1. Introduction
The HDMI to CV/SV Converter is designed to convert digital signal from HDMI
(or DVI + Coaxial) source to analog signal of NTSC or PAL system, with L/R
stereo audio. Besides S-Video and Composite Video outputs, it also provides
one bypass HDMI output to deliver original signal, and a Coaxial output to
send S/PDIF digital audio to audio amplifier. The product provides a
convenient application that user can watch high definition movie
meanwhile record it (in standard resolutions 480i or 576i) to DVR or VCR
machine.
2. Main Features
 HDMI 1.2, HDCP1.1 and DVI1.0 compliant
 Converts video signal from HDMI source to NTSC or PAL signal selectable
 Converts digital audio from HDMI or Coaxial source to analog stereo audio
 Accepts HDTV input of wide resolutions, from 480p to 1080p@60Hz (except
1080p@24Hz) and PC from VGA@60Hz to UXGA@60Hz.
Note: Sources’ signal also need to disable 1080p@24Hz resolution in order to
avoid image corruption.
When HDMI input source end is not displaying full screen (i.e. letter
box/pillbox image) then the output display end may come out with
wrong size or position images. Hence, input source must set on full
screen first before powering on the converter and set the input source
to YCbCr by entering into DVD/PS3/BD’s OSD menu and set the HDMI
color space on YCbCr will resolve the problem.
 Video and audio conversion / bypass scenarios:

* In the scenario of INPUT/OUTPUT A, the audio signal from Coaxial input will not
be used.
** DVI input or output can be applied by using HDMI to DVI adapter or cable of
similar function.
*** Analog L/R audio outputs are not available when the audio input is Coaxial,
please connect the analog audio from source to your speakers directly.
● When the signal from HDMI or DVI source is protected by HDCP (High-
bandwidth Digital Content Protection), the HDMI or DVI display needs to
support HDCP to be able to show picture.
