Extron electronics RGB 160xi User manual

Setup Guide — RGB 160xi and RGB 164xi
C These instructions provide a quick setup guide for experienced installers. Installation
and service must be performed by authorized personnel only.
Step 1 — Disconnect power
Turn off all equipment and disconnect their power sources.
Step 2 — Configure sync settings
W Changes to internal jumpers must be
performed by authorized service personnel
only. Take steps to prevent electrostatic
discharge.
a. Open the interface and locate jumper blocks J20
and J40 (see the figure at right).
b. Set the sync polarity (jumper J20):
To force H and V output syncs to negative,
connect pins 1 and 2.
For output sync to follow input sync, connect
pins 2 and 3 (default setting).
c. Set vertical sync pulse width (jumper J40).
For a narrow V output sync pulse, connect pins
1 and 2.
For a wide V output sync pulse (default setting),
connect pins 2 and 3.
d. Replace the cover.
Step 3 — Mount the interface
The interface can be mounted on a desk, in a rack (RGB 164xi only), under a desk, or through a
desk. See the RGB 160xi and RGB 164xi User’s Guide for details.

N This figure shows the RGB 160xi front panel. The features of the RGB 164xi front panel are
similar.
Step 4 — Connect video input
Connect an RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, or RsGsBs video input to the 15-pin HD input connector on
the front panel (c).
Step 5 — Connect audio input
Connect an unbalanced stereo audio source to the 3.5 mm mini
Tip-Ring-Sleeve (TRS) stereo audio connector (b) for unbalanced
audio input. Wire the plug as shown in the figure at right.
Step 6 — Connect local monitor
If required, connect a local monitor to this 15-pin HD connector (e).
The Extron® RGB 160xi and RGB 164xi interfaces accept
RGBHV video and unbalanced stereo audio input and
provide one buffered local monitor output, one balanced
or unbalanced stereo audio output, and one (RGB 160xi)
or two (RGB 164xi) remote video outputs.

N This figure shows the RGB 164xi rear panel. The features of the RGB 160xi rear panel are
similar except there is no Output 2 (l).
Step 7 — Connect video output(s)
Connect the RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB video displays to Output 1 (k) and,
if required, Output 2 (l — RGB 164xi only), as shown in the figure at
right.
Step 8 — Connect audio output
Connect an audio device to the five-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector
(m). Follow the wiring diagram below for unbalanced or balanced stereo
output.

CAUTION For unbalanced audio, connect the sleeve(s) to the center contact ground.
DO NOT connect the sleeve(s) to the negative (-) contacts.
Step 9 — Connect power
Connect a standard IEC AC power connector (100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz) to this socket (i).
Power on input and output devices.
Step 10 — Set rear panel DIP switches
The first three rear panel DIP switches (j) control:
Sync on Green (SOG) — Set to on (up) for RGsB output; set to off for RGBHV or
RGBS output.
Digital Display Sync Processing (DDSP™) — Set to off (down) for sync processing; set to on
(up) for no sync processing (may be needed for some LCD and DLP plasma displays) .
Serration Pulses — Set to on (up) to keep serration pulses; set to off to remove them. If there is
flagging or bending at the top of the video image, set this switch to off.
N Turning on the DDSP switch disables the horizontal shift.
Step 11 — Set rear panel Gain/Peak switch
This rear panel switch (i) can be set to Unity (no gain and no peaking), gain with 50%
peaking, gain with 100% peaking. For cable runs of 125 feet or less, use the Unity setting.
Step 12 — Set front panel DIP switches
These front panel ID bit termination DIP switches (d) must both be set to on (up) if using a
laptop and no local monitor. Both switches must be set to off if using a local monitor.
Step 13 — Adjust horizontal shift
This front panel knob (f) adjusts the horizontal shift of the remote output display device(s).
