In the U.S. and Canada, registering your purchase also automatically extends your warranty from 90 days to five years.
Operating Voltage & Frequency The CVP2 is supplied with a “universal” power supply that will convert 100V250V AC power to the much smaller DC power that it requires. This power is further filtered and regulated inside the unit itself. Do not replace this external power supply with anything but an exact replacement from Madrigal. Attempting to operate the CVP2 with an improper power supply can damage the unit. Such damage would not be covered under the warranty.
A Word About Installation Every effort has been made to make the Proceed CVP2 simple and straightforward to install and use. Still, the CVP2’s flexibility allows for many possible configurations. This user’s manual will document the most common of these configurations, which between them should account for 95% or more of the actual installations.
Special Design Features Congratulations on your purchase of the Proceed Component Video Processor (CVP2). We have gone to great lengths to ensure that the CVP2 remains “future-proof” even in these times of change. As a result, you will be able to enjoy the outstanding performance of the CVP2 for many years. In case you are interested in technical details, what follows is a brief outline of some of the key technologies in your new product.
Another configuration might include both traditional interlaced sources and new-format digital sources (480p, 1080i, 720p, even 1080p). In this case, the challenge is to make the most of the “legacy” sources so that watching them does not become a huge disappointment after watching HDTV signals.

2 COMPONENT INPUT 2 Component Input 2 is functionally the same as Component Input 1 except that it uses four high quality RCA connectors, which are more common in consumer-grade video products.
5 COMPOSITE INPUT 5 Any composite video signal connected to this input can be converted to high quality YPbPr component or RGsB SDTV video, depending on how the CVP2 is configured. The most common use for this input is accepting the main composite output of the AVP2. In this way, any composite source connected to the AVP2 can be converted to component video.
Caution! Do not attempt to substitute a generic telephone extension cable for the cable included with your CVP2, as they are not wired the same. If you require a longer cable, please consult with your dealer who can either order or custom-build an appropriate cable for you. 10 DC INPUT The Proceed CVP2 uses a high quality, regulated external power supply to convert the AC mains power to a smaller DC voltage prior to introducing the power to the CVP2 itself.

Troubleshooting Your Proceed CVP2 has been designed to deliver many years of satisfaction. Its flexibility requires a bit of attention when first configuring the system, but results in tremendous ease of operation in daily use. It has been our experience that most difficulties encountered with the CVP2 are due to improper initial setup. Please review the relevant portions of this manual for the details of the setup procedure.
Care and Maintenance To remove dust from the cabinet of the CVP2, use a feather duster. To remove dirt and fingerprints, we recommend isopropyl alcohol and a soft cloth. Caution! 28 Always apply the isopropyl alcohol to the soft cloth and then wipe the CVP2 with the dampened cloth. Never pour or spray even small amounts of any liquid directly on the CVP2, as doing so may allow the liquid to reach the circuitry inside the unit.
