DSC 3G-HD A Scaler • Setup Guide  
The Extron DSC 3G-HD A is a 3G-SDI to HDMI scaler that converts 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, and SD-SDI signals to HDMI. It accepts  
and scales SMPTE video resolutions from 480i and 576i up to 1080p @ 60 Hz and 2K, and offers multiple output rates up to  
1920x1200, including HDTV 1080p/60 and 2k. Stereo audio embedding and an SDI input loop-through are also provided.  
This setup guide provides step-by-step instructions for an experienced user to set up and configure a DSC 3G-HD A. It covers  
how to perform basic operations using the front panel controls and selected Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands.  
NOTE: For full installation, configuration, menus, connector wiring, and operation details, see the DSC 3G-HD A and  
DSC HD-3G A User Guide, available at www.extron.com.
