General
The AV-GM08S3-S1 Dual-View Video Processor is an advanced video processor for
multimedia presentations. It is an ideal solution for applications where two video signals must
be displayed on a single display. It supports up to four video inputs, of which two can be
outputted simultaneously in Picture-In-Picture (PIP) or Picture-Aside-Picture (PAP) modes. The
AV-GM08S3-S1 allows you to manipulate output images, wherever position and whatever sizes
you want for viewing two computers or two video signals or a combination.
The embedded scaler converts signals from input sources to match the native resolution of
monitors, flat panel displays, projectors as well as user-selectable output settings up to WUXGA
(1920x1200). Dual outputs are provided in both analog (VGA) and digital (HDMI/DVI) format, one
is connected to remote display and the other is connected to on-site display for real time
monitoring.

Inputs and Outputs
The AV-GM08S3-S1 has four inputs and accepts both graphics and video signals, which come
from computers and NTSC/PAL video sources respectively. There is a concept of main channel
and sub channel for this device. You can pick up two of the four inputs, one is for main channel
and the other is for sub channel, and then display two of them simultaneously on the same
screen. Figure 2 shows the rear panel connectors of a AV-GM08S3-S1 and Table 1 illustrates how
you can connect video devices and display to the AV-GM08S3-S1.
