Video Output Connections – Program Outputs
Two independently buffered Program outputs (one five wire BNC connection and one HD-15) are provided for each
output screen. Either of these outputs may be used to connect to the display device used for the presentation. The
second output is designed to support a local display in the event that the operator is unable to conveniently view the
presentation.
Both outputs provide RGB video signals. Connect the outputs labeled R,G, and B on the rear panel of the ScreenPro
unit to the correspondingly labeled connectors on the output device.
The operator can select the type of output sync to match application requirements. Separate C (Composite) or
separate H/V (Horizontal/Vertical) sync modes are supported. Connect the C or H sync signals from ScreenPro to the
correspondingly labeled connectors on the output device. If separate H/V sync mode is being used, be sure to
connect the V signal from the ScreenPro to the correspondingly labeled connector on the output device.
Preview Output
One Preview output (on an HD-15 connector) is provided for each output screen. The Preview outputs are provided
to permit the operator to view the next source video to be displayed prior to initiating a transition. The Preview outputs
provide RGB video signals. Connect the outputs on the rear panel of the ScreenPro unit to the correspondingly
labeled connectors on the output device.
The operator can select the type of output sync to match application requirements. Separate C (Composite) or
separate H/V (Horizontal/Vertical) sync modes are supported. Connect the C or H sync signals from ScreenPro to the
correspondingly labeled connectors on the output device. If separate H/V sync mode is being used, be sure to
connect the V signal from the ScreenPro to the correspondingly labeled connector on the output device.
ScreenPro and Controller Connections
For single screen applications, connect the Remote Port (DB-25 connector on the rear of the Controller) to the
ScreenPRO’s REMOTE Connector located on the rear panel using the 25 ft. 25-pin straight-thru serial provided with
the controller.
For multi-screen applications, connect the Remote Port (DB-25 connector on the rear of the Controller) to the
Communication Breakout Box (CBB-6X supplied with the Controller) using the 25 ft. 25-pin straight-thru serial cable
provided with the controller. Connect each ScreenPRO’s REMOTE port to the Breakout Box using a DB-25 male to
DB-25 male 25-pin straight-thru serial interface cable. Any ScreenPRO can be connected to any available port on
the Breakout Box.
Additional interface cables are available from Folsom Research. Order FRI (P/N 14-9760031-00).
