4.0 CONNECTING THE HARDWARE
Referring to the drawing below, connect the proper cable (3x RCA to 3x RCA for YPbPr
component input, HD-15 to HD-15 for PC input or DVI to DVI for DVI input) and then
connect the AC power adaptor.
Next, study the panel drawings and connector/control descriptions below and become
familiar with the control actions, connector functions and power requirements.
1Component (YPbPr) inputs – used with HDTV analog source device
2Infrared Sensor – For use with Remote Control
3Status LEDs – Show which type source is in use
4Menu/Enter – Brings up OSD menu and acts as Enter Key for selections
5See Note Below
6Power On/Off
NOTE: Item 5 is multipurpose: Pressing the “+” key (without first pressing the
Menu/Enter key) will step the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI through the various possible input
sources (YPbPr, PC or DVI) in a sequential manner. Next, pressing the “-“ key (without
first pressing the Menu/Enter key) causes the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI to execute an
automatic alignment of the PC signal components such as picture centering, color, etc.
Lastly, if you press the Menu/Enter key (which causes selection of the OSD or “On

Screen Display”menu mode), the “+” and “-“keys can be used to navigate up and down
through the various menu parameters. Once the desired parameter is highlighted, the
Menu/Enter key is pressed to select the highlighted item. The “+” and/or “-“keys are then
used to effect the actual change or selection.
1Power Adaptor Jack – Connect the provided AC Adaptor here1
2DVI Output – Connect to DVI capable device2
3PC Out (RGB). Connect to PC Monitor or RGB capable Projector
4DVI In – Connect to output from DVI capable device3
5PC In – Connect to a PC’s VGA (Monitor) out
Connect the appropriate cables to the desired connector. Use only the highest quality
cables.
The 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI is very capable and will automatically identify, accept and scale a
host of input types and resolutions (including analog and PC type signals). The output
however will be either DVI with a resolution of 480i to 1080p or RGB with resolutions
from VGA to WUXGA. You must use a display or other destination device that is either
DVI or RGB capable in order to use the output from this product. Since you can specify
the output resolution, you’ll need to know the highest resolution your destination device
is capable of handling and set the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI’s output resolution accordingly.
Note 1: TV One utilizes a special “Twist-to-lock” connector to prevent the power cable
coming loose. Insert the connector into the socket just as you would with other
manufacturer’s power adaptors but once securely inserted, gently twist the connector 90
degrees to the right or left which will lock it in place.
Notes 2&3: To realize maximum quality and performance, use only the highest quality
cables with the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI. Low quality cables will cause degradation of the
signal quality and limit the distance between both the source and destination devices
and the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI.

5.0 OPERATING THE UNIT
The 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI can be operated from either the front panel controls or via the
included Infrared Remote Control. Since Infrared is the control method used most often
by the majority of users, please take the time to familiarize yourself with the location and
function of the various control buttons on the Controller.
* For resolutions not accessible from the Remote, Use the OSD capability.
5.1 Using the On Screen Display Menus
Regardless of whether you operate the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI from the front panel or using
the Remote Controller, you will need to become familiar with the OSD (On Screen
Display) menu structure if you wish to take full advantage of the capability of the
product.

5.1.1 Menu Navigation:
Pressing the “Menu” button will display the OSD menu. If you are using the front panel
control method, you select the desired function by using the “+” and “-“ keys to navigate
to the desired function and then press the Menu/Enter button again to make the
selection. Next, use the “+” and “-“buttons to make the actual adjustment and press the
Menu/Enter button yet again to save your selection. Escape from the OSD menu modes
by highlighting the word “Exit” in any menu and then pressing the Enter button.
From the IR remote controller, press the menu key to activate the OSD, use the arrow
buttons to navigate to the selection you want and then use the arrow buttons and the
“OK” button to make your adjustment or selection. Press the “Exit” button to escape
from the OSD mode.

Note 1: The PC sub-menu is only visible when you have selected PC as your source.
Note 2: H-Position and V-Position are only available when PC mode is selected.
The Video and PC menus appear when Video or PC modes are selected as an input.
Depending on the mode, additional functionality will be exposed when the following

9
functions are selected: Picture Mode: User, Standard and Movie, Scale: Overscan,
Underscan Letterbox and Full Screen., Noise Reduction: Low, Middle, High and Off.
The Color sub-menu calls up four presets that cause the picture to take on a specific
characteristic. Some people prefer the picture to have a slightly reddish (“Warm”)
appearance. This looks more lifelike to them. Others want a bluish (“Cool”) hue and still
others want to adjust the picture and save it as a “User” appearance. Finally, there is
“Normal” which is an appearance that was created using special image analysis
equipment and is therefore considered a standard appearance.
The Output sub-menu allows you to specify the resolution you want the 1T-PCDVI-
PCDVI to produce. As an example, if you are using a DVI display device that can only
accept a 1080i HDTV input signal, you would want to set the output resolution to 1080i.
Keep in mind that setting the resolution can cause an apparent malfunction if you select
a resolution that your display device cannot reproduce. Make certain your display
device can reproduce the resolution you select BEFORE you select it.
The OSD sub-menu allows you to customize the way the On Screen Display appears
when it has been accessed. This is a personal preference matter. You can change the
default if you wish or simply leave it at the factory setting. Lastly, the Info sub-menu
contains technical information. If you have problems with the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI and
require assistance, the technician may ask you to read information from this menu to
him as part of the troubleshooting process.
6.0 TROUBLESHOOTING
If the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI Scaler does not appear to be functioningmake certain that the
source and all other devices connected to the unit are functioning correctly by
connecting each device currently connected to the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI’s outputs directly
to the source using a short length of cable. (In other words, bypass the 1T-PCDVI-
PCDVI to make certain that the problem is not with the source or destination devices.) If
the signal is present under those conditions, make certain that the power is present to
the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI. If it is, check all cables for damage. Cables should be
undamaged, as short as possible and should be premium quality.
Note: It is strongly recommended that you use high quality cables in order to achieve
maximum distance cable runs and the best performance possible. Use of low quality
cables will seriously degrade the performance of the 1T-PCDVI-PCDVI Scaler.
As a final step before contacting technical support, use the IR remote and press the
RESET button which will return the unit to the default settings.
After trying the above suggestions should the problem still persist, contact your dealer
for additional suggestions before contacting TV One. Should the dealer’s technical
personnel be unable to assist you, contact TV One via our support website:

support team will respond within a short period of time.
