Frequently Asked Questions - RGB 192V Extron

How do I connect a computer to the RGB 192V?

Connect the computer's video output to the 15-pin HD Computer Input on the rear panel. For audio (unbalanced stereo), connect to the 3.5 mm mini stereo jack Audio Input. Use the included VGA cable (model VGAM 6' MHRA).

What output formats are supported?

The RGB 192V outputs RGBHV (separate H and V sync) using five BNC connectors, RGBS (composite sync) using four BNCs, or RGsB (sync on green) using three BNCs. Select RGsB via DIP switch 2 (SOG).

How do I adjust the horizontal position of the image?

Turn the front panel H Shift control to move the image left or right. Note that DDSP disables this control; if DDSP is enabled (DIP switch 4 On), use the display's own centering controls instead.

What is DDSP and when should I use it?

DDSP (Digital Display Sync Processing) bypasses internal sync processing to avoid sync timing issues with digital displays (LCD, DLP, plasma). Enable it (DIP switch 4 On) if you experience image instability or no display after other adjustments.

How do I set the output brightness or level?

Use the front panel Level DIP switch (switch 1). Off gives 0.7 V p-p; On gives 0.8 V p-p with peaking for longer cable runs. Toggle while viewing to select the best picture.

My image shows flagging or bending at the top – what should I do?

Set the Serration Pulse DIP switch (switch 3) to Off to remove serration pulses from the vertical sync. This is often needed for LCD and DLP projectors.

Can I use the RGB 192V with a Macintosh or SGI computer?

The RGB 192V is designed for PC computers (included cable). For Mac or SGI, you need optional adapter kits: Mac Adapter 15-HDM Kit with audio (70-156-01) or 13W3 Adapter 15-HDM Kit with audio (70-157-01).

How do I wire the audio output connector?

Use the included 5-pole captive screw connector. For balanced stereo, connect left (+)/(-) and right (+)/(-) to corresponding pins and sleeves to ground. For unbalanced, connect left and right signals to tip pins and sleeves to ground. See Figure 2-8 in the manual for details.

What is the warranty period for the RGB 192V?

Extron provides a 3-year warranty on parts and labor. Proof of purchase is required. The warranty does not cover misuse, modification, or abuse.

How do I mount the interface under a desk?

Attach the included under-desk mounting brackets (70-077-01) using the pre-installed screws on the sides. Secure the brackets to the underside of the desk with the provided wood screws. See Figure 2-1 in the manual.

Features

Introduction

About this Manual

This manual contains information about the Extron RGB 190F, RGB 192, and RGB 198 universal interfaces, detailing how to operate and configure them. The three interfaces are functionally identical, with the exception of the audio capabilities of the RGB 192 and RGB 198. All interfaces are described in this manual; differences are noted where they exist.

About the RGB 190F, RGB 192 and RGB 198

The RGB 190F, RGB 192, and RGB 198 are analog computer-video interfaces with 300 MHz (-3 dB) video bandwidth and Digital Display Sync Processing™ (DDSP™). Figure 1-1 shows a typical RGB 198 application; as noted above, the RGB 190F and the RGB 192 have a similar setup. The interfaces accept a computer video and an unbalanced computer stereo audio input. They feature a local monitor output and an RGBHV, RGBS or RGsB output. The interfaces feature horizontal centering and level boost. The RGB 192 and RGB 198 also feature a balanced, line level stereo or mono audio output.

Figure 1-1 — Typical RGB 198 application

All three interfaces allow for furniture and under-desk mounting. The RGB 198 is rack mountable as well. The RGB 190F and RGB 192 have external switching power supplies for worldwide power compatibility, while the RGB 198 provides an internal power supply.

Each RGB interface has two or more model options:

Three RGB 190F models

•RGB 190FV for PC computers

•RGB 190FM for Macintosh computers

•RGB 190FS for SGI computers

Two RGB 192 models

• RGB 192V for PC computers

• RGB 192S for SGI computers

These two models are otherwise identical with the exception of the video input cable supplied.

Two RGB 198 models

•The RGB 198 provides an AC outlet with two Edison plugs.

•The RGB 198 EU provides an AC outlet with two Euro plugs for European markets.

With the appropriate cable adapters, both of these models are compatible with Macintosh computer and SGI computers.

Features

Flexible mounting options — The interface can be mounted under a desk or podium, mounted on a rack (RGB 198 only), or through a desk with optional mounting kits.
Stereo audio (RGB 192 and 198 only) — The interface outputs unbalanced PC stereo audio as line level, balanced stereo (or, depending on a DIP switch position, mono).
Level (boost) control — A front panel control compensates for signal losses from long cable runs.
Horizontal centering control — A front panel control allows a horizontal centering adjustment.
Sync processing — Using regular sync processing to allow centering control (H-shift) can create problems with some digital display devices as a result of the sync delay. Extron's DDSP (Digital Display Sync Processing), ensures proper displays without altering sync pulse timing or width. The sync processing type is selected via the front panel DIP switches.

Introduction, cont'd

RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB outputs — Select the output format via cabling setup and front panel DIP switch.

Serration pulse switch — This DIP switch-selectable feature adds or strips the serration pulses from the output signal to make it compatible with digital display devices. Use the serration pulse switch if flagging or bending occurs at the top of the video display.

Installation Overview

This is an overview of the installation process. You will find detailed installation and operation instructions in this chapter. Install and set up the RGB 190F, RGB 192, or RGB 198 interfaces by following these basic steps:

1 Turn off all of the equipment (computers, remote controls, interface, projector/monitor, local monitor and speakers or other audio device). Disconnect the power cords from the power source.
2 Install the rubber feet for tabletop use, or install the appropriate brackets to rack mount the interface. See Mounting the Interfaces below.
3 Connect the input (computer video and audio [RGB 192 and 198 only]) and outputs (display, local monitor, and audio [RGB 192 and 198 only]). See Connections and Switches in this chapter.
4 Set the front panel DIP switches. See Connections and Switches, in this chapter, as a guide.
5 Connect power cords and turn on the devices: output devices (projector, monitors, speakers [RGB 192 and 198 only]), interface, and the source computer.
6 Adjust horizontal centering and set the Level DIP switch to obtain the best picture.

Mounting the Interfaces

The interfaces provide several mounting options: tabletop placement, under-desk mounting, through-desk mounting or (for the RGB 198 only) rack mounting. Follow the appropriate procedure on the next three pages.

Tabletop placement

For tabletop or desktop placement only, install the self-adhesive rubber feet/pads (provided) onto the four corners of the bottom of the interface enclosure.

Under-desk mounting

1. Secure the included under-desk mounting brackets (part #70-077-01) to the interface with the machine screws that are already installed in the side of the interface (figure 2-1).

Figure 2-1 — Under-desk mounting

1. Hold the interface with attached brackets against the underside of the desk or other furniture. Mark the location of holes for screws on the desk.
2. Drill pilot holes 1/4" (6.4 mm) deep, and 3/32" (2 mm) diameter in the table or desk at the marked screw locations from the underside/inside (concealed side) of the furniture, where the interface will be located.
3. Insert the four wood screws into the pilot holes. Fasten each screw into the installation surface until just less than 1/4" of the screw protrudes.
4. Align the installed screws with the slots in the mounting brackets, and place the interface against the surface, with the screws through the bracket slots.
5. Slide the interface slightly forward or back, then tighten all four screws to fasten it in place.

Through-desk mounting

1. If rubber feet were installed on the interface, remove them.
2. Insert the machine screws that are already installed in the side of the interface through the slots in the through-desk mounting brackets (part #70-077-02), and loosely secure the brackets to the interface (figure 2-2).

Installation and Operation, cont'd

1. Hold the interface with attached brackets against the underside of the desk/table. With a soft pencil mark the location of holes for screws on the desk based on the following:

For the RGB 190 and RGB 192, mark the opening approximately 1.0" x 5.7" (2.5 cm x 14.5 cm).

For the RGB 198, mark the opening approximately 1.75" x 13.0" (4.5 cm x 33.0 cm).

Figure 2-2 — Through-desk mounting

1. Cut out the material from the installation area with a jigsaw. Check the opening size by inserting the interface part way through the hole. If needed, use a saw, file or sandpaper to enlarge the hole. Smooth the edges of the hole with sandpaper.
2. Drill pilot holes 1/4" (6.4 mm) deep, and 3/32" (2 mm) diameter in the underside or inside (concealed side) of the furniture where the interface will be located.
3. Secure the interface to the desk with the provided wood screws.
4. To adjust the height of the interface within the desk, slide the interface up or down to the desired position, then tighten the screws that attach the brackets to the interface.

Rack mounting (RGB 198 only)

1. Remove rubber feet if they were previously installed on the bottom of the interface.
2. Mount the interface on either side of an 19" 1U Universal Rack Shelf (part # 60-190-01) using two 4-40 x 3/16" screws to secure it to the shelf. See figure 2-3.
3. Install blank panel(s) or other unit(s) on the rack shelf.
4. Attach the rack shelf to the rack using the supplied bolts.

Figure 2-3 — Rack mounting

Connections and Switches

Figures 2-4 and 2-5 show the front and rear panel of the RGB 192 and the RGB 198, respectively. With the exception of audio features (numbers ② and ⑨), all numbers for figure 2-4 pertain to both the RGB 190 and 192 models.

① Power indicator —

Amber — Indicates power is applied.

Green — Indicates that power is applied and a sync signal is present on the input.

Figure 2-4 — RGB 192 front and rear panel features

Installation and Operation, cont'd

Figure 2-5 — RGB 198 front and rear panel features

2 Audio input (RGB 192 and 198 only) — Connect the unbalanced stereo audio source (such as a computer or a CD player) to this 3.5 mm mini stereo jack for unbalanced audio input. Figure 2-6 shows how to wire the audio jack.

Figure 2-6 — Audio input connector wiring

③ Computer Input — Connect the analog computer-video source to this 15-pin HD female connector.

NOTE Most laptop or notebook computers have an external video port, but they require special commands to output the video to that connector. Also, laptops' screens shut off once that port is activated. See the computer's user's guide for details, or contact Extron for a list of laptop keyboard commands.

④ Monitor Output — If desired, connect a local monitor or other device to this 15-pin HD female connector.

⑤ H( horizontal) Shift — While viewing the displayed image, rotate this control to move the image to the right or left on the screen.

NOTE DDSP disables the interface's Horizontal Shift control.

To use the display's centering controls instead of the interface's controls, set the DDSP DIP switch to On.

⑥ DIP switches — This bank of DIP switches is used to configure the interface. The switches control:

• Level
• SOG (sync on green)
• Serration pulses

D D S P

• Monitor or no monitor (ID bit termination)

• Mono or stereo audio (RGB 192 and 198 only, spare on RGB 190F)

NOTE The default for all DIP switches is Off (down).

1 — Level (and peaking)

The Level control alters the video output voltage to affect the brightness of the displayed image. Turn the switch on and off while viewing the displayed image to set the level that provides the best picture quality. If the interface receives a typical (0.7 volts p-p) analog computer video input, the output is as follows:

On — 0.8 volts p-p with peaking

Off — 0.7 volts p-p

2 — Sync on green

On — The interface outputs a composite sync signal on top of the green video signal (SOG) via the G output connector (RGsB).

Off — The interface outputs separate horizontal and vertical sync (on the 11 and V connectors) and composite sync (on the S connector) for RGBHV or RGBS.

3 — Serration pulses — Many LCD and DLP projectors and plasma displays do not display properly if serration pulses are present in the sync signal. Flagging or bending at the top of the video image is a sign that the serration pulses should be removed.

On — The interface outputs serration pulses in the vertical sync interval.

Off — The interface does not output serration pulses.

Installation and Operation, cont'd

4—DDSP

DDSP disables all sync processing. This feature may be necessary for digital display devices such as LCD, DLP (digital light processor) and plasma displays. Use this option if the image is not displayed properly after other options, such as serration pulse and video termination changes, have been tried.

On — The interface uses DDSP, which does not process the sync signal.

NOTE

DDSP disables the horizontal and vertical centering controls.

Off — The interface performs sync processing operations.

5 — No monitor (ID bit termination) — This switch controls the input assigned to the local monitor output and ID bit termination.

On — ID bits 4 and 11 are tied to ground.

Off — ID bits 4 and 11 are unterminated.

6 — Mono audio output (RGB 192 only, spare on RGB 190F)

On — Monaural audio is output on the left channel only. When mono is selected, the right and left inputs are combined and placed on the left output connectors.

Off — Normal stereo output.

⑦ Power connector — Plug the external 12 V power supply into this 2-pole captive screw connector. The power supply is included with the unit. Figure 2-7 shows how to wire the connector.

NOTE

Do not tin the stripped power supply leads before installing the captive screw connector. Tinned wires are not as secure in the captive screw connectors and could pull out.

Figure 2-7 — Power connector wiring

WARNING

The two power cord wires must be kept separate while the power supply is plugged in. Remove power before continuing.

2-8 2-9 RGB 190F, RGB 192, and RGB 198 • Installation and Operation

To verify the polarity before connection, check the no-load power supply output with a voltmeter.

⑧ BNC output connectors — Connect a coaxial cable between the display (projector or monitor) and these rear panel BNC connectors.

For RGBHV (separate H and V sync) output, connect the cables to five BNCs.

For RGBS (composite sync), connect the cables to four BNCs.

For RGsB (sync on green, SOG), connect the cables to three BNCs. Also select the SOG option on the front panel DIP switch (see item ⑥, Dip switches, in this chapter.

9 Stereo audio output connector (RGB 192 and 198 only) — Connect an audio device, such as powered speakers, to this 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connector for balanced or unbalanced stereo or mono audio output. Stereo or mono output is determined by a DIP switch setting on the front panel. See DIP

The illustration here shows how to wire the captive screw audio connector. The connector is included with the interface, but

you must obtain the cable. Insert the wires into the appropriate openings in the captive screw connector. Tighten the screws on top to fasten the wires.

⑩ Unswitched AC outlets — These AC outlets are available in an Edison or Euro plug.
⑪ MAAP openings — Two double MAAP openings, one adjacent to the other, allow up to four single-sized MAAP pass through audio and video connectors.
⑫ Double AAP openings — This plate allows easy access to the back of the MAAPs while safely isolating the power supply and interface.
⑬ IEC AC power plug — Provides convenient power input.

Operation and Troubleshooting

Connect the power cords and turn on the displays (projectors or monitors), audio output devices (sound system - RGB 192 and 198 only), the interface and the input device (computer). The image should appear on screen, and sound should be audible (RGB 192 and 198 only). If not, ensure that all devices are plugged in and receiving power. Check the cabling and switch settings, and make adjustments as needed.

If the image does not appear or there is no sound

1. Ensure that all devices are plugged in.
2. Make sure that each device is receiving power. The interface's front panel LED lights green if the interface is receiving power and an active sync signal.

3. Check the cabling and the audio connector wiring and grounding, and make adjustments as needed.

4. For digital display devices (including LCD, DLP and plasma devices), try turning the DDSP DIP switch (switch 4) On (up) or Off (down) on the front panel.

5. To test the system setup and output, substitute a video test generator for the computer input. Unplug the input and output devices' and the interface's power cords, replace the video source with a VTG, then reconnect power cords to restore AC power.
6. Call the Extron S ³ Sales & Technical Support Hotline if needed.

If the image is not displayed correctly

• If the output image looks too green, the sync on green (SOG) DIP switch (switch 2) may be set to On (up), and the display device may not be configured to handle SOG signals. Set the switch to Off (down).
  • If the picture bends or flags at the top of the screen, set the serration pulse DIP switch (switch 3) to Off (down).
• For a display device that experiences intermittent glitches, try turning DDSP On (up) or Off (down) using DIP switch 1 on the front panel.
  • If the picture hangs off the edge of the screen, adjust the Horizontal Shift control.
• If the edges of the image seem to exceed their boundaries or if thin lines and sharp edges look thick and fuzzy, try changing the Level DIP switch (switch 1) to On (up). If the image is too bright, turn the Level switch to Off (down).
  • If the image still does not display correctly, call the Extron S ³ Sales & Technical Support Hotline.

If the interface does not respond to controls

If the picture does not move on screen when the horizontal shift control is rotated, DDSP is in use. Set the DDSP DIP switch (switch 4) on the front panel to Off (down).
