Analog HDTV display device is required, please use a high quality HD15-pin to
Component Video (3x RCA) adaptor cable.
The DVI-3410a provides digital RGB output signals via a DVI connector. It is
recommended that you use DVIGear’s Super High Resolution (SHR™) Series
cables for all output connections.
Note:
Proper signal levels are very important to the operation of this product. If this unit fails
to operate correctly, the most likely cause of the problem are incorrect low signal levels, use of
a low quality cable, or the use of a wrong input cable type.
4.3 Connecting Power to the Unit
This unit is shipped with an External AC Power Adapter that converts
100~240VAC@50-60 Hz to 5VDC. Connect the DC Output Cord from the Power
Adapter to the back of the unit and then plug the Power Adapter into an AC
power receptacle. When AC power is applied in this fashion, the Power LED
indicator will illuminate.
4.4 Getting the Best Results
There are many factors affecting the quality of results when scaling video
signals. Some basic precautions will ensure the best possible performance from
this product.
Output Display Device
– The quality of the output signal will depend largely
upon the type and quality of display device used. For instance, some video
projectors just look better than others.
Using Native Resolution
– It is always best to set the output resolution of the
scaler to the native resolution and refresh rate of the display device. This allows
the unit’s scaling engine to do most of the work, which usually results in a
superior picture.
Distance between the Video Scaler and the Display Device
– This plays a
major role in the
fi
nal result. Long distances are possible, but special measures
should be taken in order to avoid cable losses. These include using high quality
(coax-type) VGA cables and premium DVI cables such as DVIGear’s Super High
Resolution™ cables. Line ampli
fi
ers or repeaters may also be necessary
Output Connection Cables
– Low quality cables are susceptible to interference.
They degrade signal quality due to poor impedance matching and cause
elevated noise levels. Therefore, cables should be of the best quality. Coax-type
computer cables are recommended because of their superior internal shielding
characteristics.
Interference from Nearby Electrical Devices
– These can have an adverse
effect on signal quality. For example, an older computer monitor often emits
very high electromagnetic
fi
elds that can interfere with the performance of video
equipment in its proximity.
