RGB 460xi Series • Introduction
Features
Horizontal shifting control — The displayed image may be
shifted to the left or right by turning a front panel knob.
Advanced Digital Sync Processing™ (ADSP™) — ADSP
allows sync processing operations, such as horizontal
centering, to occur without affecting the sync timing of
the signal. This allows horizontal centering to be applied
to signals that are output to digital display devices such
as LCD projectors, DLP projectors and plasma displays.
An internal DIP switch provides another option, Digital
Display Sync Processing™ (DDSP™), to ensure proper
displays without altering sync pulse timing or width.
Stereo audio — Unbalanced stereo audio inputs can be output
as balanced or unbalanced unamplified stereo audio.

N
The default for all DIP switches, except for switch 7, is
Off (down).
1 — Sync on green
Off — The interface outputs separate horizontal and
vertical sync (on the H and V connectors) for
RGBHV.
On — The interface outputs sync on green (RGsB).
2 — Composite sync — This switch controls composite sync
output.
Off — The interface outputs RGBHV or RGsB video.
On — The interface outputs combined horizontal and
vertical sync for RGBS.
3 — DDSP (Digital Display Sync Processing) — This feature
may be necessary for digital display devices such as LCD,
DLP, and plasma displays. ADSP is the default. If the
image is not displayed properly after other options, such as
serration pulse (4) and vertical sync pulse width (5), have
been explored set this switch to On.
Off — The interface performs sync processing operations,
such as centering, with ADSP.
On — The interface uses DDSP.
N
DDSP disables the horizontal shifting control.
4 — Serration pulse — Many LCD, DLP projectors and plasma
displays must have serration pulses removed from the sync
signal in order to display the image properly. Flagging or
bending at the top of the video image is a sign the serration
pulses should be removed.
Off — The interface does not output serration pulses.
On — The interface outputs serration pulses in the vertical
sync interval.

5 — Vertical sync pulse width — Try adjusting the output
vertical sync pulse width if no picture appears, the picture
cuts in and out, or the picture is scrambled.
Off — The vertical sync pulse is wide.
On — The vertical sync pulse is narrow.
N
You can also try switching from ADSP to DDSP, as
explained in the description for DIP switch 3 on the
previous page.
6 — Negative sync — This switch controls sync polarity.
Off — Output sync polarity follows (is the same as) input
polarity.
On — Both the horizontal and the vertical sync signals are
forced to negative polarity on output.
7 & 8 — Composite sync routing — These switches work
together to route local monitor signals for Macintosh 13”
monitors and all other Macintosh and VGA-type monitors.
N
To be valid, these switches must be set so that one is
Off and the other is On. If both are set to On or Off,
composite sync routing will not function.
7 (On), 8 (Off) — Sync routing to 15-pin HD local monitor
for all Macintosh (non-13") and VGA monitors
(default).
7 (Off), 8 (On) — Sync routing to 15-pin HD local monitor
for a Macintosh 13" monitor.
RGB video output connectors — Attach coaxial cables from the
interface to the display device via these female BNC connectors.
These BNCs are on red, green, blue, black, and yellow pigtail
wires secured to the interface by the tie wraps.

c
For RGBHV output: R is red, G is green, B is blue, H is black,
and V is yellow.
For RGBS output: R is red, G is green, B is blue, and S is black.
For RGsB output: R is red, G is green, and B is blue.
Gain switch — To compensate for cable resistance and
capacitance, slide this switch to select the level of video gain that
yields the sharpest picture:
Normal (bottom position) — unity gain (no signal boost).
Medium (middle position) — mid-level peaking and gain.
Maximum (top position) — maximum amount of peaking and
gain. (Select this for use with longer cables.)
2-8
RGB 460xi Series • Installation and Operation
If the signal cable between the interface and the output
device is shorter than approximately 125 feet, and
the gain switch is set to Medium or Maximum, the
image may be overcompensated. If the edges of the
image seem to exceed their boundaries, or if thin lines
and sharp edges look thick and fuzzy, try changing
the gain/peaking setting. The gain switch will not be
accessible after installation, so adjust the gain before
placing the interface into a wall or furniture.

4.
Be sure to include the AAP/MAAP connectors as part
of the installation pretest before final installation of the
interface.
For more information about interface installation, refer to
the appropriate installation guide.
Pre-installation Testing
Before installing the interface into the wall, furniture, or floor
box, test the system as follows to verify the connections and
settings are correct.
1.
2.
Apply power to the interface. The power/signal LED
on the interface should light to indicate the interface is
receiving power.
Check all connectors and controls to make sure they are
functioning properly.
Troubleshooting
If the power/signal LED does not light or an installation
component does not function properly, first check the wiring at
both the interface and the power supply, and then ensure the
power supply is connected to a power source.
If the image does not appear or there is no sound
1.
2.
Make sure that all the devices are powered on.
Ensure the connectors are wired correctly at both ends of
the cables. Audio cables must be wired for an unbalanced
stereo input signal and for a balanced or an unbalanced
stereo output signal.
3. If input is from a laptop computer and no picture appears,
use a laptop breakout cable for the input connection. Check
the computer’s user’s guide or contact Extron to determine
if special commands are required to output video to the
external video port. Also, many laptops’ screens shut off
after the external video port is activated.
4.
Call the Extron S3 Sales and Technical Support Hotline if
the image still does not appear or there is no sound.
If the image is not displayed correctly
1.
If the picture is too bright or dark, or if the edges of the
image seem to exceed their boundaries, or if thin lines and
sharp edges look thick and fuzzy, change the gain setting.

2.
If the picture appears and is stable, but it has ghosting or
blooming, verify the video input is properly terminated. If
the problem is not resolved by changing the termination,
try using a different input cable. Poor quality or damaged
cable can cause ghosting or blooming.
3.
If the picture still is not displayed correctly, call the Extron
S3 Sales and Technical Support Hotline.
If the interface does not respond to horizontal shifting
If the picture does not move on screen when the horizontal
shift control knob is rotated, DDSP is in use. Set the DDSP DIP
switch to Off.
Interface Mounting
Once the system has been cabled and tested, the interface can
be installed in the wall, furniture, or floor box. To mount the
interface, refer to the installation guide that addresses your
specific requirements.
