Component Video - The IN1700 can be directly connected to high-end video recorders and other
industrial / broadcast video equipment featuring analog component video inputs.
RGBHV / RGBS - This output provides the best clarity and color accuracy, and should be used if
your display equipment has the appropriate inputs. This format is most frequently used with
industrial and professional grade video projectors, RGB monitors and retro-projectors.
The IN1700 local monitor output provides a loop-through signal (not scan converted) for a local
computer monitor. The unit can be set for NTSC or PAL output as required.
INPUT / OUTPUT ADAPTER AND EXTENSION CABLES
The IN1700 has a 15-Pin HD VGA / MAC G3 & G4 and a 15-pin D MAC-type connector for
input and local monitor output. The IN9140M reversible adapter cable provided with the unit
will handle most applications involving VGA, MAC, and SGI computers featuring 15-pin HD or
15-pin D video ports. The following input / output adapter and extension cables are available to
support a variety of other computer and local monitor applications.

Installation
This section offers step-by-step instructions for installing the IN1700 Scan Converter. An
APPLICATION DIAGRAM is located on page 6.
Note: Read the instructions carefully before initiating the installation procedure. Make sure that
there is no power connected to the IN1700 and that the power button is off.
1. Place / install the IN1700 at the desired location. Make sure that the unit is seated on a flat
surface or is securely installed in a standard 19” equipment rack using the IN9129B rack ears
(optional). The IN1700 is exactly 1U high without the feet. If other equipment will be
located in the space directly below the scan converter, the rubber feet on the bottom of the
unit must be removed before mounting it in the equipment rack.
2. Using the IN9140M cable supplied with the unit, connect the computer’s VGA / MAC video
port to the IN1700 VGA / MAC INPUT PORT. To connect SUN, SGI and other high-
resolution workstations featuring 13W3 or BNC video ports, refer to the ADAPTER &
EXTENSION CABLES chart above.
