PROVIDEO CONVERTER AND VIDEO CONVERTER II

Thank you for purchasing the ProVideo Converter or Video Converter II. We

are sure you will find it to be a reliable and useful product. You now have the

ability to convert your computer monitor’s signal into a form suitable for

recording on a VCR, displaying on a conventional TV or video monitor, or

integrating into a multimedia production system. And you can do this without

installing any boards or software in your computer!

Chapters 3 and 4of this manual show you how to install and operate your

Converter. Chapter 5 gives you some guidelines on what you should (and

shouldn’t) expect from your converted computer images and explains how

to get the best quality of image display. Chapter 6 gives you tips for handling

problems that might occur with your Coverter system. Appendix A explains

what S-Video is and why it should be used as output from your Converter

whenever possible. Lastly, Appendix B shows the pinouts of all of your

Converter’s connectors.

2. Introduction

CHAPTER 3: Installation

Follow the procedure outlined in this chapter to install your ProVideo

Converter or Video Converter II.

3.1 Initial Steps

1. Disconnect your monitor from the monitor port on your computer.

2. Connect one end of the special 6-foot (1.8-m) input cable provided with

the Converter to the monitor port on your computer. (See Section 4.3.3

for more info on this cable.) Plug the other end into the appropriate

connector on the rear panel of the Converter: either the one labeled

VGA IN if you are taking VGA video from an IBM®PC or compatible

or the one labeled MAC IN if you are taking Macintosh®video from

an Apple®Macintosh. See Figures 3-1 and 3-2 on the next page.

3. If you want your monitor to continue to display, connect it to the

appropriate MONITOR output connector, either VGA OUT or

MAC OUT. See the next section for a description of this ouput.

4. Plug the output cord of the power supply provided with the Converter

into the connector labeled POWER. Plug the power supply’s input cord

into the wall outlet to provide power to the Converter. (If you ever need

an AC-line cord specific to another country, call Black Box.)

5. Connect your video equipment to one or more of the Converter’s video

outputs (refer to the next section).
