Horizontal Tracking:
(Composite / S-Video Signals Only) This control adjusts horizontal sync
tracking to prevent image bending (hooking) along the top of the video image. Various settings
are available to compensate for different quality input signals:
Very Fast For poor quality video signals, such as from a VCR.
Fast For normal quality video signals, such as from a TV.
Normal For good quality video signals, such as from a DVD player.
Slow For high quality video signals, such as broadcast video.
Fine Phase: Adjusts the amount of phase shift applied to the input signal. If video noise is
present in the image, the fine phase control may be effective in optimizing the image to remove
video noise due to input timing errors. Fine Phase is only available for Interlace Component,
Progressive Component, RGBHV, RGBS and RGsB signal formats.
Advanced: The Input menu also includes several adjustments under the Advanced settings
option. These adjustments are rarely needed for standard video signals and computer video
signals and are mainly designed to optimize the quality when inputting non-standard or
proprietary video signals. Most users should not adjust the Advanced Input settings. For
additional details on Advanced Input Settings, please see Advanced Input Settings Section on
page 29.
Reset Input: Resets all input settings to factory default (for the current input only).
OUTPUT MENU
To access the output menu via the front panel control buttons, press MENU, press the
¿ or ¾
button (if necessary) to reach the output menu, then press ENTER. Use the
¾ and ¿ buttons
and the ENTER key to select the setting you wish to adjust. Once you’ve optimized the setting
for the current output, press ENTER to save.
Output Resolution: This control lets you select the appropriate resolution for your display
device. The available resolutions are listed on page 27. Because the IN1408 only scales up,
users must choose an output resolution that is greater than or equal to the input size. For instance,
you may not select 640 x 480 output with PAL input signals since PAL has more than 480 lines
of video.
Refresh Rate: Allows users to choose the optimal refresh rate for their display device.
Á
Note: Not all resolution and refresh rate combinations are available. Refer to the chart on
page 27 for a chart of available resolutions / refresh rates.
Key Concept
Of all the settings on the IN1408, perhaps the most critical adjustments are
the output resolution and output refresh rates. Setting the scaler to match
the capabilities of your data display device will have an enormous impact
on the image quality. To achieve the optimum image on your display
device, refer to the instructions on pages 25 & 26.
