Sympodium IM–150 Installation Guide 7
Connection Information
You connect input and output devices to the connection panel on the X-Port 30 unit of the
Sympodium IM-150 integration module. For example, you could connect a computer and a
projector.
NOTE: The IM-150 accepts and transmits video in RGB format, using HD DB15 connectors.
To connect to an S-video or composite input device, you'll need to integrate a video scaler. As
well, to connect an S-video or composite output device, you’ll need to incorporate a scan
converter into your integration.
Keep the input ports consistent when you’re connecting input devices. For example, use the
input ports labeled:
•
1 for a permanently installed computer
•
2 for a laptop computer
•
3 for a video device, such as a document camera with an RGB output
For output devices, the X-Port 30 unit transmits the same video and audio signals to every
connected device using 1x3 electronic switches. See page 47 for a diagram of the overall
interconnection of the console and the X-Port 30 unit.
This section of the installation guide describes the connections between the interactive screen
and the X-Port 30 unit and how to extend the cables, the video input signals needed, and what
types of cable you should use to integrate the IM-150 with other devices.
Console Connections
The Sympodium IM-150 console has three connection ports: two are for the X-Port 30 unit
connection panel and the other is for the wall power outlet. The necessary cables are
supplied, including a video cable and an RS-232 DB9M/F serial cable for connecting the
console to the X-Port 30 unit.
RGB Video
The Sympodium IM-150 module comes with a customized 6' (1.8 m) cable. During the
installation process, you’ll connect the DVI-I end of the DVI/VGA cable into the female
DVI/VGA port on the console. Then, you’ll insert the male HD DB15 connector into the X-Port
30 unit. If you need to extend this video cable, use a 75-ohm coaxial extension RGB cable.
The total length shouldn’t exceed 50'
(15 m) .
NOTE: While the screen can support DVI video signals, the X-Port 30 unit supports only
analog signals.
