Installation

Installation overview

Except where noted, the installation procedures for the various 

interface models are the same.  See "Cabling" in this chapter for 

additional information.

1

  If desired, mount the interface to an equipment rack 

(RGB 164xi only) or to or through a desk or other suitable 

surface using Extron’s optional mounting kit.  See 

"Mounting the interface" in the next section.

2

  Turn off power to the computer and its monitor.  Turn off 

power to the projector or display device.  Disconnect the 

power cord from the interface.

3

  If a local computer monitor is being used, connect the 

monitor to the Buffered Local Monitor Output connector.

4

  For audio connections, see the "Cabling" section in this 

chapter.

5

  Connect the projector or other output display device(s) to 

the interface’s BNC output connectors, as described in the 

"Cabling" section in this chapter.

6

  Set the interface’s DIP switches.  See "Setting the DIP 

switches" at the end of this chapter.

7

  Power on the computer, monitor, projector/display device, 

and the interface.  The image should now display on 

screen.  If it does not, double check steps 2 through 7 and 

make adjustments as needed.  To adjust horizontal sync 

polarity and to set vertical sync pulse width, see "Setting 

internal jumpers" section at the end of this chapter.

Mounting the interface

The RGB 164xi can be mounted on a rack.  Both the RGB 160xi 

and the RGB 164xi can be mounted under or through a desk or 

other surface using optional mounting kits.

Rack mounting (RGB 164xi only)

If desired, mount the RGB 164xi on an optional Extron 

RSU 129 1U universal rack shelf kit (part #

60-190-01

) or 

RSB 129 1U basic rack shelf (part #

60-604-01

) and in an 

equipment rack (figure 2-5) as follows:

Figure 2-5 — Rack mounting the RGB 164xi

1

Remove the feet from the bottom of the case if installed.

2

Mount the converter on the rack shelf, using two 

4-40 x 3/16" screws in opposite (diagonal) corners.

3

Install a blank panel (not included with the basic rack 

shelf) or another 1U half-rack unit on the unused side of 

the rack.

Use 2 mounting holes on 
opposite corners. 

(2) 4-40 x 3/16" 
Screws 

NOTE:

 Using screws longer 

than 3/16” will damage the 
unit and void the warranty.
