Key Features Video Inputs • Three HDMI inputs and two universal auto-detecting analog video inputs — The two universal 15-pin HD inputs automatically detect incoming RGB, HD component video, YUVi, S-video, or composite video signals. The DVS 605 allows for seamless switching between HDMI and analog video sources.
• Integrated audio delay — The audio output is automatically delayed to compensate for latency introduced by the video processing. An additional audio delay can also be adjusted to a user defined setting. • HDMI audio embedding and de-embedding — For DVS 605 models with audio, analog input audio signals can be embedded onto the HDMI output signal. The DVS 605 can also extract PCM embedded HDMI audio signals.
• Picture controls for brightness, contrast, color, tint, and detail, as well as horizontal and vertical positioning, and sizing — 16 user memory presets are available for each input to store all image settings. • Automatic 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection — The DVS 605 offers advanced film mode processing techniques that help maximize image detail and sharpness for NTSC, PAL, and HDTV 1080i sources that originated from film.
Controlling the DVS 605 All DVS 605 Series units can be controlled using one or more of the following methods: • The front panel controls. • A computer, a touch screen panel, or any other device that can send and receive serial communications through the USB, RS-232 or Ethernet port. The Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS) is a set of simple keystroke commands that can be used with any such devices.

Operation This section of the manual discusses the operation of a DVS 605 device, and is divided into four sections: • Front Panel Overview • Powering Up • The DVS 605 Menu System — Configuration and Adjustments • Front Panel Lockout (Executive Modes) • Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode • Resetting the Unit Front Panel Overview 3 DVS 605 1 2 4 5 3 PIP SWAP CONFIG 1 2 4 DIGITAL VIDEO SCALER MENU AUTO EXTRON DVS 605 5 ADJUST NEXT 6 7 Figure 7.
Powering Up When applying power to the DVS 605, the unit undergoes a start-up self testing sequence (see image below) and then the LCD displays the default display cycle. Default Display Cycle When in use but not in any menu mode, the LCD screen defaults to cycling through the input/output configuration currently installed. The displayed content may vary, depending on the input video signal type. See figure 8 for a typical default display cycle. Apply Power 13 sec. Note: Times shown are approximate.
The DVS 605 Menu System — Configuration and Adjustments Scaler configuration and adjustments can be performed by using the embedded web pages (see “Using Default Web Pages” section), the Windows-based control program (see the “Extron Configurator” section), the Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) of commands (see the “SIS Communication and Control” section), or by using the front panel controls and the menus displayed on the DVS unit’s LCD screen.
DVS 605 • Operation 14 Menu NOTE Where used in this flow chart “x” indicates the input number. Rotate either to select a preset to save current settings to. INx SAVE <02> Next Rotate either to select a preset to recall settings. INx RECALL Next USER PRESETS Next Next Rotate to adjust color. Rotate to adjust tint (* = default). TINT *064 Menu Rotate to set an EDID value for the active input. INx EDID 1600x1200@60 Next Rotate to adjust total pixels (* = default).
To return to the default cycle form within any menu, press the Menu button repeatedly until the Exit menu appears, then press the Next button. Alternatively, allow the DVS 605 to time-out (after 20 seconds). Submenus are accessed from a main menu by pressing the Next button. When within a submenu, press the Menu button to go out of the submenu and back to the active main menu. User Presets This menu alows the user save or recall up to 16 presets for the selected input, shown as INx on the LCD screen.
Input Configuration This menu allows the user to adjust various input configuration settings such as; video signal type, film mode, horizontal and vertical start position, horizontal and vertical active pixels, total pixel number, phase, and EDID settings for the selected input. The selected input is shown as (x) on the LCD screen images. INPUT CONFIG Next INPUT #x RGB Next (x)FILM MODE OFF Rotate either to turn film mode off or on. Rotate either to select input signal type.
Output Configuration The output configuration menu allows selection of; output resolution and refresh rates, analog output types (RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB and Y, B-Y, R-Y), sync polarity, HDMI format, HDCP notification display, Genlock setting. Next OUTPUT CONFIG RESOLUTION 1365x1024@60 Next VGA FORMAT RGBHV Next HDCP NOTE OFF Rotate either to set sync values. Next GENLOCK OFF Rotate either to tun HDCP note on or off. Rotate either to set HDMI format.
When a new custom rate has ben captured or uploaded, the On-Screen-Display (OSD) dynamically updates with the new rate for that custom slot. For example if a custom 480p EDID is uploaded to slot C1, the LCD would read “C1: 720x480”. These five custom slots are shared between custom output resolutions (based on preferred timings 1 block) and custom EDID tables, which can be assigned to any DVS input.
If either genlock mode is enabled, but no genlock or reference input signal is being applied to the scaler, the DVS 605 defaults to an internally generated vertical refresh rate that matches the current output resolution setting. Use either of the Adjust knobs ([ {), to turn genlock off, set to Input signal, or set to SDI genlock (where applicable). When genlock is enabled a fourth default cycle menu appears. 2 sec. Default e Display Cycle IN RGBHV #1 640x480 2 sec. 2 sec. IN 31.47 kHz #1 59.
Input audio format Description None All audio for the input is muted: 128 byte EDID (VGA/DVI) is presented to the source. Analog 5-pole captive screw connector is used for audio input: 128 byte EDID (VGA/DVI) is presented to the source. 2-channel digital 256 byte EDID (HDMI) is presented to the source requesting 2CH PCM audio. Full digital 256 byte EDID (HDMI) is presented to the source allowing for all digital audio formats.
Auto-Image™ Use either Adjust knob ([ {) to turn Auto-Image on or off (default). When enabled and a new input frequency is detected, the DVS first applies an existing Auto Memory for the signal (if Auto Memory is enabled), or if no entry exists, performs an automatic Auto-Image on the new signal. This automatically attempts to size/position the image to fill the screen, with respect to the current Aspect Ratio setting.
Switch This option enables a video switch transition (cut or dissolve) when switching between inputs. Use either of the Adjust knobs ([ {) to select the switch type as desired. NOTE: Input switches between input 4 and input 5 use a fade through black transition. Test pattern The built-in test patterns are useful for calibrating a display to the DVS 605 output. Choose a test pattern such as crop, alternating pixels, and color bars to adjust the image.
View Comm Settings The current RS-232 and IP settings are read-only with this menu. To make any setting adjustments, the “hidden” Edit Comm Settings menu must be accessed (see below). Press Next to go through each sublevel to view the following: Serial port (baud rate and communication type), MAC address (cannot be changed), DHCP status (on or off), IP address, Subnet mask, and Gateway address.
Picture-in-picture (PIP) Mode The DVS 605 can display two images on the screen simultaneously. The PIP window can be activated using front panel PIP button, discrete SIS commands, PIP presets, device embedded web pages, or the Extron Configurator Program. See “SIS Communication and Control”, or “Using the Default Web Pages”, or “Using the Extron Configurator Program” for details. NOTE: Input 5 is not available for PIP mode.
PIP Presets A PIP preset contains settings for the size and position of PIP and the main and PIP inputs that were active when the preset was saved. PIP presets are used to quickly recall a group of settings that relate to the main and PIP windows and content settings. 16 global PIP presets are available for the DVS 605. A set of 10 factory default layouts exist and can be overwritten by saving new presets. PIP presets can only be restored to factory defaults and not deleted.
Resetting the Unit There are four unit reset modes (numbered 1, 3, 4, and 5), These are available by pressing the recessed Reset button on the rear panel with a pointed stylus, pen, or similar item to access it. See the following table for a summary of the reset modes. CAUTION: Review the reset modes carefully. Using the wrong reset mode may result in unintended loss of flash memory programming, port reassignment, or processor reboot.
SIS Communication and Control The DVS 605 can be configured and controlled via a host computer or other device (such as a control system) attached to the rear panel RS-232 connector or the LAN port or the front panel USB port. Control is made using the Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS) of commands, or the DVS 605 Configuration Software Program, or the DVS default web pages. Commands can be entered using a Telnet application such as the Extron DataViewer, available at www.extron.com.
