Installation
WARNING: The default output signal from the video converter/
scaler is 1024 x 768 (XGA) at 60 Hz. Not all display devices have the
capability to display this resolution, so it is advisable to consult the
documentation for your display before attempting installation. If your
display does not support this resolution, you may not be able to access
the menu features through the on-screen display (OSD).
Hardware Installation
Make sure all devices and components are powered off.1.
Connect the VGA/Component video source into the “PC/HD IN”2.
connector on the video converter. If using a VGA source, then a
standard male/male cable should suffice. If using a component
source, use the included VGA to Component breakout cable.
Plug the power adapter into the video converter. The Power LED3.
should light up steady.
Connect the “PC/HD Output” on the converter to the display device.4.
If connecting a display with VGA inputs, a standard male/male VGA
cable should suffice. If connecting a display with component inputs,
use the included VGA to Component breakout cable.
Power on the display device.5.
Power on the video converter.6.
Power on the video source.7.
Driver Installation
No driver or software installation is required, as the video converter is
an external device, not visible to the video source or display device.

How to Use
On-Screen Display
The video converter/scaler has a built in On-Screen Display (OSD)
that can be accessed via the push buttons on the unit itself. The OSD
allows for manual configuration of the video converter/scaler. Press the
“Menu” button to activate the OSD and the + and - buttons to navigate
the menu. Press the “Menu” button to confirm selections.
NOTE: The OSD will only activate if an active video source is
connected to the video converter/scaler. If a video source is not
connected or not turned on, the OSD will not be visible.
The OSD allows for adjustments to the output picture, such as
brightness, contact, color and output resolution. These options should
allow for an optimal video image to be displayed on the display device.
If the wrong output resolution is selected, or incompatible with the
type of display device being used, the output resolution can be reset
to either XGA or 480p modes by pressing the “Menu” and + or “Menu”
and - buttons simultaneously. XGA mode should be used for any
display device that would normally be connected directly to a computer
system (i.e. computer monitor), while 480p should be used for a display
device that would normally be connected to cable/satellite TV.
