HALL TECHNOLOGIES HT-TRK1 18 Channel VGA Video Splitter Distribution
Amplifier
Description
The Model 210-LU buffers and splits component (RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB) video
signals for display on two monitors. The unit can drive video cables up to 150
feet or longer depending on the resolution used and cable quality.
The input video signal can be RGBHV (five connections, separate syncs), or
RGBS (four connections, composite sync), or RGsB (sometimes referred to RGB –
three connections, with sync-on-green).
The device is capable of outputting separate, composite, or sync-on-green
based on a switch setting, independently for each output. For example you can
set output # 1 for separate sync and output 2 for sync-on-green regardless of
the type of sync at the input. The Model 210-LU can be powered from a supplied
power adapter, or from a customer furnished +5 vDC power supply.
Features
- Rugged, Reliable, Economical
- Automatically detects and accepts all input sync modes
- 300 MHz Bandwidth
- Powered from supplied AC adapter or customer supplied 5 vDC
- Each output can independently generate composite sync
- LED power indicator
- BNC connectors on input and outputs
- Mounting holes for attachment in user equipment
Setup
Connect the signal source to the input terminals and also connect the outputs.
Place the selector switches for each output according to the instructions in
the next section.
Apply either the power from the provided AC adapter or 5vDC via the 4-pin
Molex connector to turn on the device.
Operation
Regardless of the type of the input sync you can set the output sync mode.
When the switch is in “SEP”, the output will have separate H and V syncs. In
“COMP” mode the output will output a composite-sync on the H output BNC. When
in “GRN” a sync-on-green output is provided
The Model 210-LU automatically detects the input sync mode (by examining the
signal at its V, H, and Green inputs in that order, to determine what type of
sync it is getting. Note that if you have RGBS (composite sync) on the input
then the Vertical input should have no connection or no signal.
The unit can create separate syncs form S, or strip the sync (sync-stripper)
from the green input.
Usage Notes:
- The 210-LU does not change the resolution of the signal. So if your monitor does not support the resolution of the input signal, you will not be able to get an image, regardless of what type of sync you output to it.
- HRT recommends that you put the output to “COMP” as default, since most monitors support that mode. If you don’t get a picture, then try “SEP” or “GRN” in that order
- The 210-LU does not convert YPbPr (component video) to RGB or vice versa.
- You can use the 210-LU to split YPbPr (component video), in that case set both switches to “GRN”
Power Requirements
The Model 210-LU can be powered from an external DC adapter (usually supplied)
or, from a +5v DC source on a Molex connector (same as those inside PC’s used
on hard disk drives).
Both connectors are present, giving you a choice of the way you supply power
to the unit (but do not connect both power supplies at the same time).
The external Power Adapter (wall mount) is 6 volt DC. Always use the adapters
that came with the device, or replace it with an identical unit.
The Molex connector is shown below. Note that you can use the PC power supply
for this connection.
- Pin 1 = No Connections in the unit
- Pin 2 & 3 = Common (ground)
- Pin 4 = +5v DC (regulated)
