Installation and Setup
Typical Configuration
Figure 1 shows a typical configuration for a home theater system. In this setup, the iScan Pro is
being used to enhance the output from a DVD player, a satellite receiver and a VCR before the
selected signal is sent to a rear screen projection TV, or another progressively scanned display
device. Your configuration may be significantly different from this but the basic functional blocks –
input devices, input cables, iScan Pro, output cable and display device – will exist in your system.
One common deviation from this configuration is to use an A/V Receiver or another video switching
device to switch the video signals from the input devices. In this case, the input devices shown
below will be connected to the inputs of the A/V Receiver. The output of the A/V Receiver will then
be the only input device to the iScan Pro.
