DVI-3210a Input / Output Panels
4.1 Connecting the Input
The DVI-3210a can accept both VGA and HDTV inputs. When connecting a VGA
format input, use the provided HD15 (VGA) cable. When connecting HDTV signal
inputs, use the supplied Component Video (3x RCA) to VGA Adapter Cable. The DVI-
3210a will automatically detect the mode and resolution of the PC/HDTV input signal.
4.2 Connecting the Output
The DVI-3210a Video Scaler can output a wide variety of PC and HDTV resolutions
both in digital (DVI-D) and analog (DVI-A) formats. To use the device with a DVI-D
capable display, connect the supplied DVI cable from the unit’s DVI output to the
DVI input on the monitor, then select DVI-D mode in the Output Setup menu. This
is the standard configuration for the device. To use the analog output of the DVI-
3210a, select the DVI-A mode in the Output Setup menu. You must use a DVI-I
to VGA adapter cable (DVIGear p.n. DVI-8415b) and a high quality VGA cable to
connect the analog output to a VGA compatible display (sold separately).
