INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the HD Mate Scaler.
The HD Mate Scaler switches two Component sources and one DVI source, all with digital
TOSlink and analog audio inputs.
The Gefen HD Mate Scaler allows you to upscale and switch your standard denition or
high denition component sources to resolutions up to 1080p. Anything from set-top boxes,
DVD players to the next generation of gaming consoles including the Xbox 360 and PS3
can be plugged into the HD Mate Scaler.
Note: The switching is done by using the RMT-SR-IR remote control. Any HDTV with
HDMI inputs can be connected to the DVI output of the HD Mate by using a DVI to HDMI
adapter, if the cable being used is HDMI.

When connecting to a VGA PC source use a 15-pin D-sub cable to connect the output
of a PC to the DVI-I input connector of the HD Mate via a VGA to DVI.
When connecting to a component source (either SD or HD resolution) use a 3RCA to
3RCA cable to connect the YPbPr or YCbCr output of a DVD or Set Top Box to the
y-Cb/Pb-Cr/Pr input connector of the HD Mate.
When connecting to an HDMI source, use an HDMI to DVI cable to connect the HDMI
output of a STB or DVD to the DVI input connector of the HD Mate.
When connecting to a DVI source, use a DVI cable to connect to the DVI output of a
DVI source, such as a DVD or PC, to the DVI input of the HD Mate.
The HD Mate can automatically detect the input resolution of all three inputs.
The HD Mate accepts two component and one DVI inputs with audio inputs on each.
