RGB/EGA/CGA/MDA TO DVI(/VGA) CONVERTER

Welcome to the RGB/EGA/CGA/MDA to

DVI(/VGA) Converter Family!

Thank you for purchasing an RGB to DVI(/VGA) Converter! We appreciate your business,

and we think you’ll appreciate the many ways that your enhanced RGB Graphic system will

save you money, time, and effort.

That’s because our RGB to DVI(/VGA) Converter is all about breaking away from the

traditional model of attaching a new display to an old graphic source. You can encounter

many potential problems in connecting a flat screen to an RGB graphic source – unless you

use our RGB to DVI(/VGA) Converter products! Attach a flat screen to any graphic source

and match the output to your requirements. The RGB to DVI(/VGA) Converter – the one-stop

answer for all your RGB adapting needs! And with a special adaptor cable (not supplied as

standard), you can also attach a screen to a CGA or EGA source.

And that’s not all: With our RGB to DVI(/VGA) Converter you can also connect your

monitor to the CGA, MDA or EGA graphic source.

This manual will tell you all about your new RGB to DVI(/VGA) Converter, including how

to install, operate, and troubleshoot it. For an introduction to the Converter, see Chapter 2.

The Converter product codes covered in this manual are:

1.1 Video Input/Output

If possible, always use a DVI output to a monitor from the RGB to DVI(/VGA) Converter,

especially with flat screens. This provides the optimum video signal. If you use a VGA output

from the RGB to DVI(/VGA) Converter, it must convert the digitized data to analogue

values. Similarly, if your TFT screen uses a VGA input, it must digitize the signal from the

RGB to DVI(/VGA) Converter. In these cases, the built-in video processors (in the TFT)

must determine the resolution and pixel phase for an optimized digitization. Your RGB to

DVI(/VGA) Converter allows you to optimize the video signal manually or automatically

using its on-screen utility (see Chapter 4). If you are using a VGA input to a TFT monitor,

please follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

You may have several possible options for video source output/monitor input. If this is the

case, for the optimum video quality, please select the highest ranked available combination

from the following table:

Video Quality RGB to DVI(/VGA)

Converter input

RGB to DVI(/VGA)

Converter output

1 RGB progressive scan

RGBS progressive scan DVI

1 TTL (EGA/CGA/MDA) DVI

2 RGB video (e.g. from

SCART) interlaced DVI

3 RGB progressive scan

RGBS progressive scan VGA

3 TTL (EGA/CGA/MDA) VGA

4 RGB video (e.g. from

SCART) interlaced VGA
