Safety Instructions
This icon denotes important information for the safe operation of the product and
for the user’s safety.
This symbol denotes further information on the topic.
Operational safety
Please follow the usage instructions of your computer.
Keep the device away from moisture, vibration, dust, heat and direct sunlight to avoid system
failure.
Never open the device casing. Doing so will void the warranty and could lead to permanent
damage to the device.
Never allow children to play unsupervised with electrical devices. Children cannot always
recognise possible hazards. Small parts may cause choking resulting in death or serious injury.
Keep packaging away from children as it is a suffocation risk.

SilverCrest USB 2.0 Video Grabber SVG 2.0 A2 English

After transport wait until the device has reached ambient temperature before use. In extreme
temperature or humidity fluctuation condensation can lead to moisture build up which can cause
a short circuit.
Always handle the cables by the connector and do not pull on the cables themselves. Do not
place any heavy objects on the cables or connectors and ensure that the cable shielding does not
become cracked. Never tie a knot in a cable and do not tie cables together. Ensure that all
cables are placed so that no one can trip over them and they do not cause an obstruction.
Children
Electrical devices do not belong in children's hands. Never allow children to use electrical devices
unsupervised. Children cannot always recognise possible hazards. Keep packaging away from
children as it is a suffocation risk.
Electromagnetic Compatibility
The Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC) must be adhered to when connecting the device.
Ensure that there is a minimum distance of 1m from high frequency and magnetic sources of
interference (e.g. TVs, speakers, mobile phones etc) in order to prevent malfunctions and loss of data.
Back up
After each update please ensure that you back up your data to external storage media. Damage
claims for lost data or for consequential losses as a result of lost data are excluded.

Getting Started
Installing the software
The required software (drivers and applications) must first be installed before you
plug in the device.
When installing programs or drivers important files can be overwritten and altered.
You should back up the contents of
y
our hard drive before the installation of the
programs, so that you can still access your original files if there is a problem with
the installation.
Should your operating system be set in a way that the installation of software an
d
drivers will only be accepted when they are signed (approved by Microsoft), an
appropriate dialogue box will appear. This does not mean that the driver is
defective, just that it is indicating that it does not have this Microsoft signature. You
can ignore this advice. Click on 'Continue' to install the drivers.
Insert the enclosed CD ROM into the drive and the installation menu opens automatically.
Install the software (Power Director) and the drivers (Device Driver) according to the directions on
the screen.
Restart your PC after installation to finalise the procedure.
If the installation assistant does not automatically start when the CD ROM is
inserted, then the auto run function of your CD drive is deactivated. Then
proceed as follows:
Click on the 'Start' button to open the Start Menu.
Click on the option 'Run...'
Insert the drive letter of your CD ROM drive, followed by a colon and the program name
'Autorun' (e.g. D:autorun)
Click on the 'OK' button to confirm the action.
A description of the software can be found on the CD ROM.

10
Attach the source of video output (e.g. camcorder) to the Video Grabber. You now have the
choice of the following types of connection:
Video / S-Video Signal
To transfer images connect either the S-Video cable (3) (same connectors at both ends of the
cable) or the yellow connector of the AV cable (4) (yellow, red and white connectors at both
ends of the cable) with the respective sockets of the connection adapter and your desired
source.
Do not plug both the S-Video cable and the yellow plug of the RCA cable in at the same time.
Audio Signal
To transfer sound connect the red and white connectors of the AV cable (4) (yellow, red and
white connectors at both ends of the cable) with the respective sockets of the connection
adapter and your desired source.
Scart Adapter
If your source does not have a video or S-Video connection use either the S-Video cable (3)
(same connectors at both ends of the cable) or the yellow connector of the AV cable (4)
(yellow, red and white connectors at both ends of the cable) with the scart adapter and then
connect this to your source in order to transfer sound.
To transfer sound also connect the red and white connectors of the AV cable (4) (yellow, red
and white connectors at both ends of the cable) with the scart adapter and your desired
source.
Plug the Video Grabber's USB connector into a free USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port, ensuring your PC is
switched on. Use the enclosed extension cable (6) if necessary to extend the reach of the cable. If
possible, ensure that the Video Grabber is directly connected to your PC (not via a USB Hub).
Only use the device with a USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 connection.
The operating system will automatically detect the Video Grabber. Follow the instructions on the
screen.
Use the enclosed software to record from your source. The software provides detailed usage
instructions in electronic format. Start the relevant program.

Troubleshooting
The Video Grabber is connected but not recognised by the operating system.
Check all the connections.
Are you using a supported operating system?
New USB devices have been recognised and drivers must be installed.
When a USB device is connected to a new port it receives a new ID. This normally requires
driver installation, even if the driver is already installed.
The video received over the S-Video cable is in black and white.
The playback source must be switched to S-Video.

Turvallisuusohjeet
Tämä kuvake tarkoittaa tärkeitä tuotteen ja käyttäjän turvallisuutta koskevia tietoja.
Tämä kuvake tarkoittaa lisätietoja aiheesta.
Käyttöturvallisuus
Noudata tietokoneesi käyttöohjetta.
Pidä laite etäällä kosteudesta ja vältä tärinää, pölyä, kuumuutta ja suoraa auringonpaistetta, jotta
toimintahäiriöt vältetään.
Älä koskaan avaa laitteen runkoa. Takuu raukeaa ja laite saattaa tuhoutua.
Älä koskaan anna lasten leikkiä sähkölaitteilla ilman valvontaa. Lapset eivät aina kykene
tunnistamaan mahdollisia vaaroja. Pienet osat saattavat aiheuttaa nielaistaessa hengenvaaran.
Pidä pakkausmuovit lasten ulottumattomissa. Tukehtumisvaara.

SilverCrest USB 2.0 Video Grabber SVG 2.0 A2 Suomi
19
Ennen kuin otat laitteen käyttöön kuljetuksen jälkeen, odota, että se sopeutuu
ympäristölämpötilaan. Kun lämpötila- ja kosteusheilahtelut ovat suuria, lauhtuminen voi aiheuttaa
kosteuden muodostumista, josta voi olla seurauksena oikosulku.
Ota kaikista kaapeleista kiinni aina pistokkeesta, älä vedä suoraan kaapelista. Älä laita painavia
esineitä kaapelin päälle ja huomioi, ettei kaapelia taiteta erityisesti pistokkeen ja liitinten alueella.
Älä koskaan tee kaapeliin solmua äläkä sido kaapelia yhteen muiden kaapeleiden kanssa. Kaikki
kaapelit on asennettava siten, ettei kukaan astu niiden päälle ja etteivät ne ole kenenkään tiellä.
Lapset
Sähkölaitteet eivät kuulu lasten käsiin. Älä milloinkaan anna lasten käyttää sähkölaitteita ilman
aikuisten valvontaa. Lapset eivät aina kykene tunnistamaan mahdollisia vaaroja. Pidä pakkausmuovit
lasten ulottumattomissa. Tukehtumisvaara.
Sähkömagneettinen yhteensopivuus
Laitteen liitännässä on noudatettava sähkömagneettista yhteensopivuutta (EMC) koskevia määräyksiä.
Säilytä vähintään yhden metrin etäisyys suuritaajuuksisiin ja magneettisiin häiriölähteisiin (esim.
televisio, kaiuttimet, matkapuhelin jne.) toimintahäiriöiden ja tietojen menetyksen välttämiseksi.
Tietojen varmuuskopiointi
Huomioi: Tee aina tietojen päivityksen jälkeen varmuuskopio ulkoisiin tallennusvälineisiin. Hukkaan
menneistä tiedoista ja/tai tietojen menetyksestä aiheutuneista välillisistä vahingoista ei voi vaatia
korvauksia.
