2 BELANGRIJKE VEILIGHEIDSINSTRUCTIES
Lees deze handleiding zorgvuldig door om het beste uit uw product te halen.
Bewaar het op een veilige plek voor raadpleging in de toekomst.
Haal nooit het omhulsel van de eenheid af, dit om de kans op een elektrische schok
te verminderen. Maak het apparaat nooit open: er bevinden zich geen door de
gebruiker in te stellen onderdelen in het apparaat. Laat service en onderhoud over
aan een gekwalificeerde technicus.
2.1 Elektriciteit en aansluiting
Dit toestel moet worden aangesloten op een netcontactdoos met een
aardsluitingsbeveiliging.
Deze eenheid is niet van de wisselstroom voedingsbron gescheiden wanneer de
stekker nog in het stopcontact zit. Wanneer de eenheid uitstaat, staat deze nog in
de stand-by modus. In de stand-by modus vergt de eenheid minder stroom dan in
de normale "aan" modus.
Wanneer u de eenheid voor langere tijd niet gebruikt, zorg er dan voor dat de
stekker van het wisselstroomsnoer uit het stopcontact is getrokken.
Het wisselstroom stopcontact moet dichtbij de eenheid geïnstalleerd worden en
makkelijk toegankelijk zijn.
Als de eenheid duidelijk beschadigd is moet u deze nooit op het lichtnet aansluiten
of bedienen.
2.2 Water en vocht
Om het risiko op brand en persoonlijk letsel te beperken is het gebruik van dit
apparaat buiten en/of blootstelling aan regen, water of overdadige hoeveelheden
vocht uitdrukkelijk verboden.
Het apparaat mag niet worden blootgesteld aan druppels of bespatting en er mogen
geen objecten die gevuld zijn met vloeistoffen, zoals vazen, op het apparaat
geplaatst worden.
2.3 Algemeen onderhoud
Forceer schakelaars of externe aansluitingen nooit.
Bij verplaatsing van de eenheid, de seriële poortaansluitingen eerst loskoppelen,
dan de voedingskabel en als laatste de snoeren naar andere apparaten.
Probeer de eenheid nooit met chemische oplosmiddelen of schoonmaakmiddelen
in een spuitbus schoon te maken, omdat dit de eenheid kan beschadigen. Gebruik
een schone droge doek.

C2-2450AOPERATION MANUAL
12
2.4 Plaatsing
Deze eenheid moet geïnstalleerd worden op een koele droge plaats, uit de buurt
van bronnen van extreme hitte, vibraties, stof, vocht en kou.
2.5 Ventilatie
De sleuven en openingen aan de zijkant van de eenheid zijn voor ventilatie. Zorg er
voor dat de eenheid op een goed geventileerde plek geïnstalleerd wordt zodat deze
betrouwbaar werkt.
2.6 Intellectueel eigendom
Sommige IC chips in dit product bevatten vertrouwelijke informatie en/of
fabrieksgeheimen. U mag daarom de inhoud hiervan niet kopiëren, wijzigen,
aanpassen, vertalen, verspreiden, nabouwen, of decompileren

3 CAPABILITY, DEVICE FEATURES AND PRODUCT
FEATURES
3.1 Device Capabilities
The C2-2450A uses the proprietary CORIO®2 Engine to perform its functions, being
the second generation of the successful CORIO®products. The CORIO®2
technology is a powerful toolset for any application requiring high quality video
signal conversion or image manipulation.
The unit features a single video processing and scaling engine, tailored to meet the
demands of an edge-blending system – when used with multiple units (one per
projector).
The unit offers enhanced functionality up to DVI resolutions of 1920x1200@60Hz
with full HDCP support on the DVI input and output.
Edge-blending adjustments such as gamma and black-level control aid the setup of
complex systems. Guide-lines can be activated from the front of the unit, as can
pure black and white signals to help the user achieve the best blends.
3.2 Device Features
General Topography
4:4:4 RGB / YUV sampling provides full bandwidth color which allows precise
keying where included in the unit’s capabilities. This can be achieved through the
transparent (soft) keys on the front of the unit. Each unit’s video inputs
accommodate multiple video and computer signal formats and resolutions – see
specifications at end of manual for full details.
Ultimate flexibility
The C2-2000 series’ output signal format flexibility assures that the Native
Resolution of virtually any display can be matched. Because of the resolution
calculator (included in the Windows® Control Panel), even new resolutions can be
added to the unit. Signal parameter adjustments can be made for each video input
and are stored in individual non-volatile memories for retrieval once the unit’s power
has been removed.
Simple Control
The unit can be controlled in various ways. One option is to control it from the front
panel. Another option would be to control the unit from an infra-red remote control.
It can also be controlled via RS-232 or via Ethernet using the Windows Control
Panel or Edge Blend Tool.
Upgradeability
All C2-2000 units benefit from firmware upgradeability, thus reducing product
obsolescence by allowing the installation of the latest version of firmware. This not

C2-2450AOPERATION MANUAL
14
only applies to the software used to control the unit, but also to the range of
resolutions stored inside the unit, the addition of new features, and upgrades to the
heart of the image processing hardware – the CORIO®2 scaling engine. See
http://www.tvone.com/support for more detail.
