Terms and Definitions
qÉêãë=~åÇ=aÉÑáåáíáçåë
The following terms and definitions are used throughout this guide:
•
A “Background” is an unscaled source, typically originating from a computer.
PresentationPRO-II enables you to work with one background source which
appears at the system’s lowest priority — visually in back of all other sources.
•
•
The abbreviation “BG” is also used throughout this guide for Background.
A “Key” is an electronic (and visual) process whereby one image is electronically
superimposed over another source or a background. Keys are typically used for
titles and banners.
•
•
•
A “Layer” is an image display element (such as a PIP, Key or Background) that
has an associated visual priority — either in front (or in back) of another layer.
A “LOGO” is a full screen image that is selected from one of three still frames that
you can capture with PresentationPRO-II.
A “Mixer” is the electronic circuitry that enables you to transition (and scale) PIPs
and Keys over a background. PresentationPRO-II has one internal mixer, capable
of layering either one PIP or one key.
•
•
“Operator” refers to the person who uses the system.
“PIP” refers to Picture-in-Picture, an on-screen effect in which one “scaled” picture
(typically of reduced size) is positioned over a background image. PIPs can be
reduced, enlarged, bordered, shadowed, and mixed on and off Program.
•
•
•
“Screen” and “Menu” both refer to the Touch Screen menus.
“System” refers to the PresentationPRO-II.
A “Scaler” is the electronic circuitry that enables you to reduce or enlarge source
images, thus creating PIPs and Keys that can be positioned (and transitioned).

The following topics are discussed in this section:
•

•
mêÉëÉåí~íáçåmolJff eáÖÜ=mÉêÑçêã~åÅÉ=pïáíÅÜÉê
The PresentationPRO-II is a compact switching system that simplifies the task of
supporting professional quality visual presentations, such as live events and presentations
in corporate boardrooms and church services. PresentationPRO-II is offered in two
configurations — SDI and HD.
•
The SDI Model offers eight analog inputs on HD-15 connectors, one unscaled
high-resolution DVI input for a background or Downstream Key (DSK) source,
plus one SD-SDI input.
•
The HD Model also offers eight analog inputs, one DVI input (for a background or
DSK source), plus one SD-SDI/HD-SDI input.
Each model combines an eight-input video router, Barco’s high performance proprietary
Athena scaler, and a full-featured control panel in a single integrated package. The eight
universal analog inputs accept standard component and composite analog video formats
(NTSC, PAL, SECAM), computer resolutions up to UXGA, analog HD formats including
720p, 1080i, 1080p and Plasma display resolutions.
The Barco Athena scaler features 1:1 pixel sampling, motion adaptive de-interlacing for
both standard and high definition sources, 3:2 and 2:2 pull down detection, low video delay
and aspect ratio correction. The operator can also capture and store still frames for use as
a background, DSK or LOGO source.
Each unit incorporates one analog and one DVI output, and supports output computer
resolutions up to 1600x1200, analog HDTV resolutions (including 720p and 1080p) and
Plasma display resolutions.
PresentationPRO-II uses three image layers to produce effects:
•
•
•
One unscaled live background or DSK layer (shared resource)
One scaled layer
One LOGO layer

System Overview
^=tçêÇ=^Äçìí=i~óÉêë
PresentationPRO-II is a three layer system, but because the DVI input is shared between
Background and DSK (and only one can be used at a time), the allocation of the layers is
still very flexible:
Background (DVI)

Figure 1-1. PresentationPRO-II Layers, Example 1
In the layer example above, the DVI input is used as a background, thus the DSK cannot
be used. Here, users can layer a PIP or Key over the live DVI background, and place the
full-screen LOGO on top.
In the layer example below, the DVI input is used as a DSK, thus it cannot be used as a live
background. However, if the background layer is configured as a matte color, users can
layer a PIP or Key over the matte background, use the DSK on top, and place the full-
screen LOGO at the highest priority.

System Overview
A layer is defined as an image display element (such as a background, PIP or Key) with an
associated visual priority. The mixer itself has one layer, which can be assigned to either
PIP or Key functionality.
A typical PresentationPRO-II application is illustrated below.

Wilderness
Figure 1-3. Layer Illustration — Background, Mixer and DSK
Please note the following important points:
•
•
•
•
The full screen LOGO is the highest priority layer. This image visually appears
“over” all other layers.
The Downstream Key (DSK) is the second highest priority layer. It visually
appears over the mixer and the background — but it is “under” the LOGO.
The high resolution Background is the lowest priority layer, which appears
“behind” all other layers.
Within the mixer, a PIP appears “over” the background and “under” the DSK and
LOGO. Effects include mixes, wipes, resizing, adjustable aspect ratio, borders,
drop shadows and soft edges.
•
•
Within the mixer, a Key also appears “over” the background and “under” the DSK
and LOGO. Effects include luminance key, reverse (invert) key, and color key
(graphics).
Up to eight analog inputs and one SD-SDI or HD-SDI input can be scaled to
produce PIP or Key effects.

System Overview
bÑÑÉÅí=`çãÄáå~íáçåë
This section illustrates the many (but not all) combinations of image effects that you can
create on the PresentationPRO-II. Please note:
•
•
In the following illustrations, the specific layers used in creating each effect are
labeled (e.g., PIP, Key).
The symbol ↓↑ denotes a PIP, key or DSK that can transition.
S Example: PIP ↓↑ indicates that you can dissolve a PIP up or down over a
background.
The PresentationPRO-II system provides one background, one scalable layer, a DSK and
a full screen LOGO. The LOGO, DSK and background are always unscaled.
If the DSK is in use, a live DVI background cannot be used.
This occurs because the BG/DSK Input is shared between
the DSK and the Background.

Layer Functions
Figure 2-5. Layer Functions Section
The buttons in the Layer Functions Section enable you to control the layers and effects
that transition to and from Program.
Please note the following important points:
•
The buttons are arranged from left-to-right in order of visual priority — from the
background (at the lowest priority) to the LOGO (at the highest visual priority).
•
The PresentationPRO-II system enables you to “pend” one transition at a time,
such as a PIP or Key transition, a background, DSK or LOGO transition, or a
“clear” function.
•
Because the mixer has a single scaler, you cannot transition a PIP and a Key
simultaneously. With a PIP on Program, however, you can “pend” a Key. When
TRANS is pressed, the PIP transitions off and the Key transitions on. Similarly, if
a Key is on Program, you can pend a PIP.
Remember that a live Background and the DSK are mutually
exclusive. This occurs because the BG/DSK Input is shared.
Note
Following are descriptions of each button’s function.
Background/DSK Button — press to pend either a Background or a DSK transition,
depending on how the button’s mode is configured (on the BG/DSK Input Setup Menu).

LOGO — press to pend a LOGO transition or select the LOGO source. The button blinks
when selected and the Logo Input Setup Menu appears on the Touch Screen. In
LOGO
Please note:
•
The logo is the system’s highest priority layer, to which you can assign one of
PresentationPRO-II’s three internal frame stores.
•
The LOGO layer is often used as a “black preview” function. If Black is selected
as the “type” on the Logo Input Setup menu, you can fade to black at any time by
pending a LOGO transition.
•
The logo is not a live input, and does not have an associated key signal.
All layers are maintained underneath the LOGO. For
example, if you have a PIP and a DSK on Program when you
transition to the LOGO, when you mix the LOGO off — the
previous "look" is still there.
Important
FULL SCREEN — press to take the selected (blinking) PIP or Key to full screen. In each
case, the source’s height will be used as the parameter that defines the full screen size.
FULL
SCREEN
S Example: If a source’s original dimension is 1280 x 1024, pressing FULL
SCREEN expands (or reduces) that PIP to fill the output screen vertically. If
borders are ON, they will be taken into account so that they are visible.
CLEAR — press to “pend” the removal of the currently selected (blinking) layer from
Program — in the next transition. For example, you can “clear” a PIP, Key, still frame

RESET — press to reset the current effect (e.g., PIP, Key, crop, etc.) to a nominal default
value. You can think of this function as being “context sensitive” — as it resets only the
current effect, without affecting other modifications.
RESET
S Example: If you adjust a PIP’s size, border and shadow, and wish to reset
only the border, navigate to the Border Menu and press Reset.

Safety Precautions
p~ÑÉíó=mêÉÅ~ìíáçåë=
For all PresentationPRO-II installation procedures, please observe the following important
safety and handling rules to avoid damage to yourself and the equipment:
•
•
To protect users from electric shock, ensure that the chassis connects to earth via
the ground wire provided in the AC power Cord.
The AC Socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and be easily
accessible.
råé~ÅâáåÖ=~åÇ=fåëéÉÅíáçå=
Before opening the PresentationPRO-II shipping box, inspect it for damage. If you find any
damage, notify the shipping carrier immediately for all claims adjustments. As you open
the box, compare its contents against the packing slip. If you find any shortages, contact
your sales representative.
Once you have removed all the components from their packaging and checked that all the
listed components are present, visually inspect the system to ensure there was no damage
during shipping. If there is damage, notify the shipping carrier immediately for all claims
adjustments.
páíÉ=mêÉé~ê~íáçå=
The environment in which you install your PresentationPRO-II should be clean, properly lit,
free from static, and have adequate power, ventilation, and space for all components.
o~ÅâJjçìåí=fåëí~ää~íáçå
The PresentationPRO-II chassis is designed to be rack mounted and is supplied with front
rack-mount hardware. Rear rack-mount brackets are available as a kit and are
recommended for use when units are mounted in transit cases.
The PresentationPRO-II chassis can also be used in a
“tabletop” configuration, without rack mounting.
Note
When rack mounting the PresentationPRO-II chassis, remember the following important
points:
•
•
Maximum ambient operating temperature for the unit is 40 degrees C.
Leave at least one inch of space (front and rear) to ensure that the airflow through
the fan and vent holes is not restricted.
•
When installing multiple units into a rack, distribute them evenly to prevent
hazardous conditions that may be created by uneven weight distribution.

The Input Menu is used to adjust all parameters relating to inputs. Using the menu, you
can set all of the configuration options for the selected source.
There are several ways to access the menu:
•
•
Press {INPUT} on the Home Menu.
Press PIP or KEY in the Layer Functions Section, then press an input on the
Source Selection Bus and ensure the button is blinking. If the Input
Acquisition Menu appears (because the source has not yet been saved, or
because video has not been detected), press {INPUT}.
On the Input Menu, the currently selected input is shown in the menu’s upper right corner
(e.g., SRC_3). The menu tracks the selected input, thus, if you switch inputs on the
Source Selection Bus, the menu is immediately re-assigned to the new input.
fåéìí=jÉåì=cìåÅíáçåë
The following Input Menu functions are provided:
•
Format — this line performs two functions:
~
Displays the resolution that is automatically determined by the FORCE
ACQUIRE function.
~
Enables you to set the resolution of the incoming source if desired. Once
the format is selected manually with the rotary knob, press {SELECT
FORMAT} to “accept” the selection.

for additional details regarding resolutions.
Selecting a format manually will automatically default the
Input Type. In some cases, the Input Type cannot be
changed due to the selected resolution.
Note
•
Input Type — sets the type of input connected to the PresentationPRO-II, such as
RGB, SD, HD or Composite. Available choices change depending on the
selected format. Selections include RGB, YP P , Composite/S-Video, SDI
b
r
and HD SDI.
•
•
Color Space — sets the input’s color space. Choices include SMPTE and RGB.
Note that the system will automatically set the Color Space based on the selected
Format and Input Type.
Sampling Mode — sets the sampling mode for the selected input, either 1:1 or
oversample.
~
When 1:1 Sampling is selected, the system provides pixel-for-pixel
sampling, and generally better image quality.
~
When Oversample is selected, the system performs multiple samples
for every pixel, with a resulting “softer” image.
•
•
•
•
•
Contrast — sets the input’s contrast. The adjustment range is from 75% to
125%.
Brightness — sets the input’s brightness. The adjustment range is from 75% to
125%.
Gamma — sets the input gamma, enabling you to match the gamma of the
source. The adjustment range is from 1.0 to 3.0, in 0.1 increments.
Input Sync Type — sets the type of sync used by the selected source. Choices
include H/V, CSync (composite sync), SOG (sync on green) and Auto.
Pulldown Compensation — (On/Off) This function is applicable only for
standard video (component, s-video, composite) inputs. The default mode is off.
The feature should be turned on to process video derived from film material.
•
Sync Slice <mv> — This function selects the sync comparator threshold for
RGsB (RGB with Sync on Green) or YPbPr analog component video sources.
The value ranges from 20mV to 280mV and is adjustable in steps of 10mV. The
default value is 160mV.
When PresentationPRO-II detects Macrovision® copy protection on incoming
YPbPr NTSC/PAL video, the Sync Slice value is repositioned to 60mV to account
for the reduced amplitude sync pulse.
The default Sync Slice level has been optimized for virtually
all sources that will be encountered and should rarely, if ever,
require adjustment. However, the ability to adjust the Sync
Slice level is provided to improve sync detection and
synchronization in cases of extremely noisy RGsB or YPbPr
video signals.
Note
•
Sharpness — sets the input’s sharpness. The adjustment range is from -10 (soft)
to 10 (sharp).

There are two situations in which the Input Acquisition Menu can appear:
1. After a factory reset has been performed, the Input Acquisition Menu
automatically appears when you first select a source — but prior to pressing
TRANS for the first time. As each source button is pressed, the system acquires
the video and displays the menu. The following options are available:
~
~
Press {SAVE} to save the source and display the Input Menu, or ...
Press {INPUT} to display the Input Menu without saving the source.
In this way, you can quickly acquire and save all nine inputs.
2. After TRANS has been pressed for the first time, the Input Acquisition Menu will
appear when you (a) select a source that has not been previously saved, and (b)
press TRANS to transition that source to Program. Here also, the menu is
displayed and you can save the source.
Once the source has been saved, the Input Acquisition Menu will not be shown again,
unless the system discovers that video is not present.
If you select a source and there is a video mismatch, if video is not present or if the
acquisition fails, one of the following messages will appear:

Figure 4-40. Input Source Adjustment Menu (sample)
The Input Source Adjustment Menu is virtually identical to the PIP and Key Adjustment
menus — except that the menu pertains to the source “inside” the PIP or Key, rather than
the boundaries of the PIP or Key itself. In this way, for example, a PIP can remain in its
exact location on screen, but you can scale or re-position the image inside the PIP.
To access the menu:
•
Press {SRC} from the PIP Adjustment Menu or the Crop Adjustment Menu.
The Input Source Adjustment Menu is also used to adjust
Key sources, and the menu functions are identical. The only
difference is the menu’s title: Key Source Adjustment.

fåéìí=pçìêÅÉ=^ÇàìëíãÉåí=jÉåì=cìåÅíáçåë
The following Input Source Adjustment Menu functions are provided:
•
•
•
•
H Size — adjusts the input source’s horizontal size. The “%” value indicates the
source’s size as a percentage of the original PIP or Key’s horizontal resolution.
The numeric value is the source’s width in pixels.
V Size — adjusts the input source’s vertical size. The “%” value indicates the size
as a percentage of the original PIP or Key’s vertical resolution. The numeric value
is the source’s height in pixels.
H Position — indicates the input source’s horizontal position, relative to its default
horizontal position (00) with no offset. Thus, the value 50 is 50 pixels to the right
of its default position.
V Position — indicates the input source’s vertical position, relative to its default
vertical position (00) with no offset. Thus, the value -10 is 10 pixels below its
default position.

Figure 4-47. Frame Grab Menu (sample)
The Frame Grab Menu enables you to capture still frames into the system’s three internal
frame stores. The “source” of the still frames is the system’s BG/DSK input or the scaled
inputs.
Once captured, a still frame can be assigned as the input “type” for BG, the DSK or the
LOGO source.
The three frame stores utilize PresentationPRO-II’s “temp” (temporary) memory for on-air
production. During operation, you can overwrite the memory with new captured stills as
desired — as it takes only a few seconds to capture a still. Note that stills in “temp”
memory are lost when the system is powered down.
You can also store three stills in “permanent” flash memory, which will not be lost when the
system is powered down. At bootup, the contents of flash memory is read into “temp”
memory for use on-air. It takes several minutes to save a still into permanent memory, and
this procedure should not be performed on-air. Permanent frames can also be overwritten.

Setting up the Background
pÉííáåÖ=ìé=íÜÉ=_~ÅâÖêçìåÇ
With PresentationPRO-II, you can use the DVI input, a matte color, or a still frame as the
background source. Please note:
•
•
•
The system has one DVI connector (BG/DSK) that can be used for either the
Background or the DSK — but not both simultaneously.
The BG/DSK input (along with a scaled PIP image) is the source of still frames
that can be captured and used as the background.
The function of the BG/DSK input is determined by the “Mode” line on the BG/
DSK Input Setup Menu. When set to BG, the background setup procedures
outlined below apply.
Select the procedure below for the type of background that you wish to set up:

•
mêçÖê~ããáåÖ=bafa
The EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) programming procedure is a prerequisite
for using a live DVI background or for using the DSK. The procedure guarantees proper
communications at the preferred resolution between PresentationPRO-II’s DVI input and
your external computer.
Use the following steps to program the PresentationPRO-II EDID:
1. Ensure that the PresentationPRO-II output format matches your projector’s native
2. Ensure that the computer (or external equipment) that you wish to use as a
background source is capable of supporting the selected output resolution.
3. From the HOME MENU, press {SYSTEM} > {EDID} to display the EDID DVI Input
Format Menu.
4. Note the Current line, which displays the current EDID video format that resides
in PresentationPRO-II memory. If this format is already set to the desired
resolution, no EDID programming is required. You can exit this procedure, and
continue with other background setup steps as needed.
5. If a new resolution is required, use the ADJ knob to adjust the Format to the
preferred setting at which you want to program the EDID.
6. Press {PROGRAM EDID} to program EDID with the new selected video format. A
warning message will be shown. Press {YES} to continue.
7. Once EDID programming is complete on PresentationPRO-II, power down the
external computer and power it back on.
8. On your PC’s desktop, right-click to display the Display Properties Window.
9. Select the Settings Tab, and set the resolution to match that which you just
programmed into EDID.

Scaler LOS — If there is a LOS for a video signal inside a scaler (PIP or KEY),
the video switches to black, but the scaler remains in its current size and position.
Background LOS — If there is a LOS for the background DVI input, the video

Software Upgrade Overview
pçÑíï~êÉ=réÖê~ÇÉ=lîÉêîáÉï
Firmware files for the PresentationPRO-II system are loaded into the hardware at power-
up. These files are stored in the unit’s onboard flash memory, which can be accessed by
using one of the following two methods:
•
Serial — this method is the easiest to set up and use. The PC connection is
made through the Serial 1 port on the PresentationPRO-II rear panel, in
conjunction with the “Flash Loader” utility supplied with each upgrade.
•
Ethernet — this method uses the rear panel’s Ethernet port in conjunction with a
small network consisting of a PC (or Laptop), a network hub and the
PresentationPRO-II unit. However, this method still requires a serial port to be
connected.
The Ethernet method is twice as fast as the Serial method.
Using Serial takes approximately 6 minutes, while using
Ethernet takes approximately 3 minutes.
Note
The Flash Loader utility enables you to update the Flash memory with the latest software
revision. The utility should be run from a PC’s hard drive (recommended).
Each upgrade method is discussed in the following sections:
•
