Caution Notes
Do not connect the VP250SE to a Monitor/
Projector not capable of the correct scan
rates. (31.5KHz)
High Voltages are present inside. Opening
the unit will void all warranties.
No user serviceable parts inside.
The Faroudja VP250SE Line Doubler/Video
Processor is a precision video instrument used to
convert NTSC interlaced signals into 480 visible,
progressively scanned lines (640X480 resolution).
Using Picture Plus™ technology, the VP250SE
removes typical video processing artifacts while
also increasing color purity and image detail,
closely matching 35mm film.
The VP250SE is designed as an ideal match for
DLP, LCD,CRT projectors, Plasma displays and
computer monitors that require high quality, pro-
gressively scanned signals.
Front panel features include Power, Input Select,
Brightness, Contrast, Color, Tint, and Detail. All of
the settings are automatically stored when the unit
is turned off. Also, up to 32 custom presets can be
set. All front panel features can be adjusted by
infrared and RS232 remote control.
Inputs include: Composite Video, S-Video
Component (Y,Cr,Cb/RGB) and Computer/HDTV.
The Video input may be connected by either a
BNC connection or a video RCA type connection.
These inputs are looped internally so that other
devices may use the signal.. The S-Video input
uses a standard 4-pin connector.
The VP250SE requires a standard D15 to RGB
breakout cable when using the component input.
If the looped inputs are used, these cables should
be kept short (under 6' in length) or a video distrib-
ution amplifier should be used. This allows the
VP250SE to keep the highest signal bandwidth
possible without having the high frequencies being
attenuated in a long cable.
Output from the VP250SE is provided by six BNC
connectors as well as one 15 pin ‘D’ connector.
The BNC outputs provided are Red, Green, Blue,
Horizontal Sync, Vertical Sync and Composite
Sync. Interface to monitors/projectors can be a 4
or 5 wire connection. The VP250SE is capable of
driving a monitor/projector using the BNC outputs
as well as a 15 pin ‘D’ connector, at the same time.
The monitor and projector must be compatible with
a 31.5KHz Horizontal scan rate.
