Introduction, cont’d Introduction xi About the Lanciaxi The Extron Lanciaxi video scan line doubler (figure 1) is a high resolution, digital video device that converts interlaced video into non-interlaced video. The Lanciaxi converts the two field frame into a single non-interlaced frame consisting of 525 lines, producing a brighter, higher resolution picture. The additional lines provide more light output and make the overall image brighter.
PAGE 5
RS-232/Remote Control, cont’d • VGA mode — Conveniently converts video signals to 480 lines of non-interlaced VGA. This VGA output allows you to plug the Lanciaxi directly into digital display devices for RGBHV signal transmission. • Quad-standard decoder — The Lanciaxi is compatible with all international video formats including NTSC 3.58, NTSC 4.43, PAL, and SECAM. • Motion mode compensation — With motion mode compensation, the Lanciaxi virtually eliminate the jaggies commonly found in line doubled video.
PAGE 6
Introduction, cont’d • From the Extron Electronics program group, double-click on the Signal Enhancement Products Help icon. • From within the Windows-based signal enhancement program, click on the Help entry on the task bar. • From within the Windows-based signal enhancement program, press the F1 key. Contact Closure Control The RS-232 connector provides a way to select an input to the Lanciaxi using a remote contact closure device and indicate the selected input on the contact closure device.
PAGE 7
RS-232/Remote Control, cont’d Windows-Based Program Control The Signal Enhancement Control Program is Windows compatible and provides remote control of the following: Lanciaxi xi • Input selection • Video adjustments • Freeze frame control Installing the software The program is contained on a single 3.5” diskette and can be run from the floppy drive, or it can be installed and run from the hard drive. To install the software on the hard drive, run setup.

3 2 1 Connect power cords and turn on the display device and the input devices, in that order. Attach the cables. See “Rear Panel Cabling” in this chapter. Mount the Lanciaxi . See “Mounting the Lanciaxi Line Doubler” in this chapter. Turn off all of the equipment. Ensure that the video sources (DVD players, laserdisc players, VCRs, satellite receivers, or other devices), the Lanciaxi, and the output display device are all turned off and disconnected from the power source.

RS-232/Remote Control, cont’d E01 — Invalid input channel number (out of range) b. E06 — Auto-switch active (DIP switch 1 in enable position) E10 — Invalid command 2. If desired, attach a false front panel, or a second ½-rackwidth device to the other side of the shelf. 3. Attach the rack shelf to the rack using four 10-32 x ¾” bolts and four #10 beveled dress washers. E13 — Invalid value (out of range) Timeout Pauses of 10 seconds or longer between command ASCII characters result in a timeout.

Installation, cont’d RGBS video connection — For RGBS video, connect the display to the following four BNC connectors. Ensure the H/HV/SOG switch is in the HV position (see “Rear Panel Controls” in chapter four). H H/V R G B H/HV SOG V RGsB video connection — For RGsB video, connect the display to the following three BNC connectors. Ensure the H/HV/SOG switch is in the SOG position (see “Rear Panel Controls” in chapter four).
PAGE 11
RS-232/Remote Control, cont’d The Lanciaxi line doubler’s rear panel RS-232/Remote connector (figure 6) can be connected to the serial port output of a host device, such as a computer or control system, or to a remote contact closure device. Remote communications with the Lanciaxi are via Extron’s Simple Instruction Set, Extron’s Windows-based control program, or pin-programmed in the case of a contact closure device.

Operation, cont’d Operation Front Panel Controls and Indicators Figure 4 shows the controls and indicators on the front panel of the Lanciaxi line doubler. Lanciaxi xi LANCIAxi 2 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Figure 4 — Front panel controls and indicators 1 Power LED — The Power LED lights to indicate power is on. If AC voltage is available, power is on. When power is first applied, all front panel LEDs flash to indicate that the power up sequence was accomplished satisfactorily.
PAGE 13
Operation, cont’d If the image is not displayed correctly 1. If the picture bends or flags at the top of the screen, change the position of the serration pulse removal DIP switch. 2. If the output image looks too green, the Lanciaxi may be set to sync on green (the H/HV/SOG switch set to SOG). 3. If the picture hangs off the edge of the screen, adjust the H Shift control. 4.
PAGE 14
Operation, cont’d AUTO SW (auto switch mode) — X MODE (executive mode) — Disabled — Use manual input selection via the front panel Input Selection button or through the RS-232 connector. Disabled — All front panel operations are enabled. Enabled — Front panel picture control adjustments (Color, Tint, Contrast, and H Shift) are locked out. The front panel Min and Max LEDs light together to indicate that executive mode is enabled. Enabled — The input with a video signal present is selected automatically.
