling
RGB computer-video, high definition video, and standard
definition video sources can all be scaled to the desired output
resolution. A total of 59 output scan rates are available including
computer-video rates up to UXGA (1600 x 1200), 480p, 576p,
and HDTV rates at 720p, 1080i, and 1080p.
RGB Upscaling and Downscaling
The DVS 304 features an advanced scaling engine with high
quality upscaling and downscaling of high resolution computer-
video signals.
Automatic Input Format Detection
Input four of the DVS 304 can be set to detect the incoming
signal format, automatically reconfiguring itself to provide the
appropriate decoding and signal processing. This feature can
reduce the number of required outputs for a matrix switcher,
lowering system cost while improving manageability.
Auto-Switching
The DVS 304 can automatically switch between input sources.
Additional inputs to the scaler can be achieved when the Auto-
Switching mode is implemented on the DVS 304, placed on the
back end of a larger presentation switcher, such as the MPS 112.
Audio Switching and Output Volume Control
The DVS 304 A and DVS 304 AD feature audio switching for
four stereo balanced or unbalanced input sources. In addition to
master volume control and muting, gain or attenuation can be
adjusted for each input to eliminate noticeable differences when
switching between sources.
IP Link
®
Ethernet Monitoring and Control
IP Link is a high performance intelligent network solution
developed by Extron. IP Link also enables the DVS 304 to directly
communicate with IP Link enabled matrix switchers for faster,
streamlined system operation.
Picture Controls
Images can be adjusted and fine-tuned for brightness, contrast,
color, tint, detail, and horizontal and vertical positioning, sizing,
and zoom. Three memory presets are available for each input to
store all image settings.
Aspect Ratio Conversion
Any video input can be adjusted horizontally and vertically to
meet a specific aspect ratio requirement. Alternatively, the input
aspect ratio may be specified (as 4:3 or 16:9) and fixed. For
example, the user can save and recall specific settings to match
various video aspect ratios from DVDs.
Dual Outputs
Scaled outputs are available as RGB or HDTV component video,
through 15-pin HD and BNC connectors simultaneously.
Picture-in-Picture
A special picture-in-picture (PIP) mode, activated through the
RS-232 or IP Link port, or IR remote control, allows a video
source to be displayed within an RGB image, or vice versa. The
PIP mode features adjustable window sizing and positioning.
Auto-Image
™
Setup
For expedited presentation set-up, the DVS 304 automatically
optimizes the image by analyzing and then adjusting to the
incoming source, eliminating complex and time-consuming set-
up procedures.
On-Screen Display (OSD)
The DVS 304 features an on-screen display which displays status
information pertaining to the currently selected input, and
facilitates easy adjustment of picture settings.
RS-232 Control
Through RS-232, the DVS 304 can be controlled and configured,
or integrated into third-party control systems using Extron
Simple Instruction Set (SIS
™
) commands.
Optional SDI Input
Available as a factory or add-on option is SDI (Serial Digital
Interface) input. The SDI input enables CCIR 601 digital video
sources to be integrated into A/V systems via the DVS 304.
Rack-Mountable
The DVS 304 is housed in a 1U, half rack width metal enclosure.
The DVS 304 A is housed in a 1U, full rack width metal
enclosure.
Optional IR Remote Control
The optional Extron IR 902 remote control allows for input
source switching, image freeze control, and direct access to
picture adjustments.
