Product Overview
The IN3262D / IN3262DS are video distribution amplifiers designed to work specifically with high-
resolution computer graphic signals. Since the units have two buffered outputs, they permit the signal from
one computer graphics card to be split out to two display devices. The IN3262D / IN3262DS are
frequently used to amplify and split the computer’s video signal so it may be viewed on the local monitor
and a second data display device such as an LCD projector/presenter, data projector or presentation
monitor. These units do not alter the video or sync signals, but merely amplify the signals to a level needed
to extend the external display(s) as far as 100 feet away. The IN3262D / IN3262DS distribution amplifiers
are fully automatic, offering easy operation and the following features:
♦Two Buffered Outputs for Maximum Performance and Flexibility - Input and output cables may be
extended as needed using High Resolution Coaxial Cables (IN8000 Series)
♦Units Maintain Sync Polarities - Ideal for use with LCD, DMA, ILA and Plasma Displays
♦400 MHz bandwidth for superb performance with video signals at any resolution and refresh rate
♦6’ Detachable High Resolution VGA Input Cable (IN8006)
The IN3262D / IN3262DS feature 15-pin HD VGA standard input/output connectors allowing for direct
interfacing with VGA computer graphics cards and data displays. Both units’ output signals feature the
same sync format and polarity as the input signal, ensuring excellent operation with a wide range of scan
rate compatible CRT, LCD, DMD, ILA, D-ILA and HDLV plasma data and display devices. In addition,
both units can be directly connect to MAC, SUN, SGI and other high resolution work stations and displays
(see list on page 5 for appropriate input and output adapter and extension cables).
Compatibility
INPUT
The IN3262D / IN3262DS distribution amplifiers operate with specific video signals as detailed below:
IN3262D - operates with analog video input from a wide variety of IBM and compatible computer video
signal formats including VGA, SVGA and XGA. However, other types of local monitors can be connected
using the appropriate adapter/extension output as indicated in the chart on page 2. All sense pins are
passed from the input connector to Output #1 to ensure proper sensing of a local monitor.
IN3262DS - shares the same features as the IN3262D, but also includes high quality stereo amplification
circuits. This allows the unit to split the stereo audio signal from the computer’s sound card so that it can
drive two audio inputs simultaneously.
OUTPUT
The IN3262D / IN3262DS offer two buffered video output signals in the same format and use the same
connector as the original input signal. This is ideal for use with devices such as LCD projectors and
proprietary data monitors which often must see a certain type of connector and sync format in order to
recognize and lock up to various frequencies. Since both outputs of the IN3262D / IN3262DS are
buffered, the data display(s) may be located 100’ or more away from the source computer by using high-
resolution coaxial extension cables. The maximum distance that signals may be sent depends on the
horizontal scan rate of the signal and the bandwidth capability of the cables.

IN3262D / IN3262DS OPERATION MANUAL - REV 1.1 12/03/99 ©1999 - INLINE, INC.
The IN3262DS’ audio output is compatible with line level stereo audio signals.
Installation
This section offers step-by-step instructions for installing the IN3262D / IN3262DS. A detailed application
drawing showing all equipment connections is included on the next page.
1. Turn the computer and computer monitor off. Disconnect the computer monitor (if present) from the
video output port on the computer.
2. Connect the IN3262D / IN3262DS video input cable to the computer’s video
output port. On PC compatible computers with VGA, SVGA or XGA output,
the video output port is a 15-Pin HD connector, which looks like this:
3. Connect the local computer monitor (if present) to Output #1 on the IN3262D / IN3262DS distribution
amplifier. VGA local monitors can be connected directly to the output. If no local monitor is
connected to Output #1, a termination plug is required. Using an IN9031 15-pin HD VGA terminator
plug will emulate a color VGA monitor.
4. Connect a second compatible data display to Output #2 using an IN8000 Series VGA Extension Cable,
available in lengths from 3’ to 100’.
5. For the IN3262DS, connect the audio stereo input cable (IN9106) to the computer’s audio output port.
The unit’s audio outputs might be connected to a presentation monitor with built-in speakers, powered
column speakers, a sound system, a VCR or audio recorder, or a video conferencing system.
6. Connect the round connector on the IN9204 9VDC, 500mA power supply to the POWER input jack
(located on the end panel of the distribution amp, on the same end as the monitor loop cable). Connect
the power adapter box side of the power supply to the A/C power source.
7. Complete the installation by turning the computer and computer monitor on.
VGA, SVGA, XGA, SUN, SGI and other workstation video cards operate in several
different modes encompassing a wide range of resolutions and horizontal scan rates
and vertical refresh rates. The IN3262D / IN3262DS are not scan converters and the
data projector or monitor must be compatible with the horizontal scan rate put out by
the computer video card. Please check the documentation for both the computer
video card and the data projection device in order to ensure compatibility.

Troubleshooting
The display device connected to the IN3262D / IN3262DS output has a bad/scrambled image.
Solution 1: The display device connected to the output of the distribution amplifier may not be compatible
with the computer output. Some LCD projectors and presentation monitors will not display
signals at resolutions higher than 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768 with horizontal scan rates above
48KHz. Make sure you know what resolution mode the computer video card is set to output.
While basic 640 x 480 VGA at 60 Hz refresh rate runs at 31.5 KHz, SVGA modes can be as
high as 48 - 80 KHz with the highest resolution settings such as 1800 x 1400 running at 80
KHz or higher depending on the refresh rate setting. Sun and SGI computers usually operate at
61KHz, 64KHz, or 71KHz at resolutions as high as 1280 x 1024.
Solution 2: The output cable may have a bad sync line. Try another cable.
The output image is missing a color.
Solution: The output cable may be bad. Check both ends of the cable to see if any of the pins are bent or
missing. Also inspect the cable to see if the coax may have been pinched or severed internally.
Try another cable.
The computer output is black and white when it should be color.
Solution: There needs to be a termination on output #1. Use a local monitor or the IN9031 termination
plug.
The output image of the IN3262D / IN3262DS is visible but has poor quality / low definition.
Solution: The output cable may be too long or of poor quality. INLINE offers several high-resolution
mini-coax cables for analog signals and a series of shielded twisted pair cables designed
specifically for digital video signal transmission. See page 2 for specific recommendations.
The unit doesn’t output any signal and the power light is not turning on.
Solution: The power adapter may have failed. The power adapter should feel warm to the touch after it
has been plugged in for a few minutes. If the adapter feels cool it may have failed. Try
another IN9204 9VDC; 500 mA power adapter.
(IN3262DS only) The unit doesn’t output any audio signal, or the audio signal is low,
intermittent, static, or only transmits through one channel.
Solution 1: Make sure the computer’s sound card is set for line level output.
Solution 2: Make sure the unit’s audio input cable is connected to the computer’s audio output/line out
port.
Solution 3: Make sure the unit’s audio output cable is connected to the line level input port of the desired
POWERED audio system.
Solution 4: Make sure all connectors are firmly and completely seated in their proper ports.
Solution 5: Replace any and all defective or damaged audio cables.
