Extron electronic System 7SC Switch User Manual


 
1-5System 7SC • Introduction
Triple-Action Switching
— With this method, a blank screen is displayed while
the System 7SC switches between inputs.
Built-in video scaler — This feature scales all composite, S-video and component
video signals up to computer-video rates for output on RGB display devices.
Accu-RATE Frame Lock
— The patented Extron Accu-RATE Frame Lock
eliminates artifacts from scaled motion video by eliminating frame rate
conversion. It locks the output frame rate to the input frame rate of the active
input. The result is a switching system that eliminates image tears and other
artifacts from motion video.
Dynamic Motion Interpolation (DMI
) — This video processing technique is an
advanced motion prediction and compensation method that treats motion
content and still content with different algorithms to yield high fidelity images.
3:2 pulldown detection for NTSC and 2:2 film detection for PAL video sources
These advanced film mode processing features help maximize image detail
and sharpness for video sources that originated from film. When film is
converted to NTSC video, the film frame rate has to be matched to the video
frame rate in a process called 3:2 pulldown. Jaggies and other image artifacts
can result if conventional deinterlacing techniques are used on film-source
video. The System 7SC’s advanced film mode processing recognizes signals
that originated from film. The System 7SC then applies video processing
algorithms that optimize the conversion of video that was made with the 3:2
pulldown process. This results in richly detailed images with sharply
defined lines. A similar process is used for PAL film-source video.
Versatile mounting options — The System 7SC can be rack mounted, or it can be
placed on a table or other furniture. Rubber feet and rack mounting
hardware are included.
Options and accessories
The System 7SC’s optional equipment expands a user’s ability to control system
devices. Optional equipment includes:
Display power sensor — This sensor (part #60-271-01) detects whether the
projector’s power is on or off.
SCP control pads — Up to sixteen (16) Extron SCP/AAP A, SCP 200, and/or
SCP 250 control pads can be connected via a rear panel port. Each SCP
replicates some or all of the System 7SC’s front panel controls.
IR Broadcaster — The Extron IR Broadcaster (part #60-272-02) has a greater
range than the IR Emitter and transmits signals over a wide area.
