ImagePRO™ Quick Start Guide Step 1: Connect Input Sources to ImagePRO™ 1. 2. 3. Connect analog video source to the ImagePRO™ using the three universal video inputs. Connect any SDI video source to the SDI video input (ImagePRO-SDI™ and ImagePRO-HD™ only). Connect DVI video source to the DVI video input (ImagePRO-HD™ only). Step 2: Connect ImagePRO™ to Output Devices 1. 2. 3. 4. Connect Hi-res video output devices to the ImagePRO™ using the 5 BNC or HD-15 output connectors.
search order: Last configuration saved for the selected input channel, One of 64 stored configurations, any custom formats stored by the user, library formats and finally using a “best guess” algorithm matching to the closest library format. While this approach generally leads to an acceptable output image, it is strongly recommended that the user sets up a configuration file to precisely define the video parameters associated with each input.

Rack-Mount Installation ImagePROTM units are designed to be rack mounted and are supplied with front rack-mount hardware. Rear rackmount brackets are available as a kit and are recommended for use when units are mounted in transit cases. When rack mounting the unit, remember that the maximum ambient operating temperature for the unit is 40 degrees C. Leave at least one inch of space front and rear to make sure that the airflow through the fan and vent holes is not restricted.
Video Input Connections Universal Input Connectors The video input section on the ImagePROTM rear panel provides three universal inputs. Each input can accept RGB, YUV, S-Video (Y/C), or composite (NTSC, PAL or SECAM) video signals. On ImagePRO™ and ImagePRO-SDI™ Universal Inputs 1 & 2 are provided with HD-15 female connectors. On ImagePRO-HD™ Universal input 2 is provided with an HD-15 connector.
Video Output Connections Four independently buffered outputs (one five wire BNC connection, one HD-15, one S-Video, and one Composite video BNC) are provided. Both 5-wire and HD-15 outputs provide the same Video in RGB or YPbPr format. Outputs are available depending on the resolution selected. For example, RGB video at 1024x768@60Hz will be available both on the 5-wire BNC and HD-15 outputs. Likewise, NTSC Video will be available on the Composite, S-Video and SDI output connectors.
RGB/YPbPr Video Output Connect the output device to the set of BNC connectors marked R/R-Y, G/Y and B/B-Y on the output section of the ImagePRO™ rear panel S-Video (Y/C) Video Output The Y/C video output connector is a 4-Pin Mini DIN located on the rear panel of the ImagePRO™.

In addition to the twelve illuminated push buttons, the Front Panel controls also include a Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) and an adjustment knob. The operation of each menu displayed on the VFD is described in detail in the following sections of this document. Power Up Initialization Locate the power switch on the rear panel and turn the ImagePROTM ON.
Setting Ethernet with static IP addr Please wait… For ImagePRO-SDI and ImagePRO-HD units, when there is a logo image stored in non-volatile memory, the logo will be loaded into memory at this time. During this loading process, the following message will be displayed on the VFD display: Loading Logo Please wait A progress bar will be displayed on the third line of the VFD display indicating the progress of loading the logo image.
Status Display IN: OUT: After power-up or anytime none of the four menu buttons are selected, the display will show a basic status. This screen gives information about the currently selected system inputs and outputs. The input section always reflects the currently selected input channel, as determined by the input buttons. If the input channel is changed, then the input fields of this screen may change.
The user can scroll through the menu items by turning the ADJUST control knob. A pointer (>) at the left of a menu item indicates the current position of the scroll bar. When the desired menu item is reached, the user presses the SEL key to select that menu item. The sub-menu pointer (>>) at the right of a menu item indicates that a sub-menu will be displayed if that menu item is selected. The pointer at the left hand side of the display changes to a pound sign (#) indicating that a parameter is selected.
Menu Operation Setup This is the top-level menu accessed by pressing the SETUP button. Setup information can be stored in non-volatile memory within ImagePROTM and will be automatically recalled each time the unit is turned on. The contents of this menu are: SETUP > Input Output In Auto Acquire Formats Views Effects Tech Support System Factory Reset >> >> On >> >> >> >> >> >> Input Setup Submenu This menu sets all the configuration options for the selected input channel.
INPUT > Type ColorSpace Sampling Timing Adjust Contrast Brightness Color Balance Gamma Aspect Ratio Letterbox Processing Save Config Reset Config Recall Config Delete Config [val] [val] >> >> >> >> >> >> >> Indicates the current input video format in the form, Hact x Vact @ Vr Hz (i.e 1024x768@75 Hz). If the currently selected input channel and source do not have a valid input signal, the field will display “Invalid Signal”.
The Color space value allows the user to select among the possible Component Video Standards for YPbPr. For all other video types the color space is RGB and cannot be selected or changed. The default selection for YPbPr is SMPTE. The user may change this setting to BETA or M-II to allow the ImagePRO™ to correctly sample the Y, Pb and Pr components across their full dynamic range. Sampling Values for this item are: OverSample and 1:1. 1:1 is the default setting.
1:1 Sampling Overview In order to scale an image it must first be digitized. This is the process of changing the analog graphics signals (Red, TM Green, and Blue for example) into pixels stored in the ImagePRO image memory. The default mode of the TM ImagePRO is to over sample the input image producing more samples than there are in the original source material. The over sampled image is then scaled to the final output resolution.
raster box is intentionally “broken” to allow the user to view the input video behind it and align the input video to the raster box precisely. Contrast And Brightness The adjustment range is 75.0% to 125.0%. 100% is the default setting for both contrast and brightness. The Contrast and Brightness controls allow the operator to adjust the overall contrast and brightness of the image. Color Balance Submenu The menu entries depend on the current input type.
This menu allows the user to set the input signal aspect ratio. The menu is: INPUT ASPECT RATIO > Mode Ratio The Mode value is selected among the following choices: 1:1, 3:2, 4:3, 5:4, 16:9, Custom The ImagePRO will select and display the input video aspect ratio according to the input format detected. For example, computer video at 1280x1024@60Hz will default to 5:4 aspect ratio, NTSC video will default to 4:3 aspect ratio, and HDTV1080i video will default to 16:9 aspect ratio.
De-interlacing In order to process an interlaced video source, the ImagePRO circuits must first de-interlace the image. Deinterlacing is the process by which interlaced video (video where even lines are scanned during one field and odd lines are scanned during the next field) are converted to progressive format (where lines in the frame are sequentially scanned). ImagePRO utilizes Motion Adaptive De-interlacing (MAD) techniques to de-interlace most video sources.
NOTE: Configuration parameters entered in the input setup menu are saved in non-volatile memory for each input source by using the SAVE CONFIG menu item. If the SAVE CONFIG menu item is not selected, the information will not be restored upon the next system power up sequence. A filename may include up to 19 characters. In order to change the filename, scroll to the filename field and press SEL. The > sign will change to a # sign and the first character will be selected for editing.
Recall Config RECALL CONFIG > File1 Recall Config This menu allows the user to recall input configurations that were previously saved for the currently selected input format and type. Only configurations that match the current format and type will be displayed. In order to recall a configuration, press SEL. The > sign will change to #. Use the encoder knob to browse the file list. Press SEL to choose the file you wish to recall. Scroll down to Recall Config and press SEL.
Output Setup Submenu This menu is used to configure the outputs of the ImagePRO. The Output Setup Menu is illustrated below. This menu can be accessed from the SETUP MENU. OUTPUT [out_format] > Timing Adjust >> Comp/S-Vid Adj >> Sync Settings >> Underscan Colorspace Gamma Sharpness Flicker Reduce Genlock >> Save Config Reset Config NOTE: Configuration parameters entered in this menu are saved in non-volatile memory by using the SAVE CONFIG menu item.
TIMING ADJUST > H Total H Position H Active H Sync V Total V Position V Active V Sync [val] [val] [val] [val] [val] [val] [val] [val] For the Horizontal entries, the unit of measure is pixels. H Total indicates the total pixel count per line. H Position sets the offset of start of active area from H sync. H Active sets the size of the active area. H Sync sets the H sync width. For the vertical entries, the unit of measure is lines. V Total indicates the total line count per frame.
Sync Settings Submenu This menu allows the user to specify the sync types for the current output. The submenu is illustrated below: SYNC SETTINGS > Sync Out SOG/Y Serrations Equalization [val] [val] [val] [val] The Sync Out menu item selects among the five possible output sync types: CSync, +H+V, +H-V, -H+V, -H-V. The default setting is -H-V for most formats. For NTSC, PAL, RS-170 and RS-343 the default is Csync with equalizations on.
Flicker Reduce The Flicker Reduce value is n/a when the output format is non-interlaced. For interlaced formats, the range is Off (no flicker reduction) or +1 (minimum flicker reduction) through +20 (maximum flicker reduction).
GENLOCK TYPE > Type HVScLock FOR COMPOSITE OUT With ImagePRO-SDI or ImagePRO-HD units, when Genlock type HV is selected, and the ImagePRO output is interlaced, the message “FOR SDI OUT” is displayed as shown below: GENLOCK TYPE > Type FOR SDI OUT HVScLock H Phase The H Phase setting allows the output H timing to be adjusted relative to the genlock source. This selection is n/a when the genlock is V lock only. The range for H Phase is +/- one-half the H Total.
When Input Auto Acquire is On, the system will always perform a full sync acquisition on the input signal anytime the input channel is selected, the input type is changed, or the input signal changes sync rates. When Auto Acquire is Off, the system will use the last known configuration for each input channel, to the greatest extent possible. At some point, the input signal may be too far away from the saved configuration, in which case a good input lock may not be possible.
Formats Submenu This menu is used to define and save a new video format, or to edit and save a previously-defined format. These saved formats are stored in a user library, which is searched during the auto-acquisition process before the standard system library. All saved formats are available as input formats on any input channel and as output formats. A maximum of 32 custom formats may be stored.
SAVE FORMAT AS > Save The field can be selected with the SEL button. The content of the field will initially be “Format1”. Editing the string is initiated by pressing SEL with the > cursor on the editable line. At this point, the > changes to #, and a cursor will appear at the first character position of the string. Turning the knob will change the character at the cursor position.
If the user picks a name that's already in use in the user library, a confirmation menu is displayed when the user invokes the Save command: Overwrite Format? = Yes = No Pressing the SEL key will cause the existing library format to be overwritten with the new format. Pressing the ESC key will cancel the save operation and return to the previous menu. Delete Submenu This menu allows the user to delete any saved user formats from the user format library.
If the format selected for deletion is currently an Input format used by any of the input channels or is the Input format that is saved in an input configuration, the following screen will be displayed: DELETE FORMAT FAIL FORMAT IN USE/SAVED IN INPUT CHNL/CFG = Continue H,V Parameters These selections set the H and V parameters (Total, Active, Front Porch, and Sync Width). The units are in pixels for H and lines for V. The possible range for any one is determined in part by the values of the others.
Views Submenu The Views menu allows management of up to 16 stored “Views”. A View is a combination of zoom and pan settings. For example, the user may define a view that maps the entire input image to the upper left quarter of the output image. A view is defined by actually creating the settings with the Pan and Zoom buttons. Once a view is created, it may be saved (and named) in this menu. A stored view can later be recalled and applied to the currently selected input channel.
The view to delete is selected from the list of available views. Deleting a view simply resets its pan and zoom settings to their default values. A confirmation screen will appear when SEL is pressed.
Effects Submenu EFFECTS > Trans With Trans Time [val] [val] The effects menu selects the transition effect when switching between input channels. The user may select form the following selections: - Transition with Image Cut; The currently selected channel will be frozen, the new channel’s video will be acquired and cut to the Output display. - Transition with Black; The currently selected channel will fade to Black and then the new channel’s video will transition in.
Tech Support Submenu TECH SUPPORT Version Phone 866-FRI-SUPT The version displayed is the installed operating firmware version number.
System Submenu This menu allows the user to adjust the VFD Brightness and remote control setting for RS-232 or Ethernet Interfaces as illustrated below. SYSTEM > VFD Brightness RS232 >> Ethernet >> EDID DVI In Frmt >> Save System State NOTE: Configuration parameters entered in the system menu are saved in non-volatile memory by using the SAVE SYSTEM STATE menu item. If the SAVE SYSTEM STATE menu item is not selected, the information will not be restored upon the next system power up sequence.
The handshake value is selected from the following values: Off or On (CTS/RTS). The reset command restores the RS232 settings to defaults: 38400, N81, Handshake On. After connecting the PC COM port to the ImagePRO RS-232 connector the user may open a serial terminal session (Hyper-terminal, Procomm etc) and configure it to match the ImagePRO serial port settings as they are configured in this menu. At this point the ImagePRO command prompt (#) will be displayed at the terminal.
SET IP SUB GW IP nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn Valid "nnn" fields can range from 000 to 255. As with any selection line, the user must press the SEL button to begin editing the IP values. At this point, the first value is highlighted. Turning the knob moves the value through the range 0 to 9. When the desired value is found, the user presses SEL. This moves the highlight to the next value, and the process repeats. After every 3 digits, a ‘.’ will automatically be placed.
EDID DVI Input Format submenu This menu allows the user to update the ImagePRO-HD™’s EDID’s preferred resolution. NOTE: This menu is for advanced users only. Do not reprogram the EDID unless it is necessary. This menu is only available on ImagePRO-HD™. Extended Display Identification Data or EDID is a VESA standard data format that contains information about a display device and its capabilities, including the preferred as well as the allowed resolutions of the device.
ERROR! DVI INPUT AND LOOP THRU CONNS MUST BE DISCONNECTED! = Continue Press the ESC key to proceed with the non-volatile memory programming. Once no DVI source or display Device are detected, ImagePRO will proceed with programming the non-volatile memory while the following message is briefly displayed. Programming EDID Please wait . . . .
Save System State This command explicitly saves all settings in the system state submenu so they may be restored at power up. This command will also save the currently selected input channel as the default input selection upon power up. If the user wants the ImagePRO to always power up and acquire and convert an input other than input one, the user must perform a save system state command while the desired input is selected.
Test Pattern Menu This menu is invoked by pressing the TEST PAT button. TEST PATTERNS > Type Raster Box The type selection enables a test pattern or turns them off. The value choices are: Off H Ramp V Ramp 100% Col Bars 75% Col bars 16x16 Grid 32x32 Grid Burst 50% Gray Gray Steps 1 Gray Steps 2 The raster box values are On or Off. Turning this value on causes the system to turn on a one-pixel border around the output active area.
Zoom Menu This menu is invoked by pressing the ZOOM button. The default zoom amount is 100%. By selecting Amount and pressing SEL the user may increase zoom above 100% (zoom into the input Video) or decrease zoom below 100% (zoom out). Independent zoom values are maintained for each input channel. ZOOM > Amount Save View Recall View A View (certain zoom and pan settings) associated with the currently selected input channel may be saved from this menu.
