Pro Convert for NDI® to HDMI IRGBEBELED HDMI OUT USB-HOST HDMI-POWER USB-HOST

Overview

Pro Convert™ family of NDI decoders are built on NewTek's extremely popular NDI media-over-IP technology, converting live NDI streams into high-quality outputs for connection to baseband devices such as monitors and projectors. The low-latency decoder simplifies the use of NewTek's popular media-over-IP technology in applications such as digital signage and video walls.

The ultra-compact Pro Convert devices are ideal for both in-studio and portable field use. The decoder features DHCP-based automatic network configuration, while a browser-based interface provides access to status monitoring and advanced features such as FPGA-based up/down/cross-conversion. Two on-device buttons also enable users to select source content and match the output format to their target display without requiring a computer.

Safety Information

Electrical Safety

• Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension cord. These devices could interrupt the grounding circuit.
  • Make sure that you are using the correct power adapter for the local voltage. If you are not sure about the voltage of the electrical outlet you are using, contact your local power company.
  • If the power adapter is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact a qualified service technician or your retailer for help.

Operation Safety

• Before using the product, make sure all cables are correctly connected and the power cables are not damaged. If you notice any damage, contact your dealer immediately.
  • To avoid short circuits, keep paper clips, screws, and staples away from connectors, slots, sockets and circuitry.
• Avoid dust, humidity, and temperature extremes. Do not place the product in any area where it may become wet.
• Place the product on a stable surface.

Setting NDI®OPTIONS

• Discovery Server

Turn on the switch for the decoder to auto-detect a source sender in different network segment but be able to pinged. And the Server IP should be the IP address of the server running discovery server software. By default, it is off.

- Group name

Specify the Group name which the source belongs to. It is non case-sensitive, and should contain A to Z, a to z, 0 to 9 and special characters like _. The group name entry can contain comma-separated values, allowing your decoder to receive all the groups listed here. By default, it is public.

- Low bandwidth

Turn on the switch for decoding NDI stream when the network bandwidth is too low to have a smooth video. Generally, if the resolution is higher than 2048 x 1080, it will be reduced to a quarter of the original resolution; otherwise it will be reduced to half of the original value. Meanwhile, the frame rate will drop to about 15 FPS. By default, it is off.

Note that you need to click Apply at the bottom-right corner of the NDI® OPTIONS to save changes.

Warranty

Limited Warranty

Except otherwise set between you and Magewell in advance in a written form, the free limited warranty service starts from the date on your proof of purchase. The proof can be: sales contract, formal sales receipt, invoice or delivery note. The earliest date of these proofs is the starting date of the free limited warranty.

The period of free limited warranty goes as below:

• Pro Convert Family: two (2) years;
• The USB cable and power adapter provided as accessories: one (1) year;

How to get the limited warranty

1. Please contact the Magewell support team by email ([e-mail]) first, to determine whether your problem can only be solved by returning it to Magewell for repair. Magewell might ask you to take photos of the front and back of the defective products.
2. Magewell will issue an RMA letter to you if it is confirmed that you need to return the faulty product for further examination or repair. Please fill in the RMA with necessary information as required.
   If it is regular repair, you will be responsible for the shipping cost, duties and insurance cost (if applicable); if the product is DOA, Magewell will be responsible for the shipping cost.
3. If some components need to be replaced, Magewell will decide to repair, renovate or replace the components by itself. Magewell may use new or repaired component to repair the product. The repaired product can be expected to work normally and the performance to remain the same. Repaired products can work in a good working condition and at least function the same as the original unit. The original replaced component will become the property of Magewell and components which are replaced for the client will become his/her property.
4. If the product is within warranty, Magewell will repair or replace the faulty units at its own discretion. In circumstances where the faulty unit is replaced by another one, Magewell may use new, repaired or renovated units. The faulty unit will then become the property of Magewell while the replacement unit will become the property of the purchaser.
5. If the warranty expires, Magewell will inform the purchaser whether the products can be repaired and the maintenance costs they need to pay. If purchasers

decide to repair, Magewell will repair, renovate, or replace the components after receiving the maintenance costs. If purchasers give up repairing, Magewell will dispose of the faulty unit if the purchaser chooses that option.

1. The repaired or replaced product assumes 1) the remaining term of the Warranty of the replaced unit or faulty unit; 2) ninety (90) days from the date of replacement or repair, whichever provides longer coverage for you. The extended warranty is only valid for repaired/replaced components.
2. The period of service depends on the client's location (country and area) and the product.
