IN2013HR HIGH RESOLUTION VIDEO INTERFACE FOR 13W3 WORKSTATIONS IN2013HR OPERATION MANUAL
Installation and Safety Instructions For Models without a Power Switch: The socket outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be accessible. For all Models: No serviceable parts inside the unit. Refer service to a qualified technician. For Models with Internal or External Fuses: For continued protection against fire hazard, replace only with same type and rating of fuse.
1 Product Overview DESCRIPTION The IN2013HR is a high performance dedicated computer video interface for Sun, SGI, IBM PowerPC, NeXT, and other graphic workstations with 13W3 video ports. Like other INLINE interfaces, the IN2013HR performs the following functions: • Signal Splitting - allows the simultaneous connection and viewing of both the computer’s local monitor and a second output device such as a large screen data projector or presentation monitor.
2 Convenient Controls - The IN2013HR offers intuitive front panel controls for the most important signal adjustments. • Gain Control - adjusts the voltage level of the RGB components simultaneously (ensuring that gray scale is maintained), and may be used to compensate for signal loss due to long cable runs. • Sharpness Control - provides effective image enhancement for high-resolution video signals by increasing clarity and edge detail.
3 Installation This section offers step-by-step instructions for installing the IN2013HR Computer Video Interface. An Application Diagram is included on page 5. 1. Turn the Computer and Computer Monitor Off - Disconnect the computer monitor from the computer’s video port. 2. Connect the Permanently Attached IN2013HR Input Cable - to the computer’s video output port (see illustration on the right).
4 6. Connect the Local Computer Monitor - (if present) to the IN2013HR local monitor output port. Check the Monitor Emulation Dipswitch Settings on the bottom of the IN2013HR. • When Using a Local Monitor - make sure that all dipswitches in the box labeled MONITOR EMULATION are set to “0”. • If No Local Monitor is Required - using the IN9339 alignment tool (provided), gently set the monitor emulation dipswitches according to the Monitor Emulation Dipswitch Chart provided on page 9.

6 Front Panel Controls The IN2013HR features fully automatic operation, however, the interface offers several external controls that allow users to optimize the unit’s performance to meet the needs of specialized applications. Gain, sharpness and horizontal position control adjustments are located on the front of the IN2013HR. Turning the adjustments clockwise will increase the value, and counterclockwise will decrease it. Each control has an adjustment range of 15 turns.
7 Horizontal Position Control Enable / Disable The factory default setting is horizontal position control enabled. In rare cases (depending on the design of the display device sync circuitry), you may have to disable the horizontal position control to achieve a solid image on the display device. The horizontal position control may be enabled or disabled by setting the dipswitch 1 in SWITCH Bank 1 as indicated in the chart at the bottom of the page.
8 OUTPUT SIGNAL FORMAT SELECTION Output Format: Automatic Sense Mode (Dipswitch 5 = 1) In factory default configuration, the IN2013HR automatically senses the number of cables connected to the output BNC connectors and selects an appropriate output signal format. LED indicators located next to the V/Sync, H/Comp Sync and Green output BNCs (on the back of the interface) provide clear visual confirmation of the current output sync format.
9 SWITCH 2 (MONITOR EMULATION) The IN2013HR includes a bank of 10 dipswitches (SWITCH 2) on the bottom side of the interface for monitor emulation. Setting the dipswitches to the appropriate positions allows the unit to emulate the appropriate sense signals, thus setting the video card to the desired frequency, refresh rate and resolution, even without a local monitor. When configured properly, the interface can emulate virtually any type of monitor.

12 Problem: image. Solution 1: Check the dipswitch settings to make sure the unit is outputting a sync format that is compatible with the display device. For most applications the default dipswitch settings will work best (see page 7). Solution 2: The RGB cable may have a bad sync line. Try switching connections on the output to verify that the bad color’s cable is OK (Example: If there is no red, try running the green output through the red cable and see if green is displayed or not.
