Extron Electronics DSC HD-3G A User Guide - Manual (Page 9)

Both Models
• Advanced scaling engine — Image scaling and video format conversion are
performed at 30-bit precision for enhanced color accuracy and picture detail. High
performance deinterlacing for 1080i signals from HD sources delivers optimized
image quality.
• Selectable output rates — Available output rates include:
• DSC 3G-HD A: Computer video from 640x480 to 1920x1080 (1080p) and
2048x1080 (2k)
• DSC HD-3G A: HDTV rates from 480i to 1080p and 2k.
• Aspect ratio control — The aspect ratio of the video output can be controlled by
selecting a fill mode, which provides a full screen output, or a follow mode, which
preserves the original aspect ratio of the input signal.
• AFL™ - Accu-RATE Frame Lock — A patented technology exclusive to Extron that
locks the output frame rate to a designated input to eliminate stuttering caused by
frame rate conversion.
• Front panel LED indicators — Provides visual indication of system status for real-
time feedback and monitoring of signal format, presence, and power.
• Windows-based Control Program — A Windows-based software program is
provided on DVD with the DSC. This program lets you configure and control the
scaler from your computer via an RS-232 or USB connection.
• Image freeze control — A live image can be frozen using RS-232 serial control or
USB.
• Auto Memory — When activated, the unit automatically stores size, position, and
picture settings based on the incoming signal. When the same signal is detected
again, these image settings are automatically recalled from memory.
• On-screen menus — On-screen menus enable system setup using the front panel
controls. Key parameters such as input and output video formats are grouped for
convenience on the initial Quick Setup screen, while additional screens provide full
control over the other functions and settings.
• Output Standby Mode — Automatically mutes the video and syncs output to the
display device when no active input signal is detected. This allows the projector
or flat-panel display to automatically enter into standby mode to save energy and
enhance lamp or panel life.
• Power Save Mode — Places the unit in a low power standby state to conserve
energy when not in use.
• Automatic 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection — Advanced film mode processing
techniques that help maximize image detail and sharpness for NTSC, PAL, and HDTV
1080i sources that originated from film
• Picture controls — Enable control of brightness, contrast, detail, horizontal and
vertical positioning, overscan, and sizing.
• User presets — Memory presets are available for each input to store and recall
optimized image settings.
• LockIt HDMI cable lacing bracket provided
• Internal test patterns — Offers a crop pattern, grayscale, color bars, alternating
pixels, audio pink noise, and four aspect ratio patterns: 1.33, 1.78, 1.85, and 2.35
• Audio input gain and attenuation — Gain and attenuation can be adjusted for the
analog stereo input.
