Introduction

About this Manual

This manual discusses how to install, configure, and operate the Extron USP 405

universal signal processor and how to operate the optional IR 801 infrared

remote control (part #70-152-01).

Throughout this manual the terms “USP”, “universal signal processor”, and

“signal processor” are used interchangeably to refer to the same product.

About the USP 405

What is the USP 405?

The USP 405 is a high performance digital video scaler, scan converter,

standards converter, and transcoder. It accepts a wide range of video input

signals and converts them, up or down, into a number of different signal formats

to meet the video requirements of virtually any system. The USP 405 offers 35

output rates, including HDTV, and provides scaling solutions for boardrooms

and conference rooms, as well as rental and staging applications.

The USP 405 is available in four configurations: a basic model (part #60-369-01),

which does not include the serial digital interface (SDI); a model that includes

SDI input (part #60-369-02); a model that includes SDI output (part #60-369-03);

and a model that includes both SDI input and SDI output (part #60-369-04).

The USP accepts computer video (RGB), component video, S-video, composite

video, and SDI input (optional).

To enable superior scaling performance, the USP 405 features several of Extron’s

patent-pending technologies, including Dynamic Motion Interpolation (DMI™),

and 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection. DMI is an advanced motion detection and

compensation method that enables image enhancement with no loss of image

fidelity.

Controlling the USP 405 universal signal processor

The USP 405 can be controlled using one or more of the following means:

• The front panel controls

• A computer, a third party control system, or any other device that can send and

receive the serial communications through the RS-232 port. Extron’s

Simple Instruction Set™ (SIS™) is a set of simple keystroke commands that

can be used with any such devices, and Extron’s control software for

Windows provides a graphical interface for controlling the signal

processor from a computer.

• The optional IR 801 remote control, which has most of the front panel controls

• Contact closure control

Features and Options

RGB video — One 15-pin HD connector for RGB/computer video

RGB/HDTV video — Five BNC connectors for HDTV R-Y, B-Y, Y

(component) video

Four ways to control the USP 405 — The USP’s front panel, a computer or other

RS-232 control device, the optional IR 801 remote control, or contact closure

control can all be used to control the USP.

Scaled outputs — The USP 405 offers 35 different output rates.

RS-232 configuration — The USP 405 can be configured by using the Extron

control software for Windows, or by using a third party control system.

Freeze button — Each input of the USP 405 can be frozen using the Freeze

button. Once the input is frozen, the input signal can be removed and the

frozen output image is not lost.

Quad-standard video decoding capability — The USP 405 uses a digital, four-

line adaptive comb filter to decode NTSC 3.58, NTSC 4.43, PAL, and

SECAM signals.

Accu-RATE Frame Lock^™— The patented Extron Accu-RATE Frame Lock™

eliminates artifacts from scaled motion video by eliminating frame rate

conversion. It locks the output frame rate to the input frame rate of the

active input. The result is a switching system that eliminates image tears

and other artifacts from motion video.

Dynamic Motion Interpolation^™(DMI^™) — This video processing technique is

an advanced motion prediction and compensation method that treats

motion content and still content with different algorithms to yield high

fidelity images.

3:2 pulldown detection for NTSC and 2:2 film detection for PAL video

sources — These advanced film mode processing features help maximize

image detail and sharpness for video sources that originated from film.

When film is converted to NTSC video, the film frame rate has to be

matched to the video frame rate in a process called 3:2 pulldown. Jaggies

and other image artifacts can result if conventional deinterlacing

techniques are used on film-source video. The USP 405’s advanced film

mode processing recognizes signals that originated from film. The USP

405 then applies video processing algorithms that optimize the conversion

of video that was made with the 3:2 pulldown process. This results in

richly detailed images with sharply defined lines. A similar process is

used for PAL film-source video.

Versatile mounting options — The UPS 405 can be rack mounted, or it can be

placed on a table or other furniture. Rubber feet and rack mounting

hardware are included.

Genlock and Vertical Interval Switching

For vertical interval switching (to allow clean switching between signals from

several devices during the vertical blanking period of each signal), a composite

sync signal can be applied at the Genlock In connector, and can also be passed to

another device via the Genlock Out connector.

If the genlock connectors are used only for vertical interval switching, no

horizontal or subcarrier phase adjustments are required.

Genlock setup

Genlock differs from simple vertical interval switching in that an external device

(a black burst generator) generates a reference sync signal for the system, and

every device that uses that signal has its output signal’s horizontal and

subcarrier phases adjusted to exactly match that of the generator. This allows

precise timing and full synchronization. Genlocked systems produce cleaner

switches between inputs than do those without this type of synchronization.

2-8

USP 405 • Installation and Operation

An oscilloscope is required for genlock setup, and a vectorscope is

recommended. Waveform monitors of types other than a vectorscope may give

the appearance that timing is adjusted correctly when it is 180 degrees out of

phase. This results in incorrect colors or picture artifacts.

To synchronize the USP 405’s video output with a genlock signal, follow these

steps:

All equipment in the system must be powered up and turned on for at least

15 to 20 minutes before genlock setup adjustments can be made and before

the equipment is used in a genlocked application.

1. Power up and turn on all the devices that will use the genlock signal.

The devices must be on for at least 15 to 20 minutes before proceeding

with any adjustments.

2. Connect the active timing source signal to the Genlock In connector on

the rear panel.

3. Connect the video input signals to the USP 405, as described

previously in this chapter.

4. Connect the oscilloscope (“scope”) probe A to the Genlock Out

connector. This provides the scope’s reference signal. In order to avoid

altering the genlock signal, use the cabling configuration that will be

used in the installation. Either connect the genlock signal cable from

the scope to the next device in the system to be timed, or provide 75

ohm termination at the scope’s genlock output.

5. Connect scope probe B to the USP 405’s composite video output

6. Using the instructions for the scope you are using, set the scope to view

the signal’s horizontal phases. Adjust the horizontal phase by rotating

the horizontal Adjust ( ) knob (see the “Genlock Menu” section in

this chapter). Adjust the horizontal phase until there is no (0°)

difference between the composite video output’s horizontal sync phase

and the genlock signal’s horizontal phase. See the “Oscilloscope

displays” section in this chapter.

7. Set the scope to view the subcarrier signals. Adjust the sub phase by

rotating the vertical Adjust ( ) knob until there is a zero phase

difference between the genlock signal and the NTSC/PAL output (see

the “Genlock menu” section in this chapter).

8. View the horizontal phases again. If the phase difference is not zero,

repeat steps 6 and 7 until the settings do not change.

9. Once the settings are stable, disconnect the oscilloscope, and reconnect

the genlock cables.

10. Check the display(s) for proper colors and for undesirable artifacts in

the image(s). Make adjustments as necessary.

11. If other USP 405s are part of this genlock daisy chain, connect the

oscilloscope to each device, and repeat this procedure.

Oscilloscope displays

What you see on the oscilloscope while adjusting the USP 405 to match the

genlock signal depends on the type of signal used, the type of oscilloscope, and

the procedure the scope requires. This section shows some examples of

oscilloscope displays.

The following diagram shows the genlock input signal (top) and an out-of-

alignment NTSC composite sync output signal (bottom) displayed on a

waveform monitor to check for alignment. When the phases are aligned, the

wave peaks on the bottom waveform should line up with those in the reference

signal above it.

Superimposed waveforms

With this method there is no way to know if the signals are 180º out of phase. A

delayed sweep on a time-based scope would allow a more accurate display of the

input and output signal phase relationships.

A vectorscope is more accurate than a waveform monitor. The following diagram

shows an example of a vectorscope display when the horizontal phase is

adjusted to align it with the burst (genlock) vector. Adjust the horizontal phase

by rotating the horizontal Adjust ( ) knob until the difference between the two

vectors is 0º. This example shows black burst only (with no color). The burst

vector is pointing to the left from the center.

Optimizing the System

For optimal performance, follow the steps in this section in order when setting

up the USP 405 and its input and output devices.

Setting up a DVD source

To get the best results when using a DVD as a video source, Extron recommends

that the DVD player itself be set up to output an aspect ratio of 16:9 and not 4:3.

Because all DVDs are mastered as 16:9, having them set up for anything else will

cause the player to internally scale and compress the signal. This scaling/

compression by the DVD player defeats the advantage of having 3-2 pulldown

detection in the USP 405.

To change the output aspect ratio of most DVD players,

Enter the DVD player’s Setup or Action menu while the disc is stopped.

Select a 16:9 aspect ratio.

“X” refers to the input (2 to 5) and “Y” refers to the preset (1 to 3). The absence of

any saved presets does not display the LCD message for the missing preset.

* The actual presets will depend on what presets (1, 2, or 3) have been saved for

an input. For example, if only presets 1 and 3 are available, the sequential

looping of the presets as the input button is repeatedly pressed will be:

preset 1, preset 3, preset 1, preset 3, and so forth.

Presets are valid only for the input/output resolutions under which they

were saved.

Edge Smoothing submenu

This submenu features edge smoothing. Edge smoothing smooths the edges of a

picture by minimizing the differences between pixels.

Using either the horizontal Adjust ( ) or vertical Adjust ( ) knob, select either

“On” or “Off”. The default is “On”.

Encoder Filter submenu

This submenu adjusts the sharpness of the displayed image. The sharpness can

be set from 0 to 12 (maximum). The default is 6.

Using either the horizontal Adjust ( ) or vertical Adjust ( ) knob, adjust the

filter for the desired sharpness level.

Blue Mode submenu

To aid in setup of the USP 405’s color and tint, the Blue Mode can be set from this

submenu to “On” so that only sync and blue video signals will be passed to the

display. Use either the horizontal Adjust ( ) or vertical Adjust ( ) knob to

specify this mode. The default is “Off”.

Test Pattern submenu

In this submenu, several test patterns are provided to help adjust the display

device for color, convergence, focus, resolution, contrast, grey scale, and aspect

ratio. Use either the horizontal Adjust ( ) or vertical Adjust ( ) knob to select a

test pattern. The options are: Off, Color Bars, Crosshatch, 4 x 4 Crosshatch,

Grayscale, Crop, Alternating Pixel, Film Aspect Ratios 1.78/1.85/2.35, and

Ramp. The default is “Off”.

The Alternating Pixel and Ramp test patterns are not available for NTSC or

PAL output rates. If one of these patterns is on when the output rate is

switched to NTSC or PAL, the test pattern changes to color bars.

Top and Bottom Blanking submenu

To remove noise or extraneous material such as closed captioning, remove scan

lines at either the top or bottom of the screen by adjusting the top blanking or

bottom blanking. Rotate the horizontal Adjust ( ) knob to adjust the top

blanking from 0 to 237 lines. The default is 0. Rotate the vertical Adjust ( ) knob

to adjust the bottom blanking from 0 to 237 lines. The default is 0.

RGB Delay (Triple-Action Switching^™) submenu

With Triple-Action Switching, the USP 405 switches to the new sync signal

before switching RGB (video) signals. That allows the display device to adjust to

the new sync timing during a brief delay before displaying the new picture,

which will appear without glitches. Triple-Action Switching is also known as

video mute switching. When the USP 405 is outputting a low resolution video

signal (PAL /NTSC), the RGB delay setting also adjusts the interval that the

video is muted.

Use the horizontal Adjust ( ) knob or vertical Adjust ( ) knob to select the

blanking period (RGB delay time) from 0 seconds to 5 seconds in 0.1 second

steps. The default is 0.7 seconds.

Enhanced mode submenu

When the Enhanced mode is set “On”, automatic gain control of the video input

signal is enabled. If the input signal is too weak, the signal gain will be

increased, and if the input signal level is excessive, the signal gain will be

decreased.

Enhanced mode is effective only for S-video and composite video input.

From this submenu, use either the horizontal Adjust ( ) knob or vertical Adjust

( ) knob to specify this mode as “On” or “Off”. The default is “Off”.

PAL Film mode detect (2:2 pulldown detection) submenu

For the currently selected input, set this feature to “On” if the source is PAL video

that originated in film. For standard PAL video sources, such as cameras, set this

feature to “Off” (default).

This setting is available only for inputs 2 – 5.

This feature does not apply to NTSC video sources since film mode (3:2

pulldown) is automatically detected for those signals.

From this submenu, use either the horizontal Adjust ( ) knob or vertical Adjust

( ) knob to specify this mode as “On” or “Off”.

Reset submenu

The USP 405 can be reset to the default values by depressing the Freeze button

while this submenu is active. Release the button after receiving the “Unit Reset

to Factory Defaults” message (about 2 seconds).

Troubleshooting

This section gives recommendations on what to do if you have problems

operating the USP 405, and it provides examples and descriptions for some

image problems you might encounter.

The following are some tips to help you in troubleshooting:

• Some symptoms may resemble others, so you may want to look through all of

the examples before attempting to solve the problem.

• Be prepared to backtrack in case the action taken doesn’t solve the problem.

• It may help to keep notes and sketches in case the troubleshooting process gets

lengthy. This will also give you something to discuss if you call for

technical support.

• Try simplifying the system by eliminating components that may have

introduced the problem or made it more complicated.

• For sync-related problems: Portable digital projectors are designed to operate

close to the video source. Sync problems may result from using long cables

or from improper termination. A sync adapter, such as Extron’s ASTA

(active sync termination adapter), may help solve these problems.

• For LCD and DLP projectors and plasma displays: In addition to the sync-

related information above, check the user’s manual that came with the

projector for troubleshooting tips, as well as for settings and adjustments.

Each manufacturer may have its own terms, so look for terms like “auto

setup”, “auto sync”, “pixel phase”, and “tracking”.

Serial Communication

The USP 405 can be remotely controlled via a host computer or other device

(such as a control system) attached to the rear panel RS-232 connector. The

control device (host) can use either Extron’s Simple Instruction Set (SIS)

commands or the graphical control program for Windows.

The signal processor uses a protocol of 9600 baud, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no

flow control.

The rear panel RS-232, 9-pin D connector has the following pin assignments:

RS-232 Programmer’s Guide

Host-to-signal processor communications

SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters

are required to begin or end a command sequence. When the USP 405

determines that a command is valid, it executes the command and sends a

response to the host device. All responses from the signal processor to the host

end with a carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF = ), which signals the end of

the response character string. A string is one or more characters.

It is also possible to send several SIS commands back-to-back in sequence.

Signal processor-initiated messages

When a local event such as a front panel selection or adjustment takes place, the

USP 405 signal processor responds by sending a message to the host. No

response is required from the host. The signal processor-initiated messages are

listed here (underlined).

The USP 405 sends the copyright message when it first powers on. Vx.xx is the

firmware version number.

C hn

(where

is the input number)

The USP 405 sends this response when an input is switched.

Error responses

When the USP 405 receives a valid SIS command, it executes the command and

sends a response to the host device. If the USP is unable to execute the command

because the command is invalid or it contains invalid parameters, it returns an

error response to the host.

The error response codes and their descriptions are as follows:

E01 – Invalid input channel number (the number is too large)

E10 – Invalid command

E11 – Invalid preset value

E13 – Invalid value (the number is out of range/too large)

E17 – Illegal command for this signal type

Control Software for Windows

The included Extron USP 405 Control Program for Windows offers another way

to control the USP 405 via RS-232 connection in addition to the Simple

Instruction Set commands. The control program’s graphical interface includes

the same functions as those on the signal processor’s front panel and some

additional features that are only available through the Windows-based software.

The control software is compatible with Windows 95/98, Windows NT,

Windows 2000, and Windows XP. Extron’s USP 405 Control Program is

included with the USP 405, and updates can be downloaded from the Extron

Web site

(http://www.extron.com).

Installing the software

The control program is contained on a CD.

To install the software on the hard drive:

Run SETUP.EXE from the CD.

Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.

By default the installation creates a C:\USPDDS directory, and it places two

icons (USPDDS Control Pgm and USPDDS Help) into a group or folder named

“Extron Electronics”.

Using the control program

Many items found in the USPDDS Control Program are also accessible via front

panel controls and the LCD menus described in chapter 2. Refer to

chapter 2 for details on features and settings. The USPDDS Help Program

provides information on settings and on how to use the control program itself.

These features are described in the sections of this chapter that correspond to the

parts of the control program where the features are found.

To run the control program, double-click the USPDDS Control Pgm icon in

the Extron Electronics group or folder. The Comm menu appears on

the screen.

Click on the comm port that is connected to the USP 405’s RS-232 port. The

Extron USPDDS Control Program window appears.

Labeling Buttons on the USP 405

You may wish to customize the labeling of the USP 405’s front panel buttons.

Premade templates and blank templates for the USP 405’s button label windows

are included in appendix A of this manual. However, you can easily create,

customize, and print labels for the USP’s button label windows by using the

Button-Label Generator software.

Button-Label Generator software

The Extron Button-Label Generator program (Buttons.exe) is included with the

USP 405, and it can also be downloaded from the Extron Web site

(http://www.extron.com). This program is used to create and print labels that

Setting the Output Rate Using the Per Input Feature

Using the Per Input feature, each input (1 through 5) can have a different output

rate associated with it. This feature must be initially configured through the

USP 405’s Control Program for Windows. The initial configuration is stored in

memory, and can be recalled whenever the output resolution is set to Per Input

via either RS-232, the Control Program, or the USP’s front panel controls.

As an example, the Per Input feature can be used in applications where the

USP 405 is being used in conjunction with a matrix switcher that has a variety of

inputs and outputs. See the example below. This feature allows the USP to

automatically upscale/trans-scale/scan convert the input signal, without

additional programming.

Only one process (scaling, trans-scaling, or scan conversion) can occur at

one time. For example, you cannot scale and scan convert an input at the

same time.
