About this Guide
This guide contains information about the Extron DVS 510 Series of switching scalers with instructions for experienced installers on how to install, configure, and operate the equipment.
In this guide, the terms "DVS," "DVS 510," and "scaler" are used interchangeably to refer to DVS 510 and the DVS 510 SA scalers.
The DVS 510 Series Scalers
The Extron DVS 510 Series scalers are 10-input, multi-format presentation switching scalers that accept and scale DVI, RGB, YUVp/HDTV, YUVi, S-video, and composite video signals to a common, high resolution output rate. With simultaneous DVI and two analog RGB/YUV outputs, the DVS 510 can integrate analog and digital video devices, and HDCP compliance enables integration of Blu-ray Disc players and cable or satellite HD receivers. The DVS 510 also offers flexible control options, including front panel controls, Ethernet, RS-232 or RS-422, and infrared (IR).
The DVS 510 also includes 10-input stereo audio switching to accompany incoming video sources. Gain and attenuation adjustment is provided for each input, and the DVS 510 provides master volume control on the front panel. Also included are bass and treble controls, as well as integrated audio delay to maintain audio sync with the processed video output.
The DVS 510 is available in two configurations: the standard DVS 510, which offers fixed and variable line level audio outputs, and the DVS 510 SA, which adds an integrated stereo amplifier with 25 watts rms output per channel into 4 or 8 ohms.
Features
The DVS 510 provides the following features:
- Video upscaling and downscaling — DVI, RGB computer video, high definition video, and standard definition video sources can all be scaled to the desired output resolution. The DVS 510 scaling engine provides high quality upscaling and downscaling of high resolution computer video signals.
- High Performance Video Processing — A high performance 30-bit scaling engine is able to scale standard definition video, HDTV, and RGB signals up or down in resolution. It accepts computer video signals up to 1920x1200 and HDTV 1080p/60. It outputs DVI and analog RGB or component video at selectable output rates from 640x480 to 1920x1200 resolution and HDTV rates of up to 1080p/60.
- EDID Minder — The Extron EDID Minder automatically manages the Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) for all the DVI and VGA input sources. By default, VGA and DVI input EDIDs match the current output resolution of the scaler. Also available is a user assigned mode, which allows pre-stored EDID, based on a user selected resolution, to be manually assigned to the sources. By maintaining continuous EDID communication with all sources, EDID Minder ensures that all DVI and VGA sources power up properly and maintain their video outputs whether or not they are actively connected to the display device through the scaler outputs.
- Inputs — The DVS 510 has two composite video inputs on BNC connectors, two S-video inputs on 4-pin mini DIN connectors, two RGB/YUV inputs on 15-pin HD connectors, and two digital and two analog RGB/YUV inputs on DVI-I connectors. Stereo balanced and unbalanced audio for each input is provided on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connectors
- Outputs — The DVS 510 has a scaled DVI-D video output on a DVI-I connector, two scaled RGB/YUV outputs on 15-pin HD connectors, and two audio outputs (one fixed and one variable) providing balanced and unbalanced stereo audio on 3.5 mm 5-pole captive screw connectors. The DVS 510 SA also has an amplified output on a 5 mm, 4-pole captive screw connector.
- Simultaneous DVI and analog RGB or HD component video outputs — A DVI-D and two analog RGB/YUV outputs are provided for driving up to three display devices.
- Selectable output rates — Available output rates include computer video up to 1920x1200, HDTV rates up to 1080p/60, and 2048x1080.
• HDCP compliance — The DVS 510 fully supports HDCP-encrypted signals.
- Active HDCP verification — The DVS 510 provides real-time verification of HDCP status for each DVI input and output. This allows for quick signal and HDCP verification through RS-232/RS-422 or Ethernet.
- HDCP Visual Confirmation — The DVS 510 outputs a full-screen green signal and an on-screen message when an HDCP compliant source is routed to a non-HDCP compliant display, providing immediate visual confirmation that protected content cannot be viewed on the selected display.
- Image freeze control — A live image can be frozen through RS-232 or RS-422 serial control and through Ethernet control.
- Auto-Image setup — Enables the DVS 510 to automatically analyze the incoming video signal for each input and adjust sizing, centering, and filtering to optimize image quality. This can save time and effort in fine tuning displayed images.
- Auto memories — Enables the DVS 510 to store size, position, and picture settings based on the incoming signal. When the same signal is detected again, these image settings are recalled from memory.
- PIP (picture-in-picture) — Allows a video source to be displayed within a high resolution image, or vice versa. Audio switching can be set to follow either the main or PIP window.
- Glitch-free switching — Switching between sources occurs without distortions or glitches with selectable cut or fade-to-black transitions.
- Customizable front panel control buttons — The tricolored, backlit pushbuttons on the front panel can be custom-labeled.
- Power Save Mode — The DVS 510 can be set to mute video and sync 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.
- HDMI signals support — When used with optional Extron HDMI-DVI adapters, the DVI inputs and output on the DVS 510 are compatible with HDMI. The DVS 510 fully passes audio and auxiliary data as part of the HDMI signal, ensuring audio and video compatibility with downstream HDMI-equipped devices.
- Audio switching and output volume control — The DVS 510 features audio switching for 10 stereo balanced or unbalanced input sources, and provides master volume control and muting as well as bass and treble controls. Fixed and variable line level outputs are available, and each output can be balanced or unbalanced. Stereo input signals can be output as dual mono.
- Audio or video breakaway — Lets you break an audio signal away from its corresponding video signal and route it to the audio outputs, allowing the audio channels to be operated as a separate scaler.
- Integrated audio delay — Delays the audio output automatically to compensate for latency introduced by the video processing.
- Amplifier (DVS 510 SA only) — The DVS 510 SA has a stereo power amplifier with 25 watts rms per channel into 4 or 8 ohms. The Class D amplifier design includes CDRS™ – Class D Ripple Suppression, an Extron patented technology that provides a smooth, clean audio waveform and an improvement in signal fidelity over conventional Class D amplifier designs. CDRS eliminates the high frequency switching ripple characteristic of Class D amplifiers, a source of RF emissions that can interfere with sensitive AV equipment such as wireless microphones.
- The DVS 510 SA includes technology for the integrated amplifier that detects the onset of clipping by comparing input and output signals. Gain is reduced with a slow attack and fast release to eliminate clipping and protects the speakers from clipping distortion.
- Picture controls — Brightness, contrast, color, tint, detail, horizontal and vertical positioning, sizing, and zoom can be set. 16 user memory presets are available for each input to store all image settings.
- Automatic 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection — Advanced film mode processing techniques help maximize image detail and sharpness for NTSC, PAL, and HDTV 1080i sources that originated from film.
- Motion adaptive 1080i deinterlacing — High performance deinterlacing is provided for 1080i signals from HD sources, including cable or satellite set-top devices, delivering optimized image quality through advanced motion compensation.
- Aspect ratio control — The output can be designated to meet a specific aspect ratio requirement so that the image fills the screen, or is displayed with compensation for the native aspect ratio of the source.
- Quad standard video decoding — A digital, four-line adaptive comb filter decodes NTSC 3.58, NTSC 4.43, PAL, and SECAM for integration into systems worldwide.
- Test patterns — 12 test patterns are provided for calibration and setup, including a crop pattern, crosshatch, 16 bar grayscale, color bars, alternating pixels, ramp, white field, 4 x 4 crosshatch, and four aspect ratio patterns (1.33, 1.78, 1.85, and 2.35).
- Front panel security lockout (executive mode) — When enabled, locks out all front panel functions except for input selection (all functions remain available through RS-232, RS-422, or IR remote control).
- Optional IR remote control — The optional Extron IR 904 handheld remote control provides an additional method of input source switching, picture-in-picture, and direct access to picture adjustments.
- Ethernet monitoring and control — The DVS 510 can be controlled and proactively monitored over a LAN, WAN, or the Internet. Embedded web pages are included for such common functions as input switching, volume control, and system configuration.
- RS-232 and RS-422 control — The DVS 510 can be controlled and configured via Simple Instruction Set (SISTM) commands, a set of basic ASCII code commands that allow for quick and easy programming via RS-232 or RS-422.
- Windows-based configuration and control software — The Signal Processing Products Control Program (SPPCP) can be used to configure and control the DVS 510 via RS-232, RS-422, or Ethernet.
- Rack-mountable 2U, full rack width metal enclosure

Fixed audio output connector — Connect an audio device to this female 5-pole 3.5 mm captive screw connector for balanced or unbalanced fixed audio output. This output is not affected by tone control; however, it is affected by gain, attenuation, and audio delay. Wire the connector as shown in figure 6 on the previous page.
L Reset LED — This green LED lights steadily while power is on. While the RESET button is being pressed and held, it blinks the number of times to indicate the reset mode.
M RESET button — Using a small screwdriver, pointed stylus, or ballpoint pen, press this recessed button for manual resets. The unit has four modes of reset (see Resetting on page 41 for additional information).
N LAN connector — Plug an Ethernet cable into this RJ-45 jack to connect the unit to a computer network. Ethernet control allows you to configure and control the scaler from a remote location using SIS commands, the SPPCP software, or the embedded web pages. When connected to an Ethernet LAN or WAN, the DVS can be accessed and operated from a computer running a standard Internet browser.
Use a patch cable to connect the DVS to a switch, hub, or router. Use a straight-through cable to connect it directly to your computer. This connector contains two LEDs (see the illustration at right):
- Act LED — This amber LED blinks to indicate LAN signal activity.
- Link LED — This green LED lights steadily to indicate a LAN connection.

Figure 12. DVS 510 and DVS 510 SA Front Panel
The front panel features and controls shown in the illustration above are described starting on the next page.
A Input buttons — Press the desired input button to select an input and switch it to the current output. The visual effect accompanying the switch (switch effect) can be a cut or a fade, depending on the selection (see Advanced Configuration Menu on page 29). With front panel input selection, audio always follows (switches with) the front panel video selection.
Video and audio breakaway switching are available only via SIS commands (see Remote Configuration and Control, beginning on page 48).
- Signal types — The input buttons listed below select connected sources that support the following signal types:
• 1 and 2 — Composite
• 3 and 4 — S-video
- 5, 6, 7, and 9 — RGB (includes RGBHV, RGBS, RGBcvS, and RGsB) or component video (YUVp/HDTV or YUVi)
• 8 and 10 — DVI
- Input button lighting — When an input button is pressed, it lights amber unless the DVS is in picture-in-picture (PIP) mode (see Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode on page 18 for more information). If the audio is broken away (switched separately from the video), the button for the selected video input lights green and the button for the selected audio input lights red.
- Auto-Image — If an input button is held for 3 seconds, the Auto-Image feature is activated for that input, sizing and centering the selected image to fill the screen (see Auto Image submenu on page 30).
- Input buttons in PIP mode — If the picture-in-picture (PIP) feature is enabled, the input buttons select an input for either the background (primary) window or the PIP (secondary) window. The primary input button lights amber and the secondary (PIP) input button lights green. If the PIP feature is turned off, the input buttons select the main output only, and no input button lights green.
If the PIP feature is on when an input is selected, the audio associated with that input in the PIP window is muted. The audio does not become unmuted until either:
- It is swapped to the main window.
- An SIS Audio Follow command has been issued to configure the DVS to make the audio follow the PIP window.
(See Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode for more information.)
B PIP control buttons — When PIP is enabled, a secondary image from a second source appears on the screen in front of the main image, in a previously selected size and position. The default size of the PIP window is one-fourth screen and it is positioned in the lower-right corner of the display.
The following two buttons control the picture-in-picture (PIP) function:
- PIP On/Off button — Turns PIP mode on and off (toggles between showing and hiding the picture-in-picture on the display). This button lights when the DVS is in PIP mode.
- PIP Swap button — Toggles the primary (main or background) and secondary (PIP) pictures between the main image and the PIP window.
(See Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode for more information on the picture-in-picture function.)
Picture control buttons — Press these buttons to adjust window and image size, position, brightness, range of dark and light values (contrast), color, tint, detail, zoom (magnify or reduce), and pan. When one of these buttons is pressed, it lights amber.
NOTE: When PIP mode is enabled, all picture control adjustments affect only the PIP window.
(See Picture Controls on page 37 for details on these button functions.)
LCD screen — Displays messages, menu information, and your selections from menus or control buttons (see Menus on the LCD Screen on page 20 for more information).
E Menu navigation buttons — Press MENU to access the DVS menu system and step through the menus. From each menu, press NEXT to step through the submenus (see Menus on the LCD Screen for details).
F ADJUST knobs — Rotate these horizontal (◀) and vertical (▼) knobs to scroll through submenu and picture control options and make adjustments.
G VOLUME knob and indicator LEDs — Turn this knob to adjust the volume on the input that is currently selected. The three LEDs, labeled Min, Mid, and Max, light incrementally in bottom to top order to indicate the current volume level. The Max LED (top) is red, and the others are green (see Volume Control on page 40 for details on these controls).
H CONFIG port — This configuration port on a 2.5 mm TRS connector is an alternative to the RS232 port on the DVS rear panel. (For a description of the rear panel RS232 port, see Rear Panel on page 7).
NOTE: This port supports RS-232 communication only. Only the rear panel RS232 port supports both RS-232 and RS-422.
Both of the DVS serial ports can be used for system configuration and control. Instructions are received through these ports from the computer via SIS commands or the Signal Processing Products Control Program. Both serial ports can be active at the same time.
The default protocol for this configuration port is:
• 9600 baud • 8 data bits • 1 stop bit
- No parity
- No flow control
An optional 2.5 mm TRS configuration cable is available at www.extron.com and can be used to connect your computer to this port (see Connecting to the RS-232 CONFIG Port (Front Panel) on page 11 for the configuration and pin assignments for this cable).
Infrared sensor — This sensor receives infrared (IR) signals from the IR 904 remote control (see Using the Optional IR 904 Remote Control on page 44 for details).
Powering On
Apply power to the DVS by connecting the provided IEC power cord from the rear panel power connector to an AC power source. The scaler performs a self-test during which all the front panel buttons blink red, then green, then amber. At the same time, the initial two power-up screens are displayed on the LCD screen. At the completion of the self-test, all button lights turn off except for the previously selected Input button (Input 1 by default) and the MENU and NEXT buttons, all of which continue to be lit amber. If picture-in-picture (PIP) mode was enabled previously, the input button for the PIP source and the PIP On/Off button light green. The LCD panel displays the default cycle.
If an error occurs during the self-test, the DVS locks up and does not operate. If this occurs, call the Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline (see the rear cover for contact information in your area).
When power is first applied to the DVS, the LCD panel displays Initializing Please Wait..., then Extron, DVS 510 Vn.nn, where n.nn is the current firmware version. If the DVS self-test completes successfully, the default cycle begins, in which the LCD panel display alternates between the current output resolution and refresh rates, and the currently selected input number, signal type, and horizontal and vertical frequencies. These two screens continue to cycle on the screen when the menu system is not in use.
The flow diagram below shows the order in which the screens appear at power-up and in the default cycle.

Figure 13. Power-up and Default Cycle
NOTE: Audio and video mute settings are not retained when power is cycled to the DVS.
Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode
The picture-in-picture (PIP) feature lets the DVS display two image sources on the screen simultaneously.
One of these image sources must be low-resolution (composite, S-video, YUVi, or RGBcvS) video, while the other must be high resolution (YUVp/HDTV, RGB, or DVI) video.
- High resolution — Inputs 5 through 7 and 9 if they are configured as RGB (RGBHV, RGBS or RGsB) or high-resolution component video YUVp/HDTV; inputs 8 and 10 (DVI).
- Low resolution — Inputs 1 through 4, and 5 through 9 when they are configured as component video YUVi or RGBcvS
The PIP function toggles between the selected input in each resolution group. The PIP function cannot toggle between two inputs in the same resolution group.
The following table shows the resolution of each input:
| Input | High Resolution Low | Resolution |
| 1 | Composite | |
| 2 | Composite | |
| 3 | S-video | |
| 4 | S-video | |
| 5 | RGB, YUVp/HDTV YUVi, | RGBcvS |
| 6 | RGB, YUVp/HDTV YUVi, | RGBcvS |
| 7 | RGB, YUVp/HDTV YUVi, | RGBcvS |
| 8 | DVI (all formats) | |
| 9 | RGB, YUVp/HDTV YUVi, | RGBcvS |
| 10 | DVI (all formats) |
By default, the PIP image is one-fourth the size of the main window and is positioned in the lower-right corner of the display.
NOTE: The size of the PIP window can be set in the menu system (see Enabling PIP Mode on the next page). The position of the PIP window is set with the centering adjustment (see Picture Controls on page 37 for details).
When PIP mode is active:
- The button for the main window input lights amber. The PIP input button lights green.
- All picture controls configure only the image in the PIP window. The main window settings cannot be modified while the PIP window is active. The PIP size and position can be adjusted with the same front panel controls or SIS commands used to adjust the main image.
- The parameters of the PIP window are adjustable from the front panel menus or by SIS commands only.
- Any change in configuration (except sizing or positioning) of the PIP window is saved to that input even after the PIP mode is no longer active.
- The PIP window input is shown in the default cycle as the current input.
- If the PIP window source is not active, the PIP mode exits until an active signal is detected. When the main window source is removed, a black background is displayed.
• Audio and video breakaway are not allowed.
Enabling PIP Mode
To enable picture-in-picture mode:
- Select an input for the main window. The selected input button lights amber.
- Configure the input for the main window as desired (see Input Configuration Menu on page 23 and Picture Controls on page 37).
- Press the PIP ON/OFF button to activate the PIP mode.
- The input button for the PIP window lights green.
NOTE: The first time the DVS is placed in PIP mode, by default input 1 is selected if the main input is high resolution, and input 5 is selected if the main input is low resolution. If PIP mode has been enabled previously, the input in the correct resolution category that was the PIP input most recently is selected.
- The PIP window appears on the screen in its previously displayed size and position. (On first activation, the PIP window appears in the default size and position.)
Configure the PIP window as desired, using the same methods you used to configure the main window in step 2.
You can also enable PIP via SIS commands (see the Picture-in-picture (PIP) commands on page 62 in the Command and Response Table for DVS 510 SIS Commands), the Windows-based control software (see the SPPCP help file), the web pages (see PIP Setup Page on page 106), or using the IR remote control (see Using the Optional IR 904 Remote Control on page 44).
Changing the PIP Input
To change the input for the PIP window or the main window, determine if the corresponding input is low- or high-resolution.
If your main window image is from a low-resolution source, switch to another low-resolution input from the front panel.
NOTE: The front panel buttons do not permit you to select two low-resolution or two high-resolution inputs. For example, if you have selected input 1 (composite) for the main window (the button is lit amber) and then you press the button for input 2 (also composite), input 2 is selected for the main window (lights amber) and input 1 is deselected.
Using the PIP Swap Feature
Use the swap feature to switch the active main window input with the current PIP input. For example, if the main window is input 5 (RGB scaled) and the PIP window is input 1 (composite), applying the swap command results in input 1 becoming the main window and input 5 the PIP window.
To swap the main window input with the PIP input, press the PIP SWAP button. The buttons switch colors from amber to green and vice versa.
You can set audio to follow the main (default) window or the PIP window. Audio breakaway is not possible while PIP mode is on. Audio must follow either the main window or the PIP window.
Menus on the LCD Screen
The DVS 510 menus that are displayed on the LCD screen enable you to configure and operate the scaler. The menu navigation buttons (MENU and NEXT) are located to the right of the LCD screen. Press these buttons to cycle through the available menus and submenus, and use the horizontal and vertical ADJUST knobs to select options.
This section describes the options on these menus and their submenus, including any procedures that are initiated from them.
Menu System Overview
The menu system consists of six menus, some of which have submenus that enable you to make desired adjustments (see the menu flow diagram on the next page).
Using the menus
- To access the menu system, press the MENU button. The first menu name (User Presets) is displayed on the LCD screen.
- Select other menus by repeatedly pressing the MENU button until the desired menu name is displayed.
- When the desired menu appears on the LCD screen, press the NEXT button repeatedly to cycle through the submenus for the selected menu.
- When the desired submenu is displayed, rotate the horizontal (◀▶) or vertical (◀) ADJUST knob clockwise or counterclockwise to cycle through the submenu options. If you want to return to a menu from within one of its submenus, press MENU.
- When the desired option is displayed, do one of the following to select it:
- Press NEXT to display another submenu.
- Press MENU repeatedly until the Exit MENU? Press NEXT screen appears, then press NEXT to return to the default cycle.
- Do nothing more, and wait until the LCD screen returns to the default cycle (approximately 30 seconds).
NOTE: The menus time out and the default cycle is displayed after 30 seconds of inactivity. However, any selections you made with the ADJUST knobs are saved and remain in effect until you change them or reset the unit to factory defaults (see Resetting on page 41).

Figure 14. Main Menu
The following sections describe the submenu options for each of the menus.
User Presets Menu
User presets save the current set of image parameters for the selected input. Each input has 16 available user memory presets to which you can save settings or recall using this menu, an SIS command (see the User Presets commands on page 64) or the Presets Web page (see Memory/Input Presets Page on page 104).
The following settings are saved in a user preset:
• Color • Horizontal position
- Tint • Vertical position
- Contrast • Horizontal size
- Brightness • Vertical size
- DETAIL - Pan
- Zoom
Saved user presets can be recalled to be applied to the current input.
The following flowchart provides an overview of the User Preset submenus and the options for each setting.

Figure 15. User Presets Menu
Saving or recalling a user preset
- Press the MENU button until User Presets is displayed in the LCD window.
- Press the NEXT button until the desired submenu name is displayed: Recall Preset or Save Preset.
- Rotate either ADJUST knob until the LCD screen displays the number of the preset to which you want to save the current settings, or that you want to recall.
- Press NEXT to save or recall the preset. The User Presets menu is displayed.
- To exit the user presets function without saving a preset, press MENU.
NOTES:
- The presets are saved in nonvolatile memory, therefore, powering down the DVS does not lose the presets.
- User presets can be saved at one input resolution and rate and recalled to a different one.
Example: If the current output resolution is 1024x768 and a 720p input is applied, you can size and center a "letterbox" image for a 16:9 input resolution and save it to a user preset. Subsequently, if a 1080p resolution is applied to the unit, the letterbox preset that was saved at 720p can be recalled with the new 1080p input resolution.
Input Configuration Menu
The Input Configuration menu allows you to select a video signal type for the configurable inputs: 5, 6, 7, and 9. (Inputs 1 and 2 are composite video only, inputs 3 and 4 are S-video only, and inputs 8 and 10 are DVI only.) The table below summarizes the available signal types for each input.
| Input 1 Input | ut 2 Input 3 | Input 4 Input | put 5 Input | ut 6 Input | 7 Input 8 | Input 9 Input | ut 10 | ||
| Composite | Composite S | video S | video RGB | * RGB* RGB | B* DVI RGB | B* DVI | YUVI | ||

| RGBcvS | RGBcvS | RGBcvS | RGBcvS | ||||||
| YUVi YUV | YUV |
*Default
You can also enable and disable film detection, select the horizontal and vertical start positions, pixel sampling phase, total pixels, active pixels, active lines, and select an EDID (extended display identification data) for an input. Rotate the horizontal (◀▶) or the vertical (◀) ADJUST knob to adjust the settings.

Figure 19. Advanced Configuration Menu
Auto Image submenu
Auto-Image is enabled per input. When an input is connected and Auto-Image is enabled, the DVS performs an image adjustment in which it measures where the active area starts and stops, then adjusts input sampling accordingly, so that the image fills the window. The scaler measures the sync frequencies of the incoming video source and sets the active image area, total image area, and the sampling frequency according to a table stored on the DVS. If an unknown input is connected to the DVS, the scaler measures and estimates the resolution of the incoming video. If the estimate proves inaccurate, the Auto-Image function makes measurements to more accurately set up the input sampling.
Auto-image affects the following settings:
• Active pixels • Horizontal position
• Active lines • Vertical position
• Horizontal start • Horizontal size
- Vertical start
- Vertical size
- Pixel phase
All other settings are unchanged when an Auto-Image is performed.
If the aspect ratio is set to Fill, the horizontal and vertical position is set to 0,0, and the horizontal and vertical size is set to match the current output rate. If the aspect ratio is set to Follow, the horizontal and vertical position is set to maintain the native aspect ratio of the input with respect to the current output resolution.
If auto memories are enabled, the DVS first checks for an existing memory entry for the connected input (see "Auto Memories submenu").
Auto-Image is useful in applications in which a variety of input sources are likely to be encountered, such as on a lectern or podium where guest laptops might be plugged in.
To enable or disable Auto-Image for an input:
-
From the Advanced Configuration menu, press NEXT until the Auto Image submenu is displayed.
-
Rotate the horizontal ADJUST knob (◀) to select the input to be auto-imaged.
-
Rotate the vertical ADJUST knob (▲) to select On or Off for Auto-Image.
The default input selection is input 1. The default Auto-Image status is Off.
Auto Memories submenu
When auto memories is activated, the DVS stores size, position, and picture settings based on the incoming signal from the connected input. When the same input signal is detected again, these image settings are recalled from memory.
To enable or disable auto memories:
- Press NEXT until the Auto Memories submenu is displayed.
- Rotate either ADJUST knob to the right to select On or to the left to select Off.
The default for auto memories is On. It is recommended that auto memories not be disabled unless you are using an input preset (selectable via SIS commands, the SPPCP, and the Web pages) or if you want each input to be treated as a new input without using saved settings.
NOTE: When an Auto-Image is performed, auto memory is checked first and if an entry is found, its settings are used. If you do not want to use the auto memories settings, disable auto memories before allowing Auto-Image to be performed (see the table below for the results of combinations of Auto-Image and auto memories settings.)
| Auto Memories and Auto-Image Interaction | ||
| Auto memories | Auto-Image Action | |
| On On | New signals or rates that have not been previously detected by the DVS 510 are initially set up using default parameters, then Auto-Image is applied and the values are stored. The next time that signal is detected, the values stored in the auto memory location are applied. | |
| On Off | (Default) New signals or rates that have not been previously detected by the DVS 510 are set up using default parameters. If manual input or picture settings are made to the input, an auto memory location is created and recalled each successive time the input is detected. | |
| Off On | Each change in input sync triggers an automatic Auto-Image. When auto memory is disabled, each change in sync is treated as a new signal and an automatic Auto-Image is triggered. Any manual changes made to the image and picture controls are lost each time a new rate is detected. | |
| Off Off | Each change in input sync causes default values to be applied to the rate. Any manual changes made to the image and picture controls are lost when a new rate is applied. | |
Aspect Ratio submenu
The aspect ratio control allows you to select between Fill (the input signal at each rate fills the entire output raster), or Follow (the input signal at each rate is displayed with its native aspect ratio [default setting]).
- In fill mode, if you want an aspect ratio adjustment for a single input rate, you can set up the correct size and centering by using one of the Aspect Ratio test patterns as a template (see Test Pattern submenu on the next page). If auto memories is enabled, this setting is saved and recalled the next time the signal is detected.
- In follow mode, each input rate is displayed with its native aspect ratio (4:3, 5:4, 16:9, or 16:10). You can view the correct letterbox or pillar box settings by pressing the SIZE or the POSITION button. If a single input is to fill the entire raster in follow mode, you can manually set the position (center) to 0, 0 and the size to match the current output rate (see Picture Controls on page 37).
To select the aspect ratio mode:
- From the Configuration menu, press NEXT until the Aspect Ratio submenu is displayed.
- Rotate either ADJUST knob to select the desired mode.
RGB Delay submenu
The RGB delay feature applies a brief delay before displaying a new input on a screen, allowing the display device to adjust to the new sync timing. This delay shows the viewers a blank screen, masking any glitch during switching. The RGB Delay options are to 5 seconds in 0.1-second increments.
To set the RGB delay time:
- From the Advanced Configuration menu, press NEXT until the RGB Delay submenu is displayed.
- Rotate either ADJUST knob to select the amount of delay.
Switch Effect submenu
Two effects are available to be displayed on the output screen when the input is switched:
- Cut — The current input is immediately replaced with the image from the new input.
- Fade — The current input fades to black and the new input fades in (default).
To select a switch effect:
- From the Advanced Configuration menu, press NEXT until the Switch Effect submenu is displayed.
- Rotate either ADJUST knob to the right to select Fade or to the left to select Cut.
Test Pattern submenu
The following test pattern selections are available via this submenu to help you adjust the display device for color, convergence, focus, resolution, contrast, grayscale, and aspect ratio (see figure 20 on the next page):
- Off (default) • White Field
- Color Bars
- Crop
- Crosshatch
- 1.33 Aspect
• 4x4 Crosshatch • 1.78 Aspect - Grayscale
- 1.85 Aspect
- Ramp • 2.35 Aspect
• Alternating Pixels • Blue Mode
NOTE:
- Alt Pixels is used to calibrate display devices input sampling to the DVS output. Use this pattern to adjust the clocking and phasing at the display until no more vertical bands are visible.
- Crop is used to center the DVS output on the display device. Adjust the horizontal and vertical position on the display until all four crop lines are visible.
- Color Bars is used to calibrate color settings on the display and to confirm proper system wiring.
- Blue Mode causes only sync and blue video signals to pass to the display. This can assist you in setting up the color and tint levels of the video input.

This menu (see figure 22 on the next page) lets you make changes to the serial port configuration, IP addresses, and the DHCP mode. Although the Edit Comm Settings menu has almost all the same screens as the View Comm Settings menu, it is accessed differently.
NOTE: You can access the Edit Comm Settings menu from any other menu or from the default cycle.
To display the Edit Comm Settings menu:
- Press and hold the NEXT button.
- While holding the NEXT button, press the DETAIL and COLOR/TINT buttons simultaneously.
- Hold all three buttons until the Edit Comm Settings screen is displayed (approximately 2 seconds).
If no activity occurs within 30 seconds, the DVS saves all settings and returns to the default cycle.
Figure 22 shows the Edit Comm Settings screens and the adjustments that are available from them.

Figure 22. Edit Comm Settings Menu
Adjustments can be made via the following Edit Comm Settings screens:
Serial Configuration submenu
- Press NEXT until the Serial Configuration screen is displayed.
- Rotate the horizontal ADJUST knob (◀) to select the baud rate. The available selections are 9600 (the default), 19200, 38400, and 115200.
Rotate the vertical ADJUST knob (▲) to select RS232 or RS422.
Set DHCP Mode submenu
When Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) mode is enabled, the scaler ignores any entered IP address and obtains its IP address from a DHCP server (if the network is DHCP capable).
On the Set DHCP Mode screen, rotate either ADJUST knob to the right to turn DHCP on or to the left to turn DHCP off. Contact your system administrator for the setting to select.
Set IP Address submenu
Valid IP addresses consist of four one-, two-, or three-digit numeric sub-fields (called "octets") that are separated by periods. Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255 (leading zeros are inserted by the DVS). The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value via the Set IP Address screen.
To change the unit IP address:
- Press NEXT repeatedly until the Set IP Address screen is displayed.
- Rotate the horizontal ADJUST knob ( ) to select an octet. (The selected octet blinks.)
- Rotate the vertical ADJUST knob (◀) to increase or decrease the blinking number.
Set Subnet Mask submenu
The subnet mask is used to determine whether the DVS is on the same subnet as the mail server when you are using a subnet (see Subnetting, a Primer on page 118). The subnet mask address has the same validity rules as the IP address. The default subnet mask is 255.255.000.000.
To change the subnet mask:
- Press NEXT repeatedly until the Set Subnet Mask screen is displayed.
- Rotate the horizontal ADJUST knob ( ) to change the blinking octet selection.
- Rotate the vertical ADJUST knob (◀) to increase or decrease the blinking number.
Set Gateway Addr submenu
The gateway address identifies the gateway to the mail server that will be used if the scaler and the mail server are not on the same subnet. The default gateway address is 000.000.000.000.
To change the gateway address:
- Press NEXT until the Set Gateway Addr screen is displayed.
- Rotate the horizontal ADJUST knob ( ) to change the blinking octet selection.
- Rotate the vertical ADJUST knob (◀) to increase or decrease the blinking number.
NOTE: The Edit Comm Settings menu has no MAC address screen, because the MAC address cannot be changed.
Exiting the Menu System
To exit the menu system, press the MENU button repeatedly until the Exit MENU? Press NEXT screen appears. Press the NEXT button to return to the default cycle.
Alternatively, wait until the menu system times out and the default cycle resumes (approximately 30 seconds).
Picture Controls
The DVS has six picture control buttons located on the front panel to the right of the PIP buttons. You can use these buttons to adjust size, position, brightness and contrast, color and tint, detail, magnification (zoom), and select a portion of the image on which to focus the view (pan). (See the Picture Controls Summary table on the next page for an explanation of these button functions.)
NOTE: When PIP mode is active, all these picture controls apply to the PIP window. To configure the main window, press the PIP On/Off button to exit PIP mode.
Adjusting the Picture Controls
To adjust the picture controls for the currently selected input:
- Press the button for the input that you want to adjust. If you want to adjust the PIP window, press the PIP On/Off button to enter PIP mode, then press the button for the PIP input.
- Press the desired picture control button: Size, Bright/Cont (brightness and contrast), DETAIL (sharpness), Position (centering), Color/Tint (color quality), or Zoom/Pan (magnification or horizontal and vertical panning).
- Rotate the horizontal (◀) and vertical (▲) ADJUST knobs to select a level from the available range.
- Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each image adjustment you want to make for the selected input.
NOTE: The LCD screen displays N/A in place of a value if that adjustment does not apply to the video format of the input.
Picture Controls Summary
The following table explains the functions of the Picture Controls buttons and how to make adjustments. (In the Display column, n is a single digit, 0 through 9.)

Input Presets
The DVS 510 Series has 128 input preset slots, which can save signal type, input configuration settings, and picture control settings for any of the inputs. These presets can be saved and recalled using the Windows-based control software (see the Signal Processing Products Control Program help file), SIS commands (see the Input Presets commands on page 65) or the DVS 510 Series web pages (see Memory/Input Presets Page on page 104).
The following settings are contained in the input presets:
- Input Type
- Preset Name*
- Film Mode Detect
- Zoom
• Pan
• Color
Tint
- Contrast
- Brightness
- Detail Filter
- Horizontal Start
- Vertical Start
- Pixel Phase
- Total Pixels
• Horizontal Position
- Vertical Position
- Horizontal size
- Vertical size
*Can be set by SIS command only.
The 128 input presets are global, containing all of the settings for an input when the DVS is used with a matrix switcher. This allows a matrix switcher with multiple types of video inputs to be connected to the DVS 510 to expand the number of input video sources.
Each input should be switched into the DVS, configured, then saved as a preset for recall by a control system when that input is sent from the matrix switcher to any of the 10 DVS inputs.
- If an input preset is recalled to an input that does not support the input type saved in the preset, an SIS error code is returned.
- If the signal frequencies and total line count do not match the frequencies saved in the preset, the DVS uses the auto memories settings instead of recalling the preset. If no auto memory exists for the frequency, the DVS references its lookup table (a generic list of default sampling parameters embedded in the DVS).
- If the output rate does not match the output rate that was active when the preset was saved, all settings in the input preset are recalled except size and position.
Audio Functions
The DVS 510 Series provides three audio outputs: fixed, variable, and amplified (DVS 510 SA only). The following table shows the functions available on these audio outputs.
| Function | Fixed Output Variable Output Amplified Output | ||
| Bass | X | X | |
| Treble | X | X | |
| Volume Level | X | X | |
| Gain or Attenuation | X | X | X |
| Limiter | X | ||
| Audio Delay | X | X | X |
(See Audio Configuration Menu on page 28 for information on adjustments to the functions listed in the table above.)
Volume Control
Rotating the VOLUME knob on the front panel increases and decreases the audio volume in up to 100 steps.
NOTE: This knob is speed sensitive, that is, you can turn the knob quickly to make coarse adjustments or slowly to make fine adjustments.
The table below shows some examples of the amount of rotation needed to achieve volume levels.
| Volume Knob Rotations Volume Level Steps (0–100) | |
| 12 | 25 |
| 1 | 50 |
| 112 75 | |
| 2 100 | |
When this knob is turned, the LCD window displays a bar graph representation of the volume level for 0.5 seconds before returning to the previous menu. In addition, the step number is displayed at the top of the LCD screen.
Figure 23. Example of the LCD Screen during Volume Adjustment
Volume adjustment can be made from the front panel at any time during scaler operation.
Volume LEDs
To the right of the VOLUME knob are three LEDs that indicate the volume level (see figure 24 on the next page):
- Max (red) — Lights steadily when the volume level is between 80% and 99%. When the volume is at 100% (maximum), this LED flashes.
- Mid (green) — Lights steadily when the volume level is above 49%.
- Min (green) — Lights steadily when the volume level is above 1%. When the volume is at 0 (minimum), this LED blinks. It also blinks when the audio is muted by SIS command (see the Audio Mute commands on page 64) or by the IR remote control (see Using the Optional IR 904 Remote Control on page 44).
NOTES:
- When the volume is muted, all the Volume LEDs go dark except Min, which blinks.
- When an incremental Volume LED lights, the LEDs below it remain lit. For example, when the Max LED lights, the Mid and Min LEDs are also lit.
MIN LED flashes when volume level is at 0% or audio muted.
MIN LED on solid when volume level is at 1% or higher.
MID LED on solid when volume level is at 50% or higher.
MAX LED on solid when volume level is at 80% or higher.
MAX LED flashes when volume level is at 100% (maximum).
Figure 24. Volume Indicator LEDs on the Front Panel
Audio or Video Breakaway
To switch the audio or the video separately away from the current input to another input (audio or video breakaway), enter an audio or a video input selection SIS command (see the Input Selection commands on page 57). When the audio is switched from one input to another (audio breakaway), the audio switch effect is always a fade, regardless of the selected video effect. During audio or video breakaway, the audio input button lights red and the video button lights green. Audio or video breakaway is not available while the DVS is in PIP mode.
Resetting
The rear panel has a recessed RESET button that initiates various levels of resets. To select different reset levels, use a pointed stylus or small Philips screwdriver to press and hold the button while the DVS is running or press and hold the button while applying power to the scaler.
NOTE: You can also reset the unit to factory defaults using SIS commands (see the Resets commands on page 68) or from the front panel (see the Reset to Factory screen on page 33).
ATTENTION:
- The reset modes listed in the table on the next page close all open IP and Telnet connections and all sockets.
• Each mode is a separate function, not a continuation from mode 1 to mode 5.
• There is no reset mode 2 for the DVS 510 Series.
| DVS 510 Series Reset Mode Summary | ||||
| Mode | Activation Result Purpose and Notes | |||
| Factory Firmware | 1 | Hold in the recessed RESETbutton while applying power to the unit. | The DVS reverts to the factory default firmware for a single power cycle. Event scripting does not start if the unit is powered on in this mode. All user files and settings (such as drivers, adjustments, and IP settings) are maintained. | Use mode 1 to revert to the factory default version for a single power cycle if incompatibility issues arise with user-loaded firmware. |
| Run and Stop Events | 3 | Hold in the RESETbutton for about 3 seconds until the Power LED blinks once, then release and press RESETmomentarily (less than 1 second) within 1 second*. | Mode 3 turns events on or off. If the events are currently stopped after the momentary press, the power LED flashes twice, indicating the starting of events.If the events are currently running after the momentary press, the Power LED flashes three times indicating the stopping of events. | Mode 3 is useful for troubleshooting. |
| Reset All IP Settings | 4 | Hold in the RESETbutton for about 6 seconds until the Power LED blinks twice (once at 3 seconds, and again at 6 seconds). Then, release and press RESETmomentarily (for less than 1 second) within 1 second*. | Mode 4 does the following:Enables ARP capability.Sets the IP address back to factory default (192.168.254.254).Sets the subnet back to the factory default.Sets the default gateway address to the factory default.Sets port mapping back to factory default.Turns DHCP off.Turns events off. | Mode 4 enables you to set IP address information using ARP and the MAC address. |
| Reset to Factory Defaults | 5 | Hold in the RESETbutton for about 9 seconds until the Power LED blinks three times (once at 3 seconds, again at 6 seconds, again at 9 seconds). Then, release and press RESETmomentarily (for less than 1 second) within 1 second*. | Mode 5 performs a complete reset to factory defaults (except the firmware).Does everything mode 4 does.Clears port configurations.Resets all IP options.Clears all user settings.Clears all files from the unit. | Mode 5 is useful if you want to start over with configuration and uploading, and also to replace events. |
*For modes 3, 4, and 5, nothing happens if the momentary press does not occur within 1 second.
Front Panel Lockout (Executive Mode)
To prevent accidental changes to settings, you can lock the DVS 510 front panel controls by placing the scaler in lock (executive) mode 1 or 2. While the DVS is in lock mode, RS-232, RS-422, and Ethernet communication, as well as IR remote control, remain available.
- Lock mode 1 locks all front panel functions. This mode can be enabled or disabled only by SIS commands (see the Front Panel Security Lockout (Executive Mode) commands on page 66 in the Command and Response Table for DVS 510 SIS Commands).
- Lock mode 2 locks all front panel functions except input selection, PIP, volume control, and Auto-Image. To enable lock mode 2, press and hold the POSITION and SIZE buttons simultaneously until Executive Mode 2 Enabled appears in the LCD window (approximately 2 seconds).
To exit lock mode 2, press and hold the POSITION and SIZE buttons again until Executive Mode Disabled appears in the LCD window (approximately 2 seconds).
NOTE: The IR receiver can be locked (default state) and unlocked via SIS commands (see the IR Receiver commands on page 67 in the Command and Response Table for DVS 510 SIS Commands).
Additional Features
The following features are available via one or more of the following: SIS commands, the Signal Processing Products Control Program, the DVS 510 HTML pages, or IR remote control. They cannot be accessed via the front panel.
Freeze
This function freezes the current image on the display. You can freeze and unfreeze the image using the Windows-based control software (see the SPPCP help file), SIS commands via an RS-232 or RS-422 connection (see the Freeze commands on page 65) or the Web pages (see User Control Page on page 101).
If you switch inputs while the image is frozen, the freeze mode is cancelled and the image from the new input is displayed.
Power Save Modes
When there is no active video for the current input, you can disable the output sync so that a display can go into a lower power or standby state. This can increase the life of the display panel or projector lamp. You can select the power save mode using SIS commands (see the Power Save/Screen Saver commands on page 62) or the Signal Processing Products Control Program (see the SPPCP help file). The power save options are:
- Mute video to black, retaining output sync.
- Display a blue screen.
- Display a blue screen for 1 minute, then mute all sync outputs.
Output Sync Mute
This function mutes all video and sync outputs, placing the display device in a power save mode. Output sync mute is available only via SIS commands (see the Video Mute commands on page 59).
NOTE: Individual outputs cannot be muted by this command. With the output sync mute enabled, all analog and digital outputs are simultaneously disabled.
Overscan Mode
This function allows you to set a default overscan of 0%, 2.5%, or 5% to apply to SMPTE input rates (NTSC, PAL, 480p through 1080p). When the overscan mode is not set to 0% and an auto-image is performed on a low-resolution or DVI input, the DVS uses the default values for input sizing and centering instead of performing a complete auto-image.
For YUV Auto and RGB inputs, pixel phase is included in the auto-image, regardless of the current overscan setting.
The overscan mode setting is adjusted per input type (composite, S-video, RGBcvS, YUV Auto, RGB, and DVI) using SIS commands (see the Overscan Mode commands on page 66).
Using the Optional IR 904 Remote Control
The optional hand-held IR 904 Remote Control provides a convenient means of remotely performing many of the functions that are also available through the front panel, SIS commands, the Windows-based control software, or the embedded web pages. The DVS responds to commands from remote control as if the corresponding button were pressed on the front panel or the corresponding SIS command or software selection were entered.
The IR receiver port on the front panel is located to the left of the CONFIG port. It receives signals from the remote control if they are sent from within a 40-degree arc to the right or left of direct line of sight between the remote control and the scaler IR sensor, and from no more than 30 feet (9 meters) away.
Figure 25. Area for Remote Signal Reception
Locking IR Remote Control Access
The DVS can be set to lock out users from using the IR 904 Remote Control to control the scaler. Remote access can be enabled and disabled via SIS commands (see the IR Receiver commands on page 67). When remote access is locked, all other controls remain available (SIS commands, Web pages, control software, and front panel).
NOTES:
- By default, the IR receiver is disabled.
- The DVS must be connected to power before you operate the remote control. Setup operations cannot be performed from the remote control.
Installing Batteries in the IR 904 Remote Control
Install two AAA batteries in the IR 904 Remote Control as shown below.

Remote Configuration and Control
The DVS 510 can be remotely controlled via a host computer or other device (such as a control system) attached to the rear panel RS232 connector, the front panel RS-232 CONFIG port, or the LAN port. You can configure and control the DVS by the Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS) of commands, by using the Extron Windows-based Signal Processing Products Control Program (SPPCP), or by the internal HTML web pages (see HTML Configuration and Control, beginning on page 87).
This section describes the serial and Ethernet connections through which the SIS commands can be issued, and lists the commands that are available for configuring and controlling the DVS 510 Series. It also provides instructions on obtaining and opening the control program. Topics include:
- Serial Ports
- Ethernet Port
• Using SIS Commands
• Using the Signal Processing Products Control Program (SPPCP)
Serial Ports
The DVS supports RS-232 and RS-422 serial communication protocols and can operate at 9600, 19200, 38400, or 115200 baud rates. (See Edit Comm Settings Menu on page 34 to configure this port using the front panel menus.)
The default protocol for the serial ports is 9600 baud, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control. (See Ⓞ RS-232 connector or Connecting to the RS-232 CONFIG Port (Front Panel) on page 11 for the pin assignments for these two ports.)
Ethernet Port
The RJ-45 connector on the rear panel can be connected to an Ethernet LAN or WAN to enable control of the DVS via SIS commands or the Signal Processing Products Control Program. Communication between the scaler and the controlling device can be via a utility such as Extron DataViewer or HyperTerminal, or via Telnet (a TCP socket using port 23). The Telnet port number can be changed, if necessary, via SIS. (For information on connecting via Telnet, see IP Addressing on page 114.)
Ethernet Cable
The Ethernet cable must be properly terminated for your application as either a straight-through cable or a crossover cable. (For pin assignments for these cables, see N LAN connector on page 10.)
IP Address
To access the DVS 510 or DVS 510 SA via the Ethernet port, obtain the IP address of the scaler from your network administrator. If the IP address has been changed to an address comprised of words and characters, you can determine the actual numeric IP address using the ping (ICMP) utility (see IP Addressing on page 114 for more details). If the IP address has not been changed, the factory-specified default is 192.168.254.254.
Establishing an Ethernet Connection Using TCP
Establish a network connection to a DVS as follows:
- Open a TCP connection to port 23, using the IP address of the scaler.
The scaler responds with a copyright message that includes the date, the name of the product, firmware version, part number, and the current date and time (see Scaler-initiated Messages on the next page).
NOTE: If the scaler is not password-protected, the device is ready to accept SIS commands immediately after it sends the copyright message.
If the scaler is password-protected, a password prompt appears below the copyright message.
- If the scaler is password protected, enter the appropriate administrator or user password.
- If the password is accepted, the scaler responds with Login User or Login Administrator.
- If the password is not accepted, the Password prompt reappears.
Connection Timeouts
The Ethernet link times out after a designated period of no communications. By default, this timeout value is set to 5 minutes, but the value can be changed (see the Set current connection port timeout command on page 74).
NOTE: Extron recommends leaving the default timeout at 5 minutes and periodically issuing the Query (Q) command to keep the connection active. If there are long idle periods, Extron recommends disconnecting and reopening the connection when another command must be sent.
Using SIS Commands
SIS commands consist of one or more characters per command field. They do not require any special characters to begin or end the command character sequence. When the DVS determines that a command is valid, it executes the command and sends a response to the host device. Each scaler response to an SIS command ends with a carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF = ), which signals the end of the response character string. A string is one or more characters.
Scaler-initiated Messages
When a local event such as a front panel input selection or adjustment takes place, the DVS responds by sending a message to the host. No response is required from the host. Some scaler-initiated messages are listed here.
(c) Copyright 20nn, Extron Electronics, DVS 510, Vn.nn., 60-835-0n
Www, DD Mmm YYYY hh:mm:ss
The DVS sends the copyright message upon connecting to the computer via IP, or when powering up while connected. Vn.nn is the firmware version number.
• ← Password:
The ← Password: prompt requires a password (administrator level or user level) followed by a carriage return. The prompt is repeated if the correct password is not entered.
If the correct password is entered, the unit responds with:
←*****
←Login Administrator←
or
←*****
←Login User←
depending on the password that was entered. If the passwords are the same for both the administrator and the user, the unit defaults to administrator privileges.
- In [x1] All Reconfig
The DVS sends this response when an input is switched or when a new signal is detected. 1 is the input number.
Error Responses
When the DVS receives a valid command, it executes the command and sends a response to the host device. If the unit is unable to execute the command because the command contains invalid parameters, it returns an error response to the host. The responses include:
Error numbers
• E∅1 — Invalid input number
• E10 — Invalid command
• E11 — Invalid preset number
• E12 — Invalid port number
• E13 — Invalid parameter
• E14 — Not valid for this configuration
• E17 — Invalid command for signal type
E22 — Busy
• E24 — Privilege violation
• E25 — Device not present
• E27 — Invalid event number
• E28 — Bad filename or file not found
• E26 — Maximum number of connections exceeded
Error response references
^14 = Commands that give an E14 (invalid command for this configuration) error if sent to a product whose current configuration does not support the command
^24 = Commands that give an E24 (privilege violation) error if you are not logged on at administrator level
^27 = Commands that may give an E27 (invalid event number) error
^28 = Commands that may give an E28 (file not found) error
Using the Command and Response Tables
These tables contain Telnet (port 23), serial, or web browser (port 80) commands. There are some minor differences between issuing these commands via Telnet and via URL encoding using a web browser. All commands work with either connection method but, due to some limitations of the web browser, the encapsulation characters are modified to make sure that the browser properly handles them.
NOTE: For web browsers, all non-alphanumeric characters must be represented as their hexadecimal equivalent. An example is the %xx command, where xx is the two-character representation of the hex byte that needs to be sent. (For example, a comma would be shown as %2C.)
Telnet: Web Browser:
Escape (Hex 1B) W (must not be encoded)
Carriage Return (Hex ∅D) Pipe Character ( I ) (must not be encoded)
When SIS commands are used through a web browser, the URL reference is used below to shorten the examples. In practice, this would be the full URL of the control interface and Web page reference, including all path information, for example, http://192.168.254.254/index.html
To send any of the commands using a web browser, prefix them with the full IP address, followed by ?cmd=.
NOTE: With Telnet you can use either the Escape commands or the W commands, and the carriage return or the pipe (I) character. With the web browser you are required to use the W commands and the pipe character.
In either method, {Data} is data that is directed to a specified port and must be encoded if it is non-alphanumeric.
The command and response tables for SIS commands, starting on page 57, list the commands that the DVS 510 scaler recognizes as valid, the responses that are returned to the host, a description of the command function or the results of executing the command, and command examples.
NOTE: If the unit does not support or recognize a command that is entered, no action is taken and no response is returned.

HTML Configuration and Control
This section provides procedures for accessing and using the DVS 510 embedded Web pages. The following topics are included:
- Accessing the Web Pages
• Special Characters - System Status Page
- Configuration Pages
- File Management Page
- Control Pages
The DVS can be controlled and operated through its Ethernet port, connected via a LAN or WAN and using a web browser such as Microsoft® Internet Explorer®. The browser displays the DVS web pages, which provide an alternative means of configuring and operating the scaler. These factory-installed web pages are always available and cannot be erased or overwritten.
NOTE: If your Ethernet connection to the scaler is unstable, try turning off the proxy server in your Web browser. To do this in Microsoft Internet Explorer, click Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings, clear the Use a proxy server... checkbox, then click OK.
Accessing the Web Pages
Access the HTML pages as follows:
- Start the Web browser program.
- Click in the browser address field and enter the IP address of your DVS 510.
NOTE: If the local system administrators have not changed the value, use the factory-specified default 192.168.254.254 in this field.
- If you want the browser to display a page other than the default page (such as a custom page that you have uploaded), enter a slash (/) following the IP address and the name of the page file to open.
NOTES:
- The browser Address field should display the IP address in the following format: nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn/optional_file_name.html.
- The following characters are invalid or not recommended in file names:
-
\~ , @ = ` [ ] { } < > ' " ; : | \ and space.
-
Press the
key. The DVS checks to see if it is password protected.
• If the scaler is not password protected, the System Status Web page opens.
- If the DVS is password protected, the network password dialog box is displayed.
Figure 34. Example of a Network Password Dialog Box
- If an administrator or user password is required, enter it in the Password field. If desired, select the checkbox to have the system input your password the next time you enter your DVS IP address. Click OK.
NOTE: A User name entry is not required.
The DVS 510 checks several possibilities, in the following order, and then responds accordingly:
a. If the address includes a specific file name, such as
10.13.156.10/file_name.html, the scaler downloads that HTML page.
b. If there is a file in the DVS memory that is named index.html, the scaler downloads index.html as the default startup page.
c. If neither of the above conditions exists, the scaler downloads and displays the factory-installed default startup page, nortxe_index.html, which is the file name for the System Status page.
Special Characters
The HTML language reserves certain characters for specific functions. The DVS does not accept these characters as part of preset names, the scaler name, passwords, or locally created file names.
Use of the following characters is not recommended:
$$ + \sim , @ = ^ {\prime} [ ] {} < > ^ {\prime \prime};: | \backslash ? a n d s p a c e. $$
System Status Page
The System Status page provides an overall view of the status of the DVS, including firmware version and serial port settings. This page is the default page that the scaler downloads when connected. You can access the System Status page from other pages by clicking the Status tab.
Figure 35. System Status Page
The System Status Web page updates itself periodically to reflect the latest status of the scaler. If a variable changes, the display shows the change in status the next time it updates. You can also update the page by clicking the Refresh button in your browser.
Configuration Pages
The Configuration tab accesses four pages that are available only to an administrator. These pages are listed in the left sidebar menu on the Configuration tab. The following sections describe the changes you can make from these pages.
System Settings Page
The DVS 510 displays the System Settings page when you click the Configuration tab. The screen consists of fields in which you can view and edit IP administration and system settings. The Scaler Settings, Passwords, and Firmware Upgrade pages can be accessed by clicking the appropriate link on the left sidebar menu. (See IP Addressing on page 114 for basic information about IP addresses and subnetting.)
Figure 36. System Settings Page
On password-protected connections, there are two levels of protection: administrator and user. Administrators have full access to all scaling capabilities and editing functions. Users can select inputs, create and recall presets, and view all settings with the exception of passwords.
- Ethernet connection to the scaler can be password protected, either entering SIS commands (see Remote Configuration and Control, beginning on page 48) or using the Signal Processing Products Control Program (see the program help file).
- Connection via RS-232 or RS-422 is not password protected.
IP Settings fields
The IP Settings fields let you view and edit settings unique to the Ethernet interface. After editing any of the IP settings, click the Submit button at the bottom of this section.
Unit Name field
The Unit Name field contains the name used as the "from" information when the DVS e-mails notification of its failed or repaired status. You can change this name field to any valid name, up to 24 alphanumeric characters.
NOTE: The following characters are invalid or not recommended in the name:
+ ~ , @ = [ ] { } < > ' " ; : | \ and ?.
DHCP radio buttons
The DHCP On radio button directs the DVS to ignore any entered IP addresses and to obtain its IP address from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server (if the network is DHCP capable).
The DHCP Off radio button turns DHCP off (default).
Contact your local system administrator for this setting.
IP Address field
The IP Address field contains the IP address of the connected DVS. This address is encoded in the scaler flash memory.
Valid IP addresses consist of four octets: one-, two-, or three-digit numeric sub-fields separated by periods. Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros, up to three digits total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.
The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.
NOTE: IP address changes can cause conflicts with other equipment. Only local system administrators should change IP addresses.
Gateway IP Address field
The Gateway IP Address field identifies the address of the gateway (to the mail server) to be used if the scaler and the mail server are not on the same subnet.
The gateway IP address has the same validity rules as the system IP address (see “IP Address field,” above).
Subnet Mask field
The Subnet Mask field is used to determine whether the scaler is on the same subnet as the mail server when you are using a subnet (see Subnetting, a Primer, on page 118, for more information).
The subnet mask address has the same validity rules as the system IP and gateway IP addresses.
MAC Address
The MAC (media access control) address is a unique hardware address by which each individual DVS 510 can be identified. It consists of six pairs of characters separated by hyphens. For all Extron products, the first three character pairs are 00-05-A6, followed by three more pairs unique to the individual device. The MAC address is hard coded in the scaler and cannot be changed.
Date/Time Settings panel
The fields in the Date/Time Settings panel enable you to view and set the date and time parameters.
Figure 37. Date/Time Settings Fields
To change the date and time settings:
- In each Date or Time field that you want to change, select the desired value from the drop-down menu or key it in the field. (The Month drop-down menu is selected in figure 37), or
Click the Local Date/Time button to set the date and time to your local settings.
-
From the Zone menu, select your time zone. The selection displayed in the Zone field identifies the standard time zone and the amount of time, in hours and minutes, that local time varies from the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) international time reference.
-
If daylight saving time is currently in effect in your area, select the radio button for the area. If daylight saving time is not in effect or is not observed, select Off.
NOTE: When daylight savings time is enabled, the scaler updates its internal clock between standard time and daylight savings time in the spring and fall on the date that the time change occurs in the United States of America and parts of Europe and Brazil. When daylight savings time is turned off, the scaler does not adjust its time reference.
- Click the Submit button at the bottom of the Date/Time Settings panel to implement your selections.
Scaler Settings Page
The Scaler Settings page simulates elements of the DVS 510 front panel menu system and also allows you to set video input signals (for inputs 5, 6, 7, and 9 only), configure the output, and remotely select advanced configuration options.
Figure 38. Scaler Settings Page
Input Configuration panel
The Input Configuration panel contains drop-down menus that enable you to select various parameters for all or some of the inputs. The following menus are provided:
- Input — Select the analog signal type (RGB, YUVp/HDTV, RGBcvS, or YUVi) for inputs 5, 6, 7, and 9.
- Auto-Image — Enable (On) or disable (Off) Auto-Image for each input. When Auto-Image is enabled, each time an input is selected the DVS performs an image adjustment. This consists of measuring where the active area starts and stops and adjusting input sampling accordingly so that the image fills the window.
• Film Mode — Select Enable or Disable for film mode detection for each input.
- EDID — Select an EDID (resolution and refresh rate) for inputs 5, 6, 8, and 10. You can select Match Output, which applies the EDID of the output to the selected input, or select one of the following EDIDs:

Input presets
The DVS 510 Series has 128 input preset slots, which can save signal type, input configuration settings, and picture control settings for any of the inputs. These presets can be saved and recalled using the Windows-based control software (see the Signal Processing Products Control Program Help file), the front panel buttons (see Input Presets on page 39, or SIS commands (see the Input Presets commands on page 65). The following settings are stored in input presets:
- Input Type
- Preset Name*
- Film Mode Detect
- Zoom
- Pan
• Color
- Tint
- Contrast
- Brightness
- DETAIL Filter
- Horizontal Start
- Vertical Start
- Pixel Phase
- Total Pixels
• Horizontal Position
- Vertical Position
- Horizontal size
- Vertical size
*Can be set only by SIS command
The 128 input presets are global, containing all of the settings for an input when the DVS is used with a matrix switcher. This allows a matrix switcher with multiple types of video inputs to be connected to the DVS 510 to expand the number of input video sources.
Each input should be switched into the DVS, configured, then saved as a preset for recall by a control system when that input is sent from the switcher to any of the 10 DVS inputs.
- If an input preset is recalled to an input that does not support the signal type saved in the preset, an SIS error code is returned.
- If the signal frequencies and total line count do not match the frequencies saved in the preset, the DVS uses the auto memories settings instead of recalling the preset. If no auto memories exist for the frequency, the DVS references its lookup table (a generic list of default sampling parameters embedded in the DVS).
- If the output rate does not match the output rate that was active when the preset was saved, all settings in the input preset are recalled except size and position.
To create an input preset:
- In the Input Selection section, click the button for the input for which you want to create the preset.
- Using the User Control page, SIS commands, or the front panel controls, make any desired changes to the input parameters that you want to save in the new preset.
- Click the Presets link on the left sidebar menu to display the Presets page.
- From the Input Presets drop-down menu, select a number for the new preset.
- Click the Save button.
To recall a saved input preset:
• From the Input Presets drop-down menu, select a preset number.
- Click the Recall button. The preset is applied to the current input.

Rack Mounting
UL guidelines for rack mounting
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the installation of the DVS 510 in a rack:
- Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the equipment is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
- Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
- Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical loading does not create a hazardous condition.
- Circuit overloading — When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, consider the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.
- Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips).
Rack mounting procedure
The DVS 510 scaler is delivered with MBD 249 mounting brackets attached. For optional rack mounting, do not install the rubber feet.
Mount the scaler in the rack as follows (see figure 47 on the next page):
- Insert the unit into the rack and align the holes in the mounting brackets with the holes in the rack.
- Use four machine screws (provided) to attach the brackets to the rack.
Figure 47. Rack Mounting a DVS 510 Scaler
Tabletop Use
To set up the unit for tabletop use:
- Remove the eight screws to detach the mounting brackets from the sides of the unit.
- Attach one of the provided self-adhesive rubber feet to each corner of the bottom of the unit.
Button Labels
The DVS 510 is delivered with button caps pre-labeled for your convenience. However, you can replace these labels with your own button labels, if desired. Page 113 contains blank button labels. If desired, print the page and cut the labels out, write button information in each button area as desired, and insert them behind the transparent button caps. You can also create labels using the Button Label Generator software, provided with the DVS on the Extron software DVD.
Replacing Button Labels
The button assembly consists of a clear lens cap, the button label, and a white diffuser (see figure 48 on the next page).
To replace a button label:
- Make new labels as needed, using either the blanks on page 113 or the Button Label Generator software, and cut them out.
-
Remove the button assembly by inserting a small, flat-bladed screwdriver between the button base and the diffuser to gently pry the button assembly off the button plunger (see figure 48, ②).

Creating Labels Using the Button Label Generator
The Button Label Generator software creates labels that you can place inside the transparent covers of the front panel buttons. You can create labels with names, alphanumeric characters, icons, and even colored bitmaps for easy and intuitive input and output selection (see Replacing Button Labels on the previous page for procedures for removing and replacing the button covers).
The program is contained on the same DVD as the Signal Processing Products Control Program, and is installed automatically when you install the control software. By default, the software installation creates a directory for the program at C:\Program Files\Extron\ButtonLabelGenerator. The Button Label Generator icon is placed in the Extron Electronics group or folder.
- To run the label creation program, double-click on the Button Label Generator icon (shown at right) in the Extron Electronics group or folder. The Button Label Generator window opens.
Figure 49. Button Label Generator Window (Example)
- From the Systems pull-down menu, select a layout that most resembles the DVS 510 front panel buttons (although you can select any layout from this menu). You can also select Customize Button Layouts from the Tools menu to open the Customize button layout window, on which you can create your own layout.
- Click on the button representation that you want to edit. A red box surrounds the selected button.
-
Edit the selected button by using any of the tools provided on the Button Label Generator window. Some of the edits you can make are:
-
Enter text and select the font, text size, and text color from the drop-down menus on the tool bar.
- Select an icon from the Button Picture Palette and drag it to the desired button.
- Place a bitmap image from your computer on a selected button.
To remove all the text or the image from a selected button, click Clear Button. To remove the text and images from all the buttons, click Clear All Buttons.
To access the Button Label Generator Help, select Use Help from the Help menu.
- When finished creating the labels, print out your labels by selecting Print from the File menu in the upper-left corner of the Button Label Generator window.
To save the button labels as an .xml file on your computer, select Save As from the File menu and enter a name for the label file.

IP Addressing
What is an IP Address?
An IP address is a 32-bit binary number that is used to identify each device on an Ethernet network. This number is usually represented by four decimal numbers (each in the range of 0 to 255) separated by dots, such as 198.123.34.240. This is called “dotted decimal notation.”
An IP address is divided into two parts:
• Network identifier
- Host identifier
Each address on a given network must have the same network identifier value but a unique host identifier. As a result, there are different classes of addresses that define the range of valid addresses and which parts of the address are used for the network and host identifiers. The table below shows the most common IP address classes. In this table, NNN refers to the network identifier and HHH refers to the host identifier.
| Class Name Valid Address Range Identifier Arrangement | |
| Class A 0.0.0.1 to 127.255.255.254 | NNN.HHH.HHH.HHH |
| Class B 128.0.0.1 to 191.255.255.254 | NNN.NNN.HHH.HHH |
| Class C 192.0.0.1 to 223.255.255.254 | NNN.NNN.NNN.HHH |
Choosing IP Addresses
If the computer and the DVS are directly connected or connected via their own independent network, follow the guidelines below to choose the IP addresses.
However, if you intend to connect your computer and scaler to an existing network, you need to ask the network administrator to allocate suitable IP addresses.
On an independent network, it is generally recommended that you use the Class C format (from 192.0.0.1 to 223.255.255.254).
There are two rules for choosing IP addresses:
- The network identifier must be the same for each IP address.
- The host identifier must be unique for each address.
By these rules, the first three decimal values of your class C IP address must all be the same, while the last value is identifies each device.
The following is an example of a valid Class C addressing scheme:
| Device IP Address | |
| SPPCP Control Software Computer 208.132.180.41 | |
| DVS 510 208.132.180.42 | |
NOTE: The host identifiers (41 and 42 in the example above) do not need to be sequential or in any particular order. However, it is recommended that you group the numbers for simplicity.
The following is an example of an invalid Class C addressing scheme:
| Device IP Address | |
| SPPCP Control Software Computer 208.132.180.41 | |
| DVS 510 192.157.180.42 | |
NOTE: The above addresses are invalid because the network identifier for each address is not the same even though each IP address is unique.
You can perform a test from your computer to check that a device at a particular address is responding correctly or to determine its address (see "Pinging for the IP Address").
Subnet Mask
The subnet mask is another 32-bit binary number that is used to "mask" certain bits of the IP address. This provides a method of extending the number of network options for a given IP address. It works by allowing part of the host identifier to be used as a subnet identifier. It is important that you set the correct value for the subnet mask. The basic values depend on the class of IP address being used.
| Class Name Subnet Mask | |
| Class A 255.0.0.0 | |
| Class B 255.255.0.0 | |
| Class C 255.255.255.0 | |
(See Subnetting, a Primer on page 118 for more information.)
Pinging for the IP Address
To access the DVS 510 via the Ethernet port, you need the scaler IP address. If the address has been changed to an address comprised of words and characters, you can determine the actual numeric IP address using the Ping utility. If the address has not been changed, the factory-specified default is 192.168.254.254.
Ping can also be used to test the Ethernet link to the DVS 510 Series.
Pinging to determine the Extron IP address
The Microsoft Ping utility is accessed via the command prompt. Ping tests the Ethernet interface between the computer and the DVS 510 scaler. Ping can also be used to determine the actual numeric IP address from an alias and to determine the Web address.
Ping the scaler as follows:
- In the lower-left corner of the computer screen, click the Windows Start icon.
- In the Search programs and files field, enter command.
-
On the pop-up window that opens, click Command Prompt. A command prompt window opens.
-
At the command prompt, enter ping IP address. The computer returns a display similar to figure 50.
The line Pinging ... reports the actual numeric IP address, regardless of whether you entered the actual numeric IP address or an alias name.
Figure 50. Ping Command and Response
Pinging to determine the web IP address
The Ping utility has a modifier, -a, that directs the command to return the web address rather than the numeric IP address.
At the prompt, enter ping -a IP address. The display that the computer returns is similar to the Ping response shown in figure 50, except that when you enter -a, the Pinging mail... line reports the web IP address instead of the numeric IP address, regardless of whether you entered the actual numeric IP address or an alias name.
Connecting as a Telnet Client
The Microsoft Telnet utility is accessed via the command prompt. Telnet allows you to input SIS commands to the DVS from the PC via the Ethernet link and the LAN.
To start Telnet as follows:
- In the lower-left corner of the computer screen, click the Windows Start icon.
- In the Search programs and files field, enter command.
-
On the pop-up window that opens, click Command Prompt. A command prompt window opens.
-
At the prompt, enter telnet. The computer returns a display similar to figure 51.

Telnet tips
It is not the intention of this guide to detail all of the operations and functionality of Telnet, however, some basic level of understanding is necessary for operating the DVS 510 Series via Telnet.
Connecting to the DVS (Open command)
Use the Open command to connect the computer to the DVS 510 scale. After the computer and scaler are connected, you can enter the SIS commands the same as you would if you were using the RS-232 or RS-422 link.
Connect the computer to the DVS as follows:
-
At the Telnet prompt, enter open {IP address}.
-
If the scaler is not password protected, no further prompts are displayed until you disconnect from the DVS.
-
If the scaler is password protected, Telnet displays a password prompt.
-
If necessary, enter the password at the prompt.
Connection to the scaler via Ethernet can be password protected. There are two levels of password: administrator and user.
- Administrator — A person logged on as an administrator has full access to all DVS scaling capabilities and editing functions.
- User — Users can select test patterns, mute or unmute the output, select a blue screen, and view all settings with the exception of passwords. By default, the scaler is delivered with both passwords set to “carriage return.”
When you are logged in, the scaler returns either Login Administrator or Login User. No further prompts are displayed until you disconnect from the DVS 510.
Escape character and key
Many SIS commands include the keyboard
When Telnet is first started, the utility advises that the Escape character is <Ctrl+]. This means that the Telnet Escape character is a key combination: the
Local echo
Once your computer is connected to the DVS 510, by default Telnet does not display your keystrokes on the screen. SIS commands are entered blindly, and only the SIS responses are displayed on the screen. To command Telnet to show all keystrokes, enter set local_echo at the Telnet prompt before you open the connection to the scaler.
With local echo turned on, keystrokes and the scaler responses are displayed on the same line.
Example: 1*1! In1 Out1 All,
where 1*1! is the SIS command and In1 Out1 All is the response.
Note that all keystrokes are displayed, even those that should be masked, such as the password entry. For example, when entering a password with local echo turned on, you see a display such as a*d*m*i*n*, where admin is the keyed-in password and ***** is the masked response.
Local echo can be turned off by entering unset local_echo at the Telnet prompt. If your computer is connected to the DVS, and you need to access the Telnet prompt to turn local echo off, enter the Escape sequence (
Setting carriage return with line feed
Unless commanded otherwise, Telnet transmits a line feed character only (no carriage return) to the connected scaler when you press the
Closing the link to the scaler
To close the link to the scaler, access the Telnet prompt by entering the Escape sequence (
Help
For Telnet command definitions, enter ? at the Telnet prompt.
Exiting Telnet (Quit command)
Exit the Telnet utility by entering quit at the Telnet prompt. If you are connected to the DVS, access the Telnet prompt by entering the Escape sequence (
Subnetting, a Primer
A subnet is a subset of a network — a set of IP devices that have portions of their IP addresses in common. It is not the purpose of this manual to describe TCP/IP protocol in detail. However, some understanding of TCP/IP subnetting is necessary in order to understand the interaction of the DVS 510 and the mail server gateway. To understand subnetting at the level required to install and operate the DVS 510, you must understand the concepts of a gateway, local and remote devices, IP addresses and octets, and subnet masks and octets.
Gateways
The DVS 510 Series can communicate with the e-mail server that it uses for e-mail notification directly (if they are on the same subnet), or its communication can be routed via a gateway (a computer that provides a link between different subnets).
Local and remote devices
The local and remote devices are defined from the point of view of the function being described. In this guide, subnetting is an issue when you are using the controlling computer to set TCP/IP and e-mail values in the DVS (see Establishing an Ethernet Connection Using TCP on page 49. When you are setting up the variables for e-mail notification, the scaler is the local device and the e-mail server is the remote device.
IP addresses and octets
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric sub-fields, called "octets," which
are separated by dots (periods) (see the illustration at right). Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros, up to three digits total per octet, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.
Subnet masks and octets
The subnet mask (figure 52) is used to determine whether the local and remote devices are on the same subnet or different subnets. The subnet mask consists of four numeric octets separated by dots. Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros, up to three digits total per octet, are optional. Each octet typically contains either 255 or 0. The octets determine whether or not the same octets of two IP addresses will be compared when determining if two devices are on the same subnet.
255 indicates that this octet will be compared between two IP addresses.
0 indicates that this octet will not be compared between two IP addresses.
255.255.0.0 Typical Subnet Mask: Octets
Figure 52. Subnet Mask and Octets
Determining whether devices are on the same subnet
To determine the subnet, the local device IP address is compared to the remote device IP address (see figure 53). The octets of each address are compared or not, depending on the value in the related subnet mask octet.
- If a subnet mask octet contains the value 255, the related octets of the local device address and the remote device IP address are unmasked.
Unmasked octets are compared (indicated by ? in figure 53).
- If the subnet mask octet contains the value 0, the related octets of the local device and remote device IP addresses are masked.
Masked octets are not compared (indicated by X in figure 53).
If the unmasked octets of the two IP addresses match (indicated by = in example 1 of figure 53), the two addresses are on the same subnet.
If the two unmasked fields do not match (indicated by an unequal sign ( ) in figure 53, examples 2 and 3), the addresses are not on the same subnet.
| Example 1 Example 2 | Example 3 | ||
| Local IP Address: | 192.168.254.254 | 192.168.254.254 | 192.168.254.254 |
| Subnet Mask: | 255.255.0.0 (??.XX) | 255.255.0.0 (??.XX) | 255.255.0.0 (??.XX) |
| Remote IP Address: | 192.168.2.25 | 190.190.2.25 | 192.190.2.25 |
| Match?: | = . = .XX— Match(Same subnet) (Different subnet) | ≠ . ≠ .XX— No match(Different subnet) | = . ≠ .XX— No match |
