C2-2105A DVI/PC to HD/SD Converter is based on T
V
One’s exclusive CORIO®2 technology and provides high
quality conversion from DVI and analog PC or HD
sources to standard video formats. The input can be an
y
analog computer resolution up to 2048x2048 and 1080p
or any DVI resolution up to 1920x1200 and 1080p.
A
wide variety of computer signal formats are available to
support PC, Mac and Workstation formats. Our exclusive
A
utoSet feature takes the hassle out of setup by
automatically sizing and positioning the computer image
to fit exactly on the video screen. The output can be
SD/HD-SDI, YUV, YC, Composite Video, YC or YPbP
r
(Progressive Scan) Component. NTSC, PAL, PAL-M,
PAL-N, SECAM output standards are supported.
All settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are
retained even when power is switched off. Ten use
r
defined presets are also available to customize settings
for various applications.
A
ll the functions can be
controlled via the front panel Push Buttons, an Infrared
Control Remote Unit, an RS-232 or IP connection.
A
Windows Control Panel is provided and most third party
control systems interface directly with the entire C2
range of products. A front panel LCD makes setup easy.
The unit is housed in a esktop case and an optional
rackmount kit is available that holds one or two units.
Variable Zoom to 10X enlarges any part of the compute
r
screen to fill the entire video screen and position controls
allow movement to any area desired. Variable Shrink to
as little as 10% allows fitting the image onto mos
t
displays. The advanced Digital Flicker Elimination
circuitry and high sampling rate insures crisp, clea
r
images, while full bandwidth chroma sampling insures
faithfully reproduced, high resolution colors. Temporal
interpolation greatly improves frame rate conversion by
analyzing and merging successive frames. Pixel Level
Motion Adaptive Diagonal Interpolation insures high
quality de-interlacing of PAL and NTSC signals. The
Composite Video Genlock feature insures precise
synchronization of the incoming signals by providing a
wide Subcarrier lock range with SC phase adjustment.
PIP, Chromakey, Lumakey and Mix are among the
advanced features added in the C2-2155A version,
which also has all C2-2105A features. The Key Mode
allows computer graphics to be keyed over an external
Composite or YC signal. The keyed image may be faded
in and out. Due to the 4:4:4 sampling format, precise
keying at the pixel level can be achieved. The Mix Mode
permits Seamless Cut, Fade or Wipe transitions
between input sources. The PIP Mode allows either o
f
the computer inputs to be inset in a window over eithe
r
of the video inputs or vice versa. The PIP window may
be placed anywhere on the screen.
Input Expansion is possible by using the optional S2
Series Input Expansion Modules for DVI or RGB/YPbPr.
These units link to C2-2105A/2155A unit via an
OPTIONS Interconnect Cable and become an integral
part of the main unit from a control and operational

standpoint. The routing of these additional inputs is
controlled directly from the control system of the C2-
2105A/2155A and multiple different S2 models may be
simultaneously connected.
Advanced Stereo Audio processing and switching is
available via the optional S2-106AD Input Expansion
Switcher, providing six differential audio inputs, which
can be used for low impedance balanced or high
impedance unbalanced sources. The user controls
audio level, audio sampling frequencies and up to
999ms of adjustable audio delay independently for each
input. The unit has numerous choices for audio I/O
connectors, including a terminal block. The S2-106AD
connects to the C2-2105A/2155A via the OPTIONS
interconnect cable and is then fully integrated into the
control system of the host unit.
