INTRODUCTION 1-1. THE SQD200 OPERATING MODE Before you start setting up your SQD200 for the first time, be sure you know exactly what you want to do with it. The SQD200 offers a one operating mode, which results in a versatile video production tool for live event staging and fixed installation applications. * NOTE * : We recommend resetting the device to its default values every time you set up your shows or events (see the “Operating The SQD200” chapter).
1-2. USEFUL TERMS AND DEFINITIONS BACKGROUND: a Background is a source, typically originating from a computer. SQD200 enables you to work with live or still (frame) background sources - visually behind all other sources. LAYER: a Layer is an image display element (such as a PIP window, Key, Logo(s) or Background) that has an associated visual priority — either in front of or behind another layer.

CONNECTING THE SQD200 3-1. CONNECTING THE SMART QUAD (SQD200) The SQD200 can be set up with up to 11 different sources, and will drive up to 2 digital DVI-D sources, 2 SDSDI sources and 7 analog computer/video sources simultaneously. The versatility of the SQD200 will allow for almost any event configuration and cater for all your projection needs. The intuitive rear panel of the SQD200 will let you set up for the first time quickly and easily. Here is an example of a typical SQD200 setup.
3-2. THE SQD200 REAR PANEL Overview The SQD200 rear panel is equipped with 11 universal digital and analog inputs. Inputs #1 through #5 (3) are universal analog inputs. Inputs #6 & #7 share a DVI-D signal and a universal analog signal (plug the shipped Analog Way DVI/HD15 adaptor cable to use DVI-D and analog signals simultaneously).
Inputs #1 to #7 UNIVERSAL COMPUTER & VIDEO INPUTS: Universal Inputs accept computer sources (RGBHV, RGBS, and RGsB (SOG) signals), standard TV/VIDEO sources (Composite video, S.VIDEO), Component video (YUV, RGBS & RGsB (SOG)), and HDTV sources (480p, 720p & 1080i). HD15: 1 x Universal Analog input on female HD15 connector. R G B S RGBS Source COMPUTER SOURCES: The device accepts the following computer signals: RGBHV, RGB/S, and RGsB on inputs #1 to #7.
COMPONENT VIDEO SOURCES: The Component Video signal, also called YUV (Y, Pr, Pb) or BETACAM™ is widely used in broadcasting and is available on high-quality DVD players. The COMPONENT signal is transmitted with 3 coaxial cables, and also has a better quality picture than COMPOSITE and S.VIDEO signals. The COMPONENT connectors are usually RCA (x3), or BNC (x3). R G B For inputs #1 to #5: connect a HD15 to 3 x BNC cable between the HD15 connector of the device and your Component source.
Main Outputs MAIN OUTPUT: ANALOG: 1x analog output for the main display device on female HD15 connector. DIGITAL/ANALOG: 1x main output on female DVI-I connector (simultaneous analog and digital). VIDEO OUTPUT: Video Output card provides SD or HDTV formats in various signals and connectors from Composite Video to HD SDI. This output can be used to record your show by outputting the same content as the Main output.
OPERATING THE SQD200 4-1. THE SQD200 FRONT PANEL Overview The highly intuitive front panel of the SQD200 was designed by Analog Way engineers to simply and quickly meet all of your event needs. Within minutes, you will be able to enjoy its full potential and easily parameter most of its functions, without having to be an expert audio-visual engineer, leaving room for what is most important to our users: concentrating on their event.
On/Off button The [STANDBY] button allows users to put the SQD200 into sleep mode, and startup again. The [STANDBY] button does not replace the ON/OFF switch at the rear of the unit, and is implemented essentially for ease-of-use in rackmount situations. --> Hold for 3 seconds for stand-by mode Menu screen The Menu Screen of the SQD200 is the visual interface to your SQD200 menu.

To Use it: Press the selected layer ([W1] or [W2]) → Press the [EFFECT] button The effect will be immediately attached to the selected PIP.
Layer transitions & effects The SQD200 offers a wide variety of transitions between the scenes you create for your shows and events. It allows for live recall of 4 user presets, each of which you can edit at any given time. 1. Whether catering for complex event setups, or putting together intricate shows, your SQD200 will also deliver some of what you could expect from a dedicated mixer, along with its switcher and scaler capabilities. 2. In the Layer Selection section, press the [W1] button.
Frame setup menu In the frame setup menu, you have the possibility to save a frame, and the possibility to erase a stored frame: Logos/Frames menu → save Frame → Frame # Logos/Frames menu → Erase → Frame # Frames as Layer The background frame is considered as a layer and has some settings available: Transparency, Opening/Closing effect, Smooth move and Status. Those settings have to be used as Layer settings. Press [BACKGROUND FRAME] button to have access to the Layer menu settings.
Logos can also be captured and displayed with transparent areas. By adjusting the keyer in the logo capture menu, the portions of the captured area can be keyed away and captured as transparent. The menu “Cut out color” can help display which portions of the image will be captured as tranparent. * NOTE *: The cut out color is only a visual tool to help identify the transparent areas of the logo. These colored regions will not be captured but later displayed as transparent area.
Logos as Layer Logos are under the Layer rules, you will have direct access to settings by pressing the Logo Layer button. You can use the [EFFECT] button from the front panel too. Creating Presets The SQD200 allows the creation of user defined presets very easily. Any setup you have configured on screen, can be stored into one of the 4 available user presets. 1.
