NTSC out, PAL in / PAL out, etc.). The output refresh rate for NTSC signals is 60 Hz, and
50 Hz for PAL video signals.
Composite Video Input / S-Video Output - All signals are output as NTSC M or PAL.
NTSC 4.43 signals are converted to NTSC 3.58. SECAM signals are converted to PAL.
The output refresh rate for NTSC signals is 60 Hz, and 50 Hz for PAL video signals.
Installation
This section offers step-by-step instructions for installing the IN1501 bi-directional transcoder.
Note: Read the instructions carefully before initiating the installation procedure. Make sure
that there is no power connected to the unit.
1. Place / install the IN1501 at the desired location. Make sure that the unit is seated on
a flat surface or is securely installed in a standard 19” equipment rack in a 1-U rack
space (using the optional IN9080 rack shelf).
2. For Composite video to S-Video Transcoding:
• Connect the video signal from the DVD, VCR or other video source directly to
the IN1501 composite video input port (BNC female connector). The IN7200-1
Series single conductor coax cables are available in a variety of lengths.
• Connect the IN1501 S-Video output (4-pin mini-DIN female) to the display
device (featuring an S-Video input). The IN8600 Series cables are well suited
for this purpose and are available in lengths from 6’ to 100’.
3. For S-Video to Composite Video Transcoding:
• Connect the video signal from the source directly to the IN1501 S-Video input
port (4-pin mini-DIN female).
• Connect the IN1501 composite video output (BNC female connector) to the
display device.
Note: The IN1501 is designed with two separate sets of video signal conversion
circuitry, allowing both types of transcoding functions to occur simultaneously.
4. Connect power to the IN1501 using the IN9223-1 / IN9223-5 12 VAC adapter
(included). The POWER LED on the front of the unit will illuminate.
5. Turn on the video source(s) and the display device(s).
6. The three front-panel S-VIDEO OUTPUT CONTROL Buttons can be adjusted if
required to achieve optimal picture quality (see page 3).
