1 DESCRIPTION The IN2000 and IN2001 are universal computer video interfaces designed to work with Analog, TTL, and ECL computer video signals. Like other INLINE interfaces, the IN2000 / IN2001 carry out three primary functions: Signal Splitting - these interfaces allow for the simultaneous connection and viewing of both the computer’s local monitor and a second output device such as a large screen data projector, monitor, or color printer.
2 IN2000 AND IN2001 DIFFERENCES These two interfaces are virtually identical in function, features, and operation with only a few minor differences as detailed in the chart below: Power Supply: IN2000 External Power Adapter IN2001 Internal Power Supply Size: 1.1" H x 4.8" W x 3.27" D 2" H x 6.75" W x 4.
3 While the input connector on the IN2000/2001 looks like a standard 15 pin HD VGA connector (15 pins in three rows), this input uses proprietary pin connections to accommodate the unit’s universal design. VGA and other signals can not be attached directly to the input without the appropriate IN5100 Series loop cable. OUTPUT COMPATIBILITY The IN2000 / IN2001 output an analog video signal in the RGBS format (Red, Green, Blue, and composite sync) on four BNC connectors.
4 INSTALLATION This section offers step-by-step instructions for installing the IN2000 / IN2001. A detailed application drawing showing all equipment connections is included on the next page. 1. Turn the computer and computer monitor off. Disconnect the computer monitor (if present) from the video output port on the computer. 2. The IN5100 Series cables have a pass-through connector (Male and Female) on one end. The passthrough end is connected to the computer and local monitor.

6 HORIZONTAL POSITION CONTROL The location of the horizontal position control is diagrammed on the next page. The horizontal position control adjusts the position of the image on the data display device from left to right (it has no effect on the local computer monitor). This control adjusts through a range of 14 full knob rotations, offering very fine control over the image position. The pot emits a soft click if either extreme position is reached.

8 INTERNAL CONTROLS The IN2000 and IN2001 have been designed with several controls which may be used by qualified technicians to adjust specialized signal parameters. These controls, consisting of 10 dip switches and one adjustment pot, are infrequently used and do not require adjustment for normal daily operation. For convenience, the IN2001 has been designed with two access slots in the bottom of the unit so the case does not need to be opened to change the dip switches and adjustment pot.
9 Horizontal Blanking Control (TTL Only) The Horizontal Blanking Control functions only with TTL digital input signals. This control (location shown on Page 8) will not need to be adjusted on a regular basis. The following image symptoms may indicate that the control is misadjusted: missing background colors, horizontal dark bars across the screen, or missing foreground colors.
10 Disable Horizontal Position Control Turning Dip Switch #6 to ON disables the Horizontal Position Control. This setting should only be used with Composite Sync or Sync on Green input signals. If Switch #6 is set to ON when using input signals with separate Horizontal and Vertical syncs, the unit will not output any sync signal, causing the video projector or data monitor attached to the IN2000 / IN2001 output to loose sync and stop displaying an image.

15 The output image is very bright and overdriven looking with poor contrast. Solution 1: The loop through cable is probably being used without a local monitor and the signal is therefore unterminated. Use either a local monitor or a termination plug at the monitor loopthrough connector on the IN5100 Series cable. If this is not the problem try #2. Solution 2: Verify the gain settings on the IN2000 / IN2001 RGB gain pots. If they are set to a very high gain level, reduce the gain as required.
16 WARRANTY ♦ INLINE warrants the equipment it manufactures to be free from defects in materials and workmanship. ♦ If equipment fails because of such defects and INLINE is notified within two (2) years from the date of shipment, INLINE will, at its option, repair or replace the equipment at its plant, provided that the equipment has not been subjected to mechanical, electrical, or other abuse or modifications.
