Extron electronic GSS 100 Stereo System User Manual


 
User-selected images, including the test patterns, can be uploaded to the GSS via its
Ethernet port using HTML pages built into the GSS. The pass-through RGB input and the
output are via female BNC connectors.
The GSS provides 16 MB of RAM for storage, providing room for up to 17 uploaded bitmap
images. The number of images that the GSS can accommodate depends on the resolution
of the images. Table 2 shows the number of BMP images that the GSS can accommodate,
based on several common resolutions.

NOTE: Because of the variable compression schemes for JPG images, there is no reliable
method to calculate the number of JPG images that the GSS can hold.
Progressive JPG images are not supported.
Bitmap (BMP) images must be formatted as 24-bit RGB.
