Extron’s VSC 100 high resolution computer to video scan converter provides a professional

quality image. Combining exceptional performance and value, the VSC 100 is ideal for

scan converting computer images up to 1152 x 900 for recording, videoconferencing or

viewing the image on an NTSC or PAL monitor or other display device. The VSC 100

has two user-selectable levels of horizontal filtering to reduce detail loss and three user-selec-

table levels of vertical filtering to reduce flicker. The VSC 100 autoscans resolutions up to

1152 x 900, horizontal scan rates up to 70 kHz and vertical scan rates up to 120 Hz. With

VGA and Mac inputs and composite, S-video and RGBHV outputs, the VSC 100 is com-

patible with most computers and any display device on the market. The VSC 100GX

model is identical to the VSC 100 but features an additional component output and a gen-

lock option which allows the VSC 100GX to be sync-locked with other devices for seam-

less vertical interval switching.

Today’s A/V community requires scan converters to provide extensive control over image

output. The VSC 100’s zoom switch, horizontal and vertical centering/pan controls, image

freeze button and other features provide that control and more. The three-position zoom

switch offers overscan, underscan and 2x zoom. In the zoom mode, the horizontal and ver-

tical centering controls become variable pan controls, allowing for detailed imaging and

panning of the picture—vital when showing detailed sections of CAD diagrams during a

videoconference. The VSC 100’s memory feature automatically saves and recalls horizontal

and vertical centering settings for up to 60 factory/user presets.

■

Autoscanning– Recognizes and converts the computer image, up to

1152 x 900

resolution, 70 kHz horizontal and 120 Hz vertical scan rates.

■

NTSC and PAL output– The VSC 100 is compatible with NTSC or PAL.

■

VGA/Mac input– Accepts 15-pin D and HD connectors for easy

connection to any Macintosh or IBM-compatible computer. The passive local

monitor output allows the user to display images on the local monitor as video

plays simultaneously on the display device.

■

Three setting zoom switch– Can be used for overscan, underscan or as a 2x

zoom switch, to give greater control over the image displayed. Increased pixel

clocking is used to give greater quality of the image displayed.

■

Horizontal and vertical centering/pan controls– Provides controls to center the

image. In zoom mode, the horizontal and vertical controls allow the user to pan

across the image for greater flexibility in showing detail.

■

Horizontal and vertical filtering– Two user-selectable levels of horizontal filtering

and three levels of vertical filtering to reduce flicker and minimize loss of picture detail.

■

Outputs– Extron’s VSC 100 outputs NTSC and PAL video as composite,

S-video and RGBH/HV outputs.

■

Cables included– The VSC 100 includes an input adapter cable for Mac and VGA

and a 4 pin DIN (S-video) output cable.

VSC 100GX includes all of the above features plus:

■

Genlock– Allows for the integration of the scan converted images into a professional

broadcast environment. Genlocking provides for seamless, vertical interval switching

of these converted high resolution sources, and other video sources.

■

Component output– For use in professional broadcast applications or high

quality output for video recording.
