INSTALLATION AND SETUP GUIDE
Getting Started
THE LEADER IN AUDIO ENGINEERING
Thank you for your purchase of the HDMI Digital Video Output Stage for the Krell
Showcase DVD. HDMI combines high definition video and multi-channel audio in
a single digital interface, and is fully backward compatible with the Digital Visual
Interface (DVI) standard. The HDMI Digital Video Output Stage utilizes an on
board video scaler that converts standard DVD video from the native 480i resolu-
tion to high-definition resolutions, 480p, 720p, or 1080i.
This document outlines the basic steps for unpacking the HDMI boards and acces-
sories that comprise the HDMI Digital Video Output Stage and describes the proce-
dure for installing them into the Showcase DVD. The owner’s reference for the
Showcase DVD, including a detailed description of features and the product warran-
ty, is available on the web at:
www.krellonline.com
Please contact your authorized dealer, distributor, or Krell if you have any ques-
tions not addressed in this installation guide.
