About this Guide  
This guide contains information about the Extron DVS 510 Series of switching scalers  
with instructions for experienced installers on how to install, configure, and operate the  
equipment.  
In this guide, the terms “DVS,” “DVS 510,” and “scaler” are used interchangeably to refer  
to DVS 510 and the DVS 510 SA scalers.  
About the DVS 510 Series Scalers  
The Extron DVS 510 Series scalers are 10-input, multi-format presentation switching scalers  
that accept and scale DVI, RGB, YUVp/HDTV, YUVi, S-video, and composite video signals to  
a common, high resolution output rate. With simultaneous DVI and two analog RGB/YUV  
outputs, the DVS 510 can integrate analog and digital video devices, and HDCP compliance  
enables integration of Blu-ray Disc players and cable or satellite HD receivers. The DVS 510  
also offers flexible control options, including front panel controls, Ethernet, RS-232 or  
RS-422, and infrared (IR).  
The DVS 510 also includes 10-input stereo audio switching to accompany incoming video  
sources. Gain and attenuation adjustment is provided for each input, and the DVS 510  
provides master volume control on the front panel. Also included are bass and treble  
controls, as well as integrated audio delay to maintain audio sync with the processed video  
output.  
The DVS 510 is available in two configurations: the standard DVS 510, which offers fixed  
and variable line level audio outputs, and the DVS 510 SA, which adds an integrated stereo  
amplifier with 25 watts rms output per channel into 4 or 8 ohms.

Features  
The DVS 510 provides the following features:  
Video upscaling and downscaling — DVI, RGB computer video, high definition video,  
and standard definition video sources can all be scaled to the desired output resolution.  
The DVS 510 scaling engine provides high quality upscaling and downscaling of high  
resolution computer video signals.  
High Performance Video Processing — A high performance 30-bit scaling engine is  
able to scale standard definition video, HDTV, and RGB signals up or down in resolution.  
It accepts computer video signals up to 1920x1200 and HDTV 1080p/60. It outputs  
DVI and analog RGB or component video at selectable output rates from 640x480 to  
1920x1200 resolution and HDTV rates of up to 1080p/60.  
EDID Minder® — The Extron EDID Minder automatically manages the Extended Display  
Identification Data (EDID) for all the DVI and VGA input sources. By default, VGA and  
DVI input EDIDs match the current output resolution of the scaler. Also available is a user  
assigned mode, which allows pre-stored EDID, based on a user selected resolution, to be  
manually assigned to the sources. By maintaining continuous EDID communication with  
all sources, EDID Minder ensures that all DVI and VGA sources power up properly and  
maintain their video outputs whether or not they are actively connected to the display  
device through the scaler outputs.  
Inputs — The DVS 510 has two composite video inputs on BNC connectors, two  
S-video inputs on 4-pin mini DIN connectors, two RGB/YUV inputs on 15-pin HD  
connectors, and two digital and two analog RGB/YUV inputs on DVI-I connectors. Stereo  
balanced and unbalanced audio for each input is provided on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive  
screw connectors  
Outputs — The DVS 510 has a scaled DVI-D video output on a DVI-I connector, two  
scaled RGB/YUV outputs on 15-pin HD connectors, and two audio outputs (one fixed  
and one variable) providing balanced and unbalanced stereo audio on 3.5 mm 5-pole  
captive screw connectors. The DVS 510 SA also has an amplified output on a 5 mm,  
4-pole captive screw connector.  
Simultaneous DVI and analog RGB or HD component video outputs — A DVI-D  
and two analog RGB/YUV outputs are provided for driving up to three display devices.  
Selectable output rates — Available output rates include computer video up to  
1920x1200, HDTV rates up to 1080p/60, and 2048x1080.  
HDCP compliance — The DVS 510 fully supports HDCP-encrypted signals.  
Active HDCP verification — The DVS 510 provides real-time verification of HDCP  
status for each DVI input and output. This allows for quick signal and HDCP verification  
through RS-232/RS-422 or Ethernet.  
HDCP Visual Confirmation — The DVS 510 outputs a full-screen green signal and an  
on-screen message when an HDCP compliant source is routed to a non-HDCP compliant  
display, providing immediate visual confirmation that protected content cannot be  
viewed on the selected display.  
Image freeze control — A live image can be frozen through RS-232 or RS-422 serial  
control and through Ethernet control.  
Auto-Image™ setup — Enables the DVS 510 to automatically analyze the incoming  
video signal for each input and adjust sizing, centering, and filtering to optimize image  
quality. This can save time and effort in fine tuning displayed images.  
Auto memories — Enables the DVS 510 to store size, position, and picture settings  
based on the incoming signal. When the same signal is detected again, these image  
settings are recalled from memory.

PIP (picture-in-picture) — Allows a video source to be displayed within a high  
resolution image, or vice versa. Audio switching can be set to follow either the main  
or PIP window.  
Glitch-free switching — Switching between sources occurs without distortions or  
glitches with selectable cut or fade-to-black transitions.  
Customizable front panel control buttons — The tri-colored, backlit pushbuttons  
on the front panel can be custom-labeled.  
Power Save Mode — The DVS 510 can be set to mute video and sync output to  
the display device when no active input signal is detected. This allows the projector  
or flat-panel display to automatically enter into standby mode to save energy and  
enhance lamp or panel life.  
HDMI signals support — When used with optional Extron HDMI-DVI adapters, the  
DVI inputs and output on the DVS 510 are compatible with HDMI. The DVS 510 fully  
passes audio and auxiliary data as part of the HDMI signal, ensuring audio and video  
compatibility with downstream HDMI-equipped devices.  
Audio switching and output volume control — The DVS 510 features audio  
switching for 10 stereo balanced or unbalanced input sources, and provides master  
volume control and muting as well as bass and treble controls. Fixed and variable line  
level outputs are available, and each output can be balanced or unbalanced. Stereo  
input signals can be output as dual mono.  
Audio or video breakaway — Lets you break an audio signal away from its  
corresponding video signal and route it to the audio outputs, allowing the audio  
channels to be operated as a separate scaler.  
Integrated audio delay — Delays the audio output automatically to compensate for  
latency introduced by the video processing.  
Amplifier (DVS 510 SA only) — The DVS 510 SA has a stereo power amplifier  
with 25 watts rms per channel into 4 or 8 ohms. The Class D amplifier design  
includes CDRS™ – Class D Ripple Suppression, an Extron patented technology that  
provides a smooth, clean audio waveform and an improvement in signal fidelity over  
conventional Class D amplifier designs. CDRS eliminates the high frequency switching  
ripple characteristic of Class D amplifiers, a source of RF emissions that can interfere  
with sensitive AV equipment such as wireless microphones.  
The DVS 510 SA includes technology for the integrated amplifier that detects the  
onset of clipping by comparing input and output signals. Gain is reduced with a slow  
attack and fast release to eliminate clipping and protects the speakers from clipping  
distortion.  
Picture controls — Brightness, contrast, color, tint, detail, horizontal and vertical  
positioning, sizing, and zoom can be set. 16 user memory presets are available for  
each input to store all image settings.  
Automatic 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection — Advanced film mode processing  
techniques help maximize image detail and sharpness for NTSC, PAL, and HDTV 1080i  
sources that originated from film.  
Motion adaptive 1080i deinterlacing — High performance deinterlacing is  
provided for 1080i signals from HD sources, including cable or satellite set-top devices,  
delivering optimized image quality through advanced motion compensation.  
Aspect ratio control — The output can be designated to meet a specific aspect ratio  
requirement so that the image fills the screen, or is displayed with compensation for  
the native aspect ratio of the source.  
Quad standard video decoding — A digital, four-line adaptive comb filter decodes  
NTSC 3.58, NTSC 4.43, PAL, and SECAM for integration into systems worldwide.

field, 4 x 4 crosshatch, and four aspect ratio patterns (1.33, 1.78, 1.85, and 2.35).  
Front panel security lockout (executive mode) — When enabled, locks out all front  
panel functions except for input selection (all functions remain available through RS-232,  
RS-422, or IR remote control).  
Optional IR remote control — The optional Extron IR 904 handheld remote control  
provides an additional method of input source switching, picture-in-picture, and direct  
access to picture adjustments.  
Ethernet monitoring and control — The DVS 510 can be controlled and proactively  
monitored over a LAN, WAN, or the Internet. Embedded web pages are included for  
such common functions as input switching, volume control, and system configuration.  
RS-232 and RS-422 control — The DVS 510 can be controlled and configured via  
Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) commands, a set of basic ASCII code commands that allow  
for quick and easy programming via RS-232 or RS-422.  
Windows-based configuration and control software — The Signal Processing  
Products Control Program (SPPCP) can be used to configure and control the DVS 510 via  
RS-232, RS-422, or Ethernet.  
Rack-mountable 2U, full rack width metal enclosure

Wiring the Amplified Audio Port (DVS 510 SA Only)  
To connect speakers to the DVS 510 SA built-in amplifier, terminate the speaker cable as  
follows:  
1. Strip the end of the cable 3/16 inches (5 mm).  
CAUTIONS: The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process is critical.  
The ideal length is 3/16 inches (5 mm). If the exposed portion is  
longer, the wires may touch, causing a short circuit between them. If  
the exposed wires are shorter, they can be easily pulled out, even if  
tightly fastened by the captive screws.  
Do not tin the wires. Tinned wire does not hold its shape and can  
become loose over time.  
2. Secure the wires into the supplied 4-pole captive screw connector.  
CAUTION: Do not short the + and - outputs to each other because this will damage  
the amplifier.  
The following table shows which speaker wires to connect to the positive and negative  
pins of the Amplified output connector.

a Input Buttons — Press the desired input button to select an input and switch it to  
the current output. The visual effect accompanying the switch (switch effect) can be  
a cut or a fade, depending on the selection (see “Advanced Configuration Menu”  
on page 29). With front panel input selection, audio always follows (switches with) the  
front panel video selection. (Video and audio breakaway switching are available only via  
SIS commands [see the “Remote Configuration and Control” section, beginning on  
page 47]).  
Signal types: The input buttons listed below select connected sources that support  
the following signal types:  
1 and 2: Composite  
3 and 4: S-video  
5, 6, 7, and 9: RGB (includes RGBHV, RGBS, RGBcvS, and RGsB) or component  
video (YUVp/HDTV or YUVi)  
8 and 10: DVI  
Input button lighting: When an input button is pressed, it lights amber unless  
the DVS is in picture-in-picture (PIP) mode (see “Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode”  
on page 18 for more information). If the audio is broken away (switched separately  
from the video), the button for the selected video input lights green and the button  
for the selected audio input lights red.  
Auto-Image: If an input button is held for 3 seconds, the Auto-Image feature is  
activated for that input, sizing and centering the selected image to fill the screen  
(see “Auto Image submenu” on page 30).  
Input buttons in PIP mode: If the picture-in-picture (PIP) feature is enabled, the  
input buttons select an input for either the background (primary) window or the PIP  
(secondary) window. The primary input button lights amber and the secondary (PIP)  
input button lights green. If the PIP feature is turned off, the input buttons select  
the main output only, and no input button lights green.  
If the PIP feature is on when an input is selected, the audio associated with that  
input in the PIP window is muted. The audio does not become unmuted until either:  
It is swapped to the main window.  
An SIS “Audio follow” command has been issued to configure the DVS to  
make the audio follow the PIP window.  
(See “Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode” for more information.)  
b PIP control buttons — When PIP is enabled, a secondary image from a second source  
appears on the screen in front of the main image, in a previously selected size and  
position. The default size of the PIP window is one-fourth screen and it is positioned in  
the lower-right corner of the display.  
The following two buttons control the picture-in-picture (PIP) function:  
PIP On/Off button: Turns PIP mode on and off (toggles between showing and  
hiding the picture-in-picture on the display). This button lights when the DVS is in  
PIP mode.  
PIP Swap button: Toggles the primary (main or background) and secondary (PIP)  
pictures between the main image and the PIP window.  
(See “Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode” for more information on the picture-in-picture  
function.)

position, brightness, range of dark and light values (contrast), color, tint, detail, zoom  
(magnify or reduce), and pan. When one of these buttons is pressed, it lights amber.  
NOTE: When PIP mode is enabled, all picture control adjustments affect only the PIP  
window.  
(See “Picture Controls” on page 36 for details on these button functions.)  
d LCD screen — Displays messages, menu information, and your selections from  
menus or control buttons (see “Menus on the LCD Screen” on page 20 for more  
information).  
e Menu navigation buttons — Press Menu to access the DVS menu system and step  
through the menus. From each menu, press Next to step through the submenus (see  
Menus on the LCD Screen” for details).  
f Adjust knobs — Rotate these horizontal ([) and vertical ({) knobs to scroll through  
submenu and picture control options and make adjustments.  
g Volume knob and indicator LEDs Turn this knob to adjust the volume on the input  
that is currently selected. The three LEDs, labeled Min, Mid, and Max, light incrementally  
in bottom to top order to indicate the current volume level. The Max LED (top) is red;  
the others are green (see “Volume Control” on page 39 for details on these controls).  
h Config port — This configuration port on a 2.5 mm TRS connector is an alternative to  
the RS232 port on the DVS rear panel. (For a description of the rear panel RS232 port,  
see “Rear Panel” on page 7).  
NOTE: This port supports RS-232 communication only. Only the rear panel RS232  
port supports both RS-232 and RS-422.  
Both of the DVS serial ports can be used for system configuration and control.  
Instructions are received through these ports from the computer via SIS commands or  
the Signal Processing Products Control Program. Both serial ports can be active at the  
same time.  
The default protocol for this configuration port is:  
9600 baud  
No parity  
8 data bits  
1 stop bit  
No flow control  
An optional 2.5 mm TRS configuration cable (part number 70-335-01) is available from  
Extron and can be used to connect your computer to this port. (See “Connecting to  
the RS-232 Config Port (Front Panel)” on page 11 for the configuration and pin  
assignments for this cable.)  
i Infrared sensor — This sensor receives infrared (IR) signals from the IR 904 remote  
control (see “Using the Optional IR 904 Remote Control” on page 43 for details).

Powering On  
Apply power to the DVS by connecting the provided IEC power cord from the rear panel  
power connector to an AC power source. The scaler performs a self-test during which all  
the front panel buttons blink red, then green, then amber. At the same time, the initial two  
power-up screens are displayed on the LCD screen. At the completion of the self-test, all  
button lights turn off except for the previously selected Input button (Input 1 by default) and  
the Menu and Next buttons, all of which continue to be lit amber. If picture-in-picture (PIP)  
mode was enabled previously, the input button for the PIP source and the PIP On/Off button  
light green. The LCD panel displays the default cycle.  
If an error occurs during the self-test, the DVS locks up and does not operate. If this  
occurs, call the Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline. (See the rear cover for contact  
information in your area.)  
When power is first applied to the DVS, the LCD panel displays InitializingPlease  
Wait..., then Extron,DVS510Vn.nn, where n.nn is the current firmware version. If  
the DVS self-test completes successfully, the default cycle begins, in which the LCD panel  
display alternates between the current output resolution and refresh rates, and the currently  
selected input number, signal type, and horizontal and vertical frequencies. These two  
screens continue to cycle on the screen when the menu system is not in use.  
The flow diagram below shows the order in which the screens appear at power-up and in  
the default cycle.

Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode  
The picture-in-picture (PIP) feature lets the DVS display two image sources on the screen  
simultaneously.  
One of these image sources must be low-resolution (composite, S-video, YUVi, or RGBcvS)  
video, while the other must be high resolution (YUVp/HDTV, RGB, or DVI) video.  
High resolution — Inputs 5 through 7 and 9 if they are configured as RGB (RGBHV,  
RGBS or RGsB) or high-resolution component video YUVp/HDTV; inputs 8 and 10 (DVI).  
Low resolution — Inputs 1 through 4; and 5, 6, 7, and 9 when they are configured as  
component video YUVi or RGBcvS  
The PIP function toggles between the selected input in each resolution group. The PIP  
function cannot toggle between two inputs in the same resolution group.  
The following table shows the resolution of each input:

By default, the PIP image is one-fourth the size of the main window and is positioned in the  
lower-right corner of the display.  
NOTE: The size of the PIP window can be set in the menu system (see “Enabling  
PIP Mode,” on the next page). The position of the PIP window is set with the  
centering adjustment (see “Picture Controls” on page 36 for details).  
When PIP mode is active:  
The button for the main window input lights amber. The PIP input button lights green.  
All picture controls configure only the image in the PIP window. The main window  
settings cannot be modified while the PIP window is active. The PIP size and position  
can be adjusted with the same front panel controls or SIS commands used to adjust the  
main image.  
The parameters of the PIP window are adjustable from the front panel menus or by SIS  
commands only.  
Any change in configuration (except sizing or positioning) of the PIP window is saved to  
that input even after the PIP mode is no longer active.  
The PIP window input is shown in the default cycle as the current input.  
If the PIP window source is not active, the PIP mode exits until an active signal is  
detected. When the main window source is removed, a black background is displayed.  
Audio and video breakaway are not allowed.

Enabling PIP Mode  
To enable picture-in-picture mode:  
1. Select an input for the main window. The selected input button lights amber.  
2. Configure the input for the main window as desired (see “Input Configuration  
Menu” on page 23 and “Picture Controls” on page 36).  
3. Press the PIP On/Off button to activate the PIP mode.  
The input button for the PIP window lights green.  
NOTE: The first time the DVS is placed in PIP mode, by default input 1 is  
selected if the main input is high resolution, and input 5 is selected if the  
main input is low resolution. If PIP mode has been enabled previously,  
the input in the correct resolution category that was the PIP input most  
recently is selected.  
The PIP window appears on the screen in its previously displayed size and position.  
(On first activation, the PIP window appears in the default size and position.)  
4. Configure the PIP window as desired, using the same methods you used to configure  
the main window in step 2.  
You can also enable PIP via SIS commands (see the Picture-in-picture [PIP] commands  
on page 60 in the Command and Response Table for SIS Commands), the Windows-  
based control software (see the SPPCP help file), the web pages (see “PIP Setup Page”  
on page 104), or using the IR remote control (see “Using the Optional IR 904 Remote  
Control” on page 43).  
Changing the PIP Input  
To change the input for the PIP window or the main window, determine if the corresponding  
input is low- or high-resolution.  
If your main window image is from a low-resolution source, switch to another low-resolution  
input from the front panel.  
NOTE: The front panel buttons do not permit you to select two low-resolution or two  
high-resolution inputs. For example, if you have selected input 1 (composite) for  
the main window (the button is lit amber) and then you press the button for  
input 2 (also composite), input 2 is selected for the main window (lights amber)  
and input 1 is deselected.  
Using the PIP Swap Feature  
Use the swap feature to switch the active main window input with the current PIP input.  
For example, if the main window is input 5 (RGB scaled) and the PIP window is input 1  
(composite), applying the swap command results in input 1 becoming the main window and  
input 5 the PIP window.  
To swap the main window input with the PIP input, press the PIP Swap button. The buttons  
switch colors from amber to green and vice versa.  
You can set audio to follow the main (default) window or the PIP window. Audio breakaway  
is not possible while PIP mode is on; audio must follow either the main window or the PIP  
window.

5. When the desired option is displayed, do one of the following to select it:  
Press Next to display another submenu.  
Press Menu repeatedly until the ExitMenu?PressNEXTscreen appears, then press  
Next to return to the default cycle.  
Do nothing more, and wait until the LCD screen returns to the default cycle  
(approximately 30 seconds).  
NOTE: The menus time out and the default cycle is displayed after 30 seconds of  
inactivity; however, any selections you made with the Adjust knobs are saved  
and remain in effect until you change them or reset the unit to factory defaults  
(see “Resetting” on page 40).

User Presets Menu  
User presets save the current set of image parameters for the selected input. Each input has  
16 available user memory presets to which you can save settings or recall using this menu,  
an SIS command (see the User presets commands in the Command and Response Table for  
SIS Commands on page 62) or the Presets web page (see “Memory/Input Presets Page”  
on page 102).  
The following settings are saved in a user preset:

3. Rotate either Adjust knob until the LCD screen displays the number of the preset to  
which you want to save the current settings, or that you want to recall.  
4. Press Next to save or recall the preset. The User Presets menu is displayed.  
To exit the user presets function without saving a preset, press Menu.  
NOTES: The presets are saved in nonvolatile memory; therefore, powering down the  
DVS does not lose the presets.  
User presets can be saved at one input resolution and rate and recalled to a  
different one.  
Example: If the current output resolution is 1024x768 and a 720p input is  
applied, you can size and center a “letterbox” image for a 16:9 input resolution  
and save it to a user preset. Subsequently, if a 1080p resolution is applied to the  
unit, the letterbox preset that was saved at 720p can be recalled with the new  
1080p input resolution.

Input Configuration Submenu  
Horizontal ([) and Vertical Knob ({) Adjustment  
Video Signal Type (Inputs 5, 6, 7, and 9)  
Select the desired video format for the selected input  
(this adjustment is available only for inputs 5, 6, 7, and  
9). The default is RGB.  
Accepted video signal types include RGB, RGBcvS,  
YUVp/HDTV, and YUVi.  
Film Mode Detect  
Select Onor Offto turn 3:2 or 2:2 pulldown (film mode)  
detection on and off for the selected input. The default  
is Off.  
Enable and disable 3:2 pulldown detection for NTSC and  
2:2 film detection for PAL video sources.  
3:2 and 2:2 pulldown (film modes) help maximize image  
detail and sharpness for video sources that originated  
from film. When film is converted to NTSC video, the  
film frame rate must be matched to the video frame  
rate. “Jaggies” and other image artifacts can result if  
conventional de-interlacing techniques are used on film-  
source video.  
When film mode is enabled, the DVS recognizes  
signals that originated from film and then applies video  
processing algorithms that optimize the conversion  
of video that was made with the 3:2 or 2:2 pulldown  
process. This results in sharply detailed images.

Auto Image submenu  
Auto-Image is enabled per input. When an input is connected and Auto-Image is enabled,  
the DVS performs an image adjustment in which it measures where the active area starts  
and stops, then adjusts input sampling accordingly, so that the image fills the window.  
The scaler measures the sync frequencies of the incoming video source and sets the active  
image area, total image area, and the sampling frequency according to a table stored on the  
DVS. If an unknown input is connected to the DVS, the scaler measures and estimates the  
resolution of the incoming video. If the estimate proves inaccurate, the Auto-Image function  
makes measurements to more accurately set up the input sampling.  
Auto-image affects the following settings:  
Active pixels  
Active lines  
Horizontal position  
Vertical position  
Horizontal size  
Vertical size  
Horizontal start  
Vertical start  
Pixel phase  
All other settings are unchanged when an Auto-Image is performed.  
If the aspect ratio is set to Fill, the horizontal and vertical position is set to 0,0, and the  
horizontal and vertical size is set to match the current output rate. If the aspect ratio is set to  
Follow, the horizontal and vertical position is set to maintain the native aspect ratio of the  
input with respect to the current output resolution.  
If auto memories are enabled, the DVS first checks for an existing memory entry for the  
connected input (see “Auto Memories submenu”).  
Auto-Image is useful in applications in which a variety of input sources are likely to be  
encountered, such as on a lectern or podium where guest laptops might be plugged in.  
To enable or disable Auto-Image for an input:  
1. From the Advanced Configuration menu, press Next until the Auto Image submenu is  
displayed.  
2. Rotate the horizontal Adjust knob ([) to select the input to be auto-imaged.  
3. Rotate the vertical Adjust knob ({) to select Onor Offfor Auto-Image.  
The default input selection is input 1; the default Auto-Image status is Off.  
Auto Memories submenu  
When auto memories is activated, the DVS stores size, position, and picture settings based  
on the incoming signal from the connected input. When the same input signal is detected  
again, these image settings are recalled from memory.  
To enable or disable auto memories:  
1. Press Next until the Auto Memories submenu is displayed.  
2. Rotate either Adjust knob to the right to select Onor to the left to select Off.  
The default for auto memories is On. It is recommended that auto memories not be disabled  
unless you are using an input preset (selectable via SIS commands, the SPPCP, and the web  
pages) or if you want each input to be treated as a new input without using saved settings.  
NOTE: When an Auto-Image is performed, auto memory is checked first and if an entry  
is found, its settings are used. If you do not want to use the auto memories  
settings, disable auto memories before allowing Auto-Image to be performed.  
(See the table below for the results of the possible combinations of Auto-Image  
and auto memories settings.)

detected by the DVS 510 are initially set up using default  
parameters, then Auto-Image is applied and the values are  
stored. The next time that signal is detected, the values  
stored in the auto memory location are applied.  
(Default) New signals or rates that have not been  
previously detected by the DVS 510 are set up using  
default parameters. If manual input or picture settings are  
made to the input, an auto memory location is created and  
recalled each successive time the input is detected.  
Each change in input sync triggers an automatic  
Auto-Image. When auto memory is disabled, each change  
in sync is treated as a new signal and an automatic  
Auto-Image is triggered. Any manual changes made to the  
image and picture controls are lost each time a new rate is  
detected.  
Off  
Off  
Each change in input sync causes default values to be  
applied to the rate. Any manual changes made to the  
image and picture controls are lost when a new rate is  
applied.  
Aspect Ratio submenu  
The aspect ratio control allows you to select between Fill(the input signal at each rate fills  
the entire output raster), or Follow(the input signal at each rate is displayed with its native  
aspect ratio [default setting]).  
In fill mode, if you want an aspect ratio adjustment for a single input rate, you can set  
up the correct size and centering by using one of the Aspect Ratio test patterns as a  
template (see “Test Pattern submenu” on the next page). If auto memories is enabled,  
this setting is saved and recalled the next time the signal is detected.  
In follow mode, each input rate is displayed with its native aspect ratio (4:3, 5:4, 16:9,  
or 16:10). You can view the correct letterbox or pillar box settings by pressing the Size  
or the Position button. If a single input is to fill the entire raster in follow mode, you can  
manually set the position (center) to 0,0 and the size to match the current output rate  
(see “Picture Controls” on page 36).  
To select the aspect ratio mode:  
1. From the Advanced Configuration menu, press Next until the Aspect Ratio submenu is  
displayed.  
2. Rotate either Adjust knob to select the desired mode.  
RGB Delay submenu  
The RGB delay feature applies a brief delay before displaying a new input on a screen,  
allowing the display device to adjust to the new sync timing. This delay shows the viewers a  
blank screen, masking any glitch during switching. The RGB Delay options are 0 to 5 seconds  
in 0.1-second increments.  
To set the RGB Delay time:  
1. From the Advanced Configuration menu, press Next until the RGB Delay submenu is  
displayed.,  
2. Rotate either Adjust knob to select the amount of delay.

Input Presets  
The DVS 510 Series has 128 input preset slots, which can save signal type, input  
configuration settings, and picture control settings for any of the inputs. These presets can  
be saved and recalled using the Windows-based control software (see the Signal Processing  
Products Control Program help file), SIS commands (see the Input Presets commands on  
page 63 in the Command and Response Table for SIS Commands) or the DVS 510 Series  
web pages (see “Memory/Input Presets Page” on page 102).  
The following settings are contained in the input presets:  
Input Type  
Preset Name*  
Film Mode Detect  
Zoom  
Color  
Horizontal Start Horizontal Position  
Tint  
Vertical Start  
Pixel Phase  
Total Pixels  
Vertical Position  
Horizontal size  
Vertical size  
Contrast  
Brightness  
Detail Filter  
Pan  
*Can be set by SIS command only.  
The 128 input presets are global, containing all of the settings for an input when the DVS is  
used with a matrix switcher. This allows a matrix switcher with multiple types of video inputs  
to be connected to the DVS 510 to expand the number of input video sources.  
Each input should be switched into the DVS, configured, then saved as a preset for recall  
by a control system when that input is sent from the matrix switcher to any of the 10 DVS  
inputs.  
If an input preset is recalled to an input that does not support the input type saved in  
the preset, an SIS error code is returned.  
If the signal frequencies and total line count do not match the frequencies saved in the  
preset, the DVS uses the auto memories settings instead of recalling the preset. If no  
auto memory exists for the frequency, the DVS references its lookup table (a generic list  
of default sampling parameters embedded in the DVS).  
If the output rate does not match the output rate that was active when the preset was  
saved, all settings in the input preset are recalled except size and position.  
Audio Functions  
The DVS 510 Series provides three audio outputs: fixed, variable, and amplified (DVS 510 SA  
only). The following table shows the functions available on these audio outputs.

Volume Control  
Rotating the Volume knob on the front panel increases and decreases the audio volume in  
up to 100 steps.  
NOTE: This knob is speed sensitive; that is, you can turn the knob quickly to make  
coarse adjustments or slowly to make fine adjustments.

When this knob is turned, the LCD window displays a bar graph representation of the  
volume level for 0.5 seconds before returning to the previous menu. In addition, the step  
number is displayed at the top of the LCD screen.  
Volume 22  
Figure 22. Example of the LCD Screen during Volume Adjustment  
Volume adjustment can be made from the front panel at any time during scaler operation.  
Volume LEDs  
To the right of the Volume knob are three LEDs that indicate the volume level:  
Max (red) — Lights steadily when the volume level is between 80% and 99%. When  
the volume is at 100% (maximum), this LED flashes.  
Mid (green) — Lights steadily when the volume level is above 49%.  
Min (green) — Lights steadily when the volume level is above 1%. When the volume  
is at 0 (minimum), this LED flashes. It also flashes when the audio is muted by SIS  
command (see the Audio Mute commands on page 62 in the Command and Response  
Table for SIS Commands) or by the IR remote control (see “Using the Optional IR 904  
Remote Control” on page 43).  
NOTES: When the volume is muted, all the Volume LEDs go dark except Min, which  
flashes.  
When an incremental Volume LED lights, the LEDs below it remain lit. For  
example, when the Max LED lights, the Mid and Min LEDS are also lit.

Audio or Video Breakaway  
To switch the audio or the video separately away from the current input to another input  
(audio or video breakaway), enter an audio or a video input selection SIS command (see  
the Input Selection commands on page 55 in the Command and Response Table for SIS  
Commands). When the audio is switched from one input to another (audio breakaway), the  
audio switch effect is always a fade, regardless of the selected video effect. During audio or  
video breakaway, the audio input button lights red and the video button lights green. Audio  
or video breakaway is not available while the DVS is in PIP mode.  
Resetting  
The rear panel has a recessed Reset button that initiates various levels of resets. To select  
different reset levels, use a pointed stylus or small Philips screwdriver to press and hold the  
button while the DVS is running or press and hold the button while applying power to the  
scaler.  
NOTE: You can also reset the unit to factory defaults using SIS commands (see the  
Resets commands on page 66 in the Command and Response Table for SIS  
Commands) or from the front panel (see “Reset to Factory screen” on  
page 33).  
CAUTION: Review the reset modes carefully. Using the wrong reset mode may result  
in unintended loss of flash memory programming, port reassignment, or  
scaler reboot. The table on the next page provides a summary of the reset  
modes.  
NOTES: The reset modes listed in the table on the next page close all open IP and  
Telnet connections and all sockets.  
Each mode is a separate function, not a continuation from mode 1 to mode 5.  
There is no reset mode 2 for the DVS 510 Series.

Front Panel Lockout (Executive Mode)  
To prevent accidental changes to settings, you can lock the DVS 510 front panel controls by  
placing the scaler in lock (executive) mode 1 or 2. While the DVS is in lock mode, RS-232,  
RS-422, and Ethernet communication, as well as IR remote control, remain available.  
Lock mode 1 locks all front panel functions. This mode can be enabled or disabled  
commands on page 64 in the Command and Response Table for SIS Commands).  
Lock mode 2 locks all front panel functions except input selection, PIP, volume  
control, and Auto-Image. To enable lock mode 2, press and hold the Position and Size  
buttons simultaneously until ExecutiveMode2Enabledappears in the LCD window  
(approximately 2 seconds).  
To exit lock mode 2, press and hold the Position and Size buttons again until Executive  
ModeDisabledappears in the LCD window (approximately 2 seconds).  
NOTE: The IR receiver can be locked (default state) and unlocked via SIS commands (see  
the IR Receiver commands on page 65 in the Command and Response Table for  
SIS Commands).  
Additional Features  
The following features are available via one or more of the following: SIS commands, the  
Signal Processing Products Control Program, the DVS 510 HTML pages, or IR remote control.  
They cannot be accessed via the front panel.  
Freeze  
This function freezes the current image on the display. You can freeze and unfreeze the  
image using the Windows-based control software (see the SPPCP help file), SIS commands  
via an RS-232 or RS-422 connection (see the Freeze commands on page 63 in the  
Command and Response Table for SIS Commands) or the web pages (see “User Control  
Page” on page 99).  
If you switch inputs while the image is frozen, the freeze mode is cancelled and the image  
from the new input is displayed.  
Power Save Modes  
When there is no active video for the current input, you can disable the output sync so that  
a display can go into a lower power or standby state. This can increase the life of the display  
panel or projector lamp. You can select the power save mode using SIS commands (see the  
Power Save/Screen Saver commands on page 60 in the Command and Response Table for  
SIS Commands) or the Signal Processing Products Control Program (see the SPPCP help file).  
The power save options are:  
Mute video to black, retaining output sync.

save mode. Output sync mute is available only via SIS commands (see the Video Mute  
commands on page 57, in the Command and Response Table for SIS Commands).  
NOTE: Individual outputs cannot be muted by this command. With the output sync  
mute enabled, all analog and digital outputs are simultaneously disabled.  
Overscan Mode  
This function allows you to set a default overscan of 0%, 2.5%, or 5% to apply to SMPTE  
input rates (NTSC, PAL, 480p through 1080p). When the overscan mode is not set to 0%  
and an auto-image is performed on a low-resolution or DVI input, the DVS uses the default  
values for input sizing and centering instead of performing a complete auto-image.  
For YUV Auto and RGB inputs, pixel phase is included in the auto-image, regardless of the  
current overscan setting.  
The overscan mode setting is adjusted per input type (composite, S-video, RGBcvS,  
YUV Auto, RGB, and DVI) using SIS commands (see the Overscan Mode commands on  
page 64 in the Command and Response Table for SIS Commands).  
Using the Optional IR 904 Remote Control  
The optional hand-held IR 904 Remote Control (part number 70-767-01) provides a  
convenient means of remotely performing many of the functions that are also available  
through the front panel, SIS commands, the Windows-based control software, or the  
embedded web pages. The DVS responds to commands from remote control as if the  
corresponding button were pressed on the front panel or the corresponding SIS command or  
software selection were entered.  
The IR receiver port on the front panel is located to the left of the Config port. It receives  
signals from the remote control if they are sent from within a 40-degree arc to the right or  
left of direct line of sight between the remote control and the scaler IR sensor, and from no  
more than 30 feet (9 m) away.

Locking IR Remote Control Access  
The DVS can be set to lock out users from using the IR 904 Remote Control to control  
the scaler. Remote access can be enabled and disabled via SIS commands (see the  
IR Receiver commands on page 65 in the Command and Response Table for SIS  
Commands). When remote access is locked, all other controls remain available (SIS  
commands, web pages, control software, and front panel).  
NOTES: By default, the IR receiver is disabled.  
The DVS must be connected to power before you operate the remote  
control. Setup operations cannot be performed from the remote control.  
Installing Batteries in the IR 904 Remote Control  
Install two AAA batteries in the IR 904 Remote Control as shown below.

Remote  
Configuration and  
Control  
The DVS 510 can be remotely controlled via a host computer or other device (such as  
a control system) attached to the rear panel RS232 connector, the front panel RS-232  
Config port, or the LAN port. You can configure and control the DVS by the Extron Simple  
Instruction Set (SIS) of commands, by using the Extron Windows-based Signal Processing  
Products Control Program (SPPCP), or by the internal HTML web pages (see the “HTML  
Configuration and Control” section, beginning on page 85).  
This section describes the serial and Ethernet connections through which the SIS commands  
can be issued, and lists the commands that are available for configuring and controlling the  
DVS 510 Series. It also provides instructions on obtaining and opening the control program.  
Topics include:  
Serial Ports  
The DVS supports RS-232 and RS-422 serial communication protocols and can operate  
at 9600, 19200, 38400, or 115200 baud rates. (See “Edit Comm Settings menu” on  
page 34 to configure this port using the front panel menus.)  
The default protocol for the serial ports is 9600 baud, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow  
control. (See  
Panel] on page 11 for the pin assignments for these two ports.)  
Ethernet Port  
The RJ-45 connector on the rear panel can be connected to an Ethernet LAN or WAN to  
enable control of the DVS via SIS commands or the Signal Processing Products Control  
Program. Communication between the scaler and the controlling device can be via a utility  
such as Extron DataViewer or HyperTerminal, or via Telnet (a TCP socket using port 23). The  
Telnet port number can be changed, if necessary, via SIS. (For information on connecting via  
Telnet, see “IP Addressing” on page 116.)  
Ethernet Cable  
The Ethernet cable must be properly terminated for your application as either a straight-  
through cable or a crossover cable. (For pin assignments for these cables, see “ LAN  
n
connector” on page 10.)

IP Address  
To access the DVS 510 or DVS 510 SA via the Ethernet port, obtain the IP address of the  
scaler from your network administrator. If the IP address has been changed to an address  
comprised of words and characters, you can determine the actual numeric IP address using  
the ping (ICMP) utility (see “IP Addressing” on page 116 for more details). If the IP address  
has not been changed, the factory-specified default is 192.168.254.254.  
Establishing an Ethernet Connection Using TCP  
Establish a network connection to a DVS as follows:  
1. Open a TCP connection to port 23, using the IP address of the scaler.  
The scaler responds with a copyright message that includes the date, the name of  
the product, firmware version, part number, and the current date and time (see  
Scaler-initiated Messages” on the next page).  
NOTE: If the scaler is not password-protected, the device is ready to accept SIS  
commands immediately after it sends the copyright message.  
If the scaler is password-protected, a passwordprompt appears below the  
copyright message.  
2. If the scaler is password protected, enter the appropriate administrator or user  
password.  
3. If the password is accepted, the scaler responds with LoginUseror Login  
Administrator.  
4. If the password is not accepted, the Passwordprompt reappears.  
Connection Timeouts  
The Ethernet link times out after a designated period of no communications. By default,  
this timeout value is set to 5 minutes, but the value can be changed (see the Set current  
connection port timeout command on page 71, in the Command and Response Table for  
IP-specific SIS Commands).  
NOTE: Extron recommends leaving the default timeout at 5 minutes and periodically  
issuing the Query (Q) command to keep the connection active. If there are long  
idle periods, Extron recommends disconnecting and reopening the connection  
when another command must be sent.  
Using SIS Commands  
SIS commands consist of one or more characters per command field. They do not require  
any special characters to begin or end the command character sequence. When the DVS  
determines that a command is valid, it executes the command and sends a response to the  
host device. Each scaler response to an SIS command ends 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.

Scaler-initiated Messages  
When a local event such as a front panel input selection or adjustment takes place, the DVS  
responds by sending a message to the host. No response is required from the host. Some  
scaler-initiated messages are listed here.  
(c)Copyright20nn,ExtronElectronics,DVS510,Vn.nn.,60-835-0n]  
Www,DDMmmYYYY hh:mm:ss]  
The DVS sends the copyright message upon connecting to the computer via IP, or when  
powering up while connected. Vn.nnis the firmware version number.  
] Password:  
The ] Password:prompt requires a password (administrator level or user level) followed  
by a carriage return. The prompt is repeated if the correct password is not entered.  
If the correct password is entered, the unit responds with:  
]******  
]Login Administrator]  
or  
]******  
]Login User]  
depending on the password that was entered. If the passwords are the same for both the  
administrator and the user, the unit defaults to administrator privileges.  
InX!All]

is the input number.  
Error Responses  
When the DVS receives a valid command, it executes the command and sends a response  
to the host device. If the unit is unable to execute the command because the command  
contains invalid parameters, it returns an error response to the host. The responses include:  
Error Numbers  
E01— Invalid input number  
E10— Invalid command  
E11— Invalid preset number  
E12— Invalid port number  
E13— Invalid parameter  
E14— Not valid for this configuration  
E17— Invalid command for signal type  
E22— Busy  
E24— Privilege violation  
E25— Device not present  
E26— Maximum number of connections exceeded  
E27— Invalid event number  
E28— Bad filename or file not found

Error Response References  
14 = Commands that give an E14 (invalid command for this configuration) error if sent  
to a product whose current configuration does not support the command  
24 = Commands that give an E24 (privilege violation) error if you are not logged on at  
administrator level  
27 = Commands that may give an E27 (invalid event number) error  
28 = Commands that may give an E28 (file not found) error  
Using the Command and Response Tables  
These tables contain Telnet (port 23), serial, or web browser (port 80) commands. There are  
some minor differences between issuing these commands via Telnet and via URL encoding  
using a web browser. All commands work with either connection method but, due to some  
limitations of the web browser, the encapsulation characters are modified to make sure that  
the browser properly handles them.  
NOTE: For web browsers, all non-alphanumeric characters must be represented as  
their hexadecimal equivalent. An example is the %xxcommand, where xxis  
the two-character representation of the hex byte that needs to be sent. (For  
example, a comma would be shown as %2C.)  
Telnet  
Web browser  
Escape (Hex 1B)  
W (must not be encoded)  
Carriage Return (Hex 0D)  
Pipe Character ( ) (must not be encoded)  
When SIS commands are used through a web browser, the URL reference is used below to  
shorten the examples. In practice, this would be the full URL of the control interface and  
web page reference, including all path information; for example, http://192.168.254.254/  
index.html  
To send any of the commands using a web browser, prefix them with the full IP address,  
followed by ?cmd=.  
NOTE: With Telnet you can use either the Escape commands or the W commands, and  
the carriage return or the pipe ( |) character. With the web browser you are  
required to use the W commands and the pipe character.  
In either method, {Data} is data that is directed to a specified port and must be encoded if it  
is non-alphanumeric.  
The Command and Response Tables for SIS Commands, starting on page 55, list the  
commands that the DVS 510 scaler recognizes as valid, the responses that are returned to  
the host, a description of the command function or the results of executing the command,  
and command examples.  
NOTE: If the unit does not support or recognize a command that is entered, no action is  
taken and no response is returned.

HTML  
Configuration and  
Control  
This section provides procedures for accessing and using the DVS 510 embedded web pages.  
The following topics are included:  
The DVS can be controlled and operated through its Ethernet port, connected via a LAN or  
WAN and using a web browser such as Microsoft® Internet Explorer®. The browser displays  
the DVS web pages, which provide an alternative means of configuring and operating  
the scaler. These factory-installed web pages are always available and cannot be erased or  
overwritten.  
NOTE: If your Ethernet connection to the scaler is unstable, try turning off the proxy  
server in your web browser. To do this in Microsoft Internet Explorer, click  
Tools> InternetOptions> Connections> LAN Settings, clear the Usea  
proxyserver...check box, then click OK.  
Accessing the Web Pages  
Access the HTML pages as follows:  
1. Start the web browser program.  
2. Click in the browser Addressfield and enter the IP address of your DVS.  
NOTE: If the local system administrators have not changed the value, use the  
factory-specified default 192.168.254.254in this field.  
3. If you want the browser to display a page other than the default page (such as a custom  
page that you have uploaded), enter a slash (/) following the IP address and the name of  
the page file to open.  
NOTES: The browser Addressfield should display the IP address in the following  
format: nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn/optional_file_name.html.  
The following characters are invalid or not recommended in file names:  
+ ~ , @ = ` [ ] { } < > ‘ ’ “ ” ; : | \ and space.

4. Press the <Enter> key. The DVS checks to see if it is password protected.  
If the scaler is not password protected, the System Status web page opens.  
If the DVS is password protected, the network password dialog box is displayed.  
Figure 39. Example of a Network Password Dialog Box  
5. If an administrator or user password is required, enter it in the Passwordfield. If desired,  
select the check box to have the system input your password the next time you enter  
your DVS IP address. Click OK.  
NOTE: A Usernameentry is not required.  
The DVS 510 checks several possibilities, in the following order, and then responds  
accordingly:  
a. If the address includes a specific file name, such as  
10.13.156.10/file_name.html, the scaler downloads that HTML page.  
b. If there is a file in the DVS memory that is named index.html, the scaler downloads  
index.html as the default startup page.  
c. If neither of the above conditions exists, the scaler downloads and displays the  
factory-installed default startup page, nortxe_index.html, which is the file name for  
the System Status page.  
Special Characters  
The HTML language reserves certain characters for specific functions. The DVS does not  
accept these characters as part of preset names, the scaler name, passwords, or locally  
created file names.  
Use of the following characters is not recommended:  
+ ~ , @ = ` [ ] { } < > ’ ‘ “ ” ; : | \ ? and space.

IP Settings Fields  
The IPSettingsfields let you view and edit settings unique to the Ethernet interface. After  
editing any of the IP settings, click the Submitbutton at the bottom of this section.  
Unit Name field  
The UnitNamefield contains the name used as the “from” information when the DVS  
e-mails notification of its failed or repaired status. You can change this name field to any  
valid name, up to 24 alphanumeric characters.  
NOTE: The following characters are invalid or not recommended in the name:  
+ ~ , @ = [ ] { } < > ’ ‘ “ ” ; : | \ and ?.  
DHCP radio buttons  
The DHCPOnradio button directs the DVS to ignore any entered IP addresses and to obtain  
its IP address from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server (if the network is  
DHCP capable).  
The DHCPOffradio button turns DHCP off (default).  
Contact your local system administrator for this setting.  
IP Address field  
The IPAddressfield contains the IP address of the connected DVS. This address is encoded  
in the scaler flash memory.  
Valid IP addresses consist of four octets: one-, two-, or three-digit numeric sub-fields  
separated by periods. Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros,  
up to three digits total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.  
The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other  
equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.  
NOTE: IP address changes can cause conflicts with other equipment. Only local system  
administrators should change IP addresses.  
Gateway IP Address field  
The GatewayIPAddressfield identifies the address of the gateway (to the mail server) to  
be used if the scaler and the mail server are not on the same subnet.  
The gateway IP address has the same validity rules as the system IP address (see “IP Address  
field,” above).  
Subnet Mask field  
The SubnetMaskfield is used to determine whether the scaler is on the same subnet as  
the mail server when you are using a subnet (see Subnetting, a Primer” on page 120 for  
more information).  
The subnet mask address has the same validity rules as the system IP and gateway IP  
addresses.  
MAC Address field  
The MAC (media access control) address is a unique hardware address by which each  
individual DVS 510 can be identified. It consists of six pairs of characters separated by  
hyphens. For all Extron products, the first three character pairs are 00-05-A6, followed by  
three more pairs unique to the individual device. The MAC address is hard coded in the  
scaler and cannot be changed.

Input presets  
The DVS 510 Series has 128 input preset slots, which can save signal type, input  
configuration settings, and picture control settings for any of the inputs. These presets can  
be saved and recalled using the Windows-based control software (see the Signal Processing  
Products Control Program help file), the front panel buttons (see “Input Presets” on  
page 38, or SIS commands (see the Input Presets commands on page 63 in the Command  
and Response Table for SIS Commands). The following settings are stored in input presets:  
Input Type  
Preset Name*  
Film Mode Detect  
Zoom  
Color  
Horizontal Start Horizontal Position  
Tint  
Vertical Start  
Pixel Phase  
Total Pixels  
Vertical Position  
Horizontal size  
Vertical size  
Contrast  
Brightness  
Detail Filter  
Pan  
*Can be set only by SIS command  
The 128 input presets are global, containing all of the settings for an input when the DVS is  
used with a matrix switcher. This allows a matrix switcher with multiple types of video inputs  
to be connected to the DVS 510 to expand the number of input video sources.  
Each input should be switched into the DVS, configured, then saved as a preset for recall by  
a control system when that input is sent from the switcher to any of the 10 DVS inputs.  
If an input preset is recalled to an input that does not support the signal type saved in  
the preset, an SIS error code is returned.  
If the signal frequencies and total line count do not match the frequencies saved in the  
preset, the DVS uses the auto memories settings instead of recalling the preset. If no  
auto memories exist for the frequency, the DVS references its lookup table (a generic list  
of default sampling parameters embedded in the DVS).  
If the output rate does not match the output rate that was active when the preset was  
saved, all settings in the input preset are recalled except size and position.

Selecting a PIP input  
The PIP input must be a different resolution type (high or low) from the main input. For  
example, if input 1 (composite video) is your main input, the PIP input can be selected from  
inputs 5 through 10 (high-resolution only). The following table shows the resolution type for  
each input:

By default, the PIP image is one-fourth the size of the main window and is positioned in  
the lower-right corner of the display. You can change this size using the controls on the PIP  
Setup page.  
To select the PIP input:  
1. If necessary, select the desired main input.  
2. In the PIP Selection section, click the desired input button. If your selection is valid, PIP  
mode is enabled and the PIP On/Off button on the front panel lights.  
NOTE: Based on the currently selected main input, the buttons for inputs with the  
wrong type of resolution are grayed-out and unavailable.)  
The PIP input button on the screen is highlighted and its equivalent input button on the  
front panel lights green.  
NOTES: Audio or video breakaway is not available when the DVS is in PIP mode.  
Audio comes from either the main or the PIP input, depending on the  
current Audio Follow setting. (The default is to follow the main  
window.)  
Other PIP control buttons include:  
Swap: Switches the active main window input with the PIP input. The button for the  
new PIP input is highlighted on the screen.  
Off: Exits PIP mode. The highlighting is removed from the PIP input button on the  
screen and the Offbutton is highlighted. The PIP On/Off button on the front panel  
becomes unlit.  
Auto-Image: Performs an Auto-Image (adjusts the image to fill the screen) on the  
selected PIP input (see “Auto Image submenu” on page 30 for more information  
about the Auto-Image function).

Picture Control (PIP)  
In the Picture Control section, adjust the PIP controls as desired. Except for Pan, you can  
adjust these by either clicking the +or button to increase or decrease the value in the text  
field, or by keying in a value.  
Horizontal Shift: Move the image to the right or left on the display. The value in the  
text box is the distance in pixels of the left edge of the image from the left edge of the  
display. The range is dependent on the output; the default is 0plus or minus the output  
rate. (This is the same as horizontal positioning or centering.)  
Vertical Shift: Move the image up or down on the display. The value in the text box  
is the distance in lines of the top edge of the image from the top edge of the display.  
The range is dependent on the output; the default is 0plus or minus the output rate.  
(This is the same as vertical positioning or centering.)  
Horizontal Size: Stretch or shrink the image horizontally. The value in the text box is  
the width of the image in pixels. The range is dependent on the output rate.  
Vertical Size: Stretch or shrink the image vertically. The value in the text box is the  
height of the image in lines. The range is dependent on the output rate.  
Color: Adjust the intensity of the colors in the image. (At the lowest adjustment, all  
colors appear as shades of gray.) The range is 000through 127; the default is 064.  
Tint: Change the appearance of the colors in the selected window. The range is 000to  
127; the default is 064.  
Brightness: Set the black level of the input. The range is 000through 127; the default  
is 064.  
Contrast: Increase or decrease the range of image light and dark values in the image.  
The range is 000through 127; the default is 064.  
Detail Filter: Adjust the sharpness of the image in the image. The range is 000  
through 127; the default is 064.  
Zoom: Increase or decrease the size of the image while keeping the aspect ratio  
constant. The range is dependent on the output rate.  
Pan: Click the Lor Rbutton to move the focus on the image left or right. Click the Uor  
Dbutton to pan up or down. Pan is available only if Zoomis set to greater than 100%.  
Input Sampling (PIP)  
The input sampling controls for the PIP window also can be adjusted by clicking the +or –  
button to adjust the value in the text field, or by keying in a value.  
Horizontal Start: Specify the distance in pixels from the left edge of the total video  
display area of the selected input to the left edge of its active area. The default is 128.  
Vertical Start: Specify the distance in pixels from the top edge of the total video display  
area of the selected input to the top edge of its active area. The default is 128.  
Pixel Phase (RGB and YUVp/HDTV inputs only): Adjust the point at which pixels are  
sampled for the selected input. The range is 1through 31; the default is 16.  
Total Pixels (RGB and YUVp/HDTV inputs only): Increase or decrease the width in  
pixels of the total line of video. The default is the auto-sensed value. The range is ±512  
from the auto-sensed value.  
Active Pixels: Increase or decrease the width in pixels of the active video area of  
the selected input. The default is the auto-sensed value. The range is ±512from the  
auto-sensed value.  
Active Lines: Increase or decrease the height in lines of the active video area of  
the selected input. The default is the auto-sensed value. The range is ±512from the

Mounting the DVS 510 Scaler  
Rack Mounting  
UL guidelines for rack mounting  
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the installation of the  
DVS 510 in a rack:  
Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the equipment is installed in a closed  
or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment  
may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an  
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the  
manufacturer.  
Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the amount of air flow  
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.  
Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical  
loading does not create a hazardous condition.  
Circuit overloading — When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, consider  
the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply  
wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.  
Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted  
equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections  
to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips).  
Rack mounting procedure  
The DVS 510 scaler is delivered with MBD 249 mounting brackets attached. For optional  
rack mounting, do not install the rubber feet.  
Mount the scaler in the rack as follows (see figure 52 on the next page):  
1. Insert the unit into the rack and align the holes in the mounting brackets with the holes  
in the rack.  
2. Use four machine screws (provided) to attach the brackets to the rack.

Tabletop Use  
To set up the unit for tabletop use:  
1. Remove the eight screws to detach the mounting brackets from the sides of the unit.  
2. Attach one of the provided self-adhesive rubber feet to each corner of the bottom of  
the unit.  
Button Labels  
The DVS 510 is delivered with button caps pre-labeled for your convenience. However, you  
can replace these labels with your own button labels, if desired. Page 115 contains blank  
button labels. If desired, print the page and cut the labels out, write button information in  
each button area as desired, and insert them behind the transparent button caps. You can  
also create labels using the Button Label Generator software, provided with the DVS on the  
Extron software DVD.  
Replacing Button Labels  
The button assembly consists of a clear lens cap, the button label, and a white diffuser (see  
figure 53 on the next page).  
To replace a button label:  
1. Make new labels as needed, using either the blanks on page 115 or the Button Label  
Generator software, and cut them out.  
2. Remove the button assembly by inserting a small, flat-bladed screwdriver between the  
button base and the diffuser to gently pry the button assembly off the button plunger.

3. Locate the small corner notch on the lens cap, and slide the screwdriver between the  
lens cap and the diffuser (see in the illustration below).  
b
4. Using a rotating motion of the screwdriver, carefully pry the two pieces apart (see  
in  
c
the illustration below).  
5. Lift out the transparent square label that you want to replace. You may need to use the  
small screwdriver to gently pry the label out.  
6. Insert one of the new labels you created in step 1 into the clear button cap, align the  
white backing plate with the cap, and firmly snap it into place.  
7. Gently, but firmly, press the reassembled button into its space on the DVS front panel,  
until it snaps into place.  
8. Repeat steps 1 through 7 as needed to relabel other buttons.

Creating Labels Using the Button Label Generator  
The Button Label Generator software creates labels that you can place inside the transparent  
covers of the front panel buttons. You can create labels with names, alphanumeric  
characters, icons, and even colored bitmaps for easy and intuitive input and output selection.  
(See “Replacing Button Labels” on the previous page for procedures for removing and  
replacing the button covers.)  
The program is contained on the same DVD as the Signal Processing Products  
Control Program, and is installed automatically when you install the control  
software. By default, the software installation creates a directory for the program at  
C:\ProgramFiles\Extron\ButtonLabelGenerator. The ButtonLabelGeneratoricon  
is placed in the ExtronElectronicsgroup or folder.  
1. To run the label creation program, double-click on the ButtonLabel  
Generatoricon (shown at right) in the Extron Electronics group or folder.  
The Button Label Generator window opens.

front panel buttons (although you can select any layout from this menu). You can also  
select CustomizeButtonLayoutsfrom the Toolsmenu to open the Customize  
buttonlayoutwindow, on which you can create your own layout.  
3. Click on the button representation that you want to edit. A red box surrounds the  
selected button.  
4. Edit the selected button by using any of the tools provided on the Button Label  
Generator window. Some of the edits you can make are:  
Enter text and select the font, text size, and text color from the drop-down menus  
on the tool bar.  
Select an icon from the ButtonPicturePaletteand drag it to the desired  
button.

IP Addressing  
What is an IP Address?  
An IP address is a 32-bit binary number that is used to identify each device on an Ethernet  
network. This number is usually represented by four decimal numbers (each in the range  
of 0 to 255) separated by dots, such as 198.123.34.240. This is called “dotted decimal  
notation.”  
An IP address is divided into two parts:  
Network identifier  
Host identifier  
Each address on a given network must have the same network identifier value but a unique  
host identifier. As a result, there are different classes of addresses that define the range of  
valid addresses and which parts of the address are used for the network and host identifiers.  
The table below shows the most common IP address classes. In this table, NNNrefers to the  
network identifier and HHHrefers to the host identifier.  
Class Name  
Class A  
Valid Address Range  
Identifier Arrangement  
NNN.HHH.HHH.HHH  
NNN.NNN.HHH.HHH  
NNN.NNN.NNN.HHH

Choosing IP Addresses  
If the computer and the DVS are directly connected or connected via their own independent  
network, follow the guidelines below to choose the IP addresses.  
However, if you intend to connect your computer and scaler to an existing network, you  
need to ask the network administrator to allocate suitable IP addresses.  
On an independent network, it is generally recommended that you use the Class C format  
(from 192.0.0.1 to 223.255.255.254).  
There are two rules for choosing IP addresses:  
The network identifier must be the same for each IP address.  
The host identifier must be unique for each address.  
By these rules, the first three decimal values of your class C IP address must all be the same,  
while the last value is identifies each device.  
The following is an example of a valid Class C addressing scheme:  
Device  
IP Address  
SPPCP Control Software Computer  
208.132.180.41  
208.132.180.42  
DVS 510  
NOTE: The host identifiers (41 and 42 in the example above) do not need to be  
sequential or in any particular order. However, it is recommended that you group  
the numbers for simplicity.

Device

SPPCP Control Software Computer  
208.132.180.41  
192.157.180.42  
DVS 510  
NOTE: The above addresses are invalid because the network identifier for each address  
is not the same even though each IP address is unique.  
You can perform a test from your computer to check that a device at a particular address is  
responding correctly or to determine its address (see “Pinging for the IP Address”).  
Subnet Mask  
The subnet mask is another 32-bit binary number that is used to “mask” certain bits of the  
IP address. This provides a method of extending the number of network options for a given  
IP address. It works by allowing part of the host identifier to be used as a subnet identifier.  
It is important that you set the correct value for the subnet mask. The basic values depend  
on the class of IP address being used.  
Class Name  
Subnet Mask  
Class A  
Class B  
Class C  
255.0.0.0  
255.255.0.0

(See “Subnetting, a Primer” on page 120 for more information.)  
Pinging for the IP Address  
To access the DVS 510 via the Ethernet port, you need the scaler IP address. If the address  
has been changed to an address comprised of words and characters, you can determine the  
actual numeric IP address using the Ping utility. If the address has not been changed, the  
factory-specified default is 192.168.254.254.  
Ping can also be used to test the Ethernet link to the DVS 510 Series  
.
Pinging to determine the Extron IP address  
The Microsoft Ping utility is accessed via the command prompt. Ping tests the Ethernet  
interface between the computer and the DVS 510 scaler. Ping can also be used to determine  
the actual numeric IP address from an alias and to determine the web address.  
Ping the scaler as follows:  
1. From the Windows Startmenu, select Run.... The Run window opens.  
2. In the Opentext field, enter command.  
Figure 55. Run Window  
3. Click OK. A command window opens.

4. At the command prompt, enter pingIP address. The computer returns a display  
similar to figure 56.  
The line Pinging...reports the actual numeric IP address, regardless of whether you  
entered the actual numeric IP address or an alias name.  
Figure 56. Ping Command and Response  
Pinging to determine the web IP address  
The Ping utility has a modifier, -a, that directs the command to return the web address  
rather than the numeric IP address.  
At the prompt, enter ping-aIPaddress. The display that the computer returns is  
similar to the Pingresponse shown in the figure above, except that when you enter -a,  
the Pinging mail...line reports the web IP address instead of the numeric IP address,  
regardless of whether you entered the actual numeric IP address or an alias name.  
Connecting as a Telnet Client  
The Microsoft Telnet utility is accessed via the command prompt. Telnet allows you to input  
SIS commands to the DVS from the PC via the Ethernet link and the LAN.  
To start Telnet as follows:  
1. From the Startmenu, select Run.... The Runwindow opens.  
2. In the Opentext field, enter command.  
3. Click OK. A command window opens.

Telnet tips  
It is not the intention of this guide to detail all of the operations and functionality of Telnet;  
however, some basic level of understanding is necessary for operating the DVS 510 Series via  
Telnet.  
Connecting to the DVS (Open command)  
Use the Open command to connect the computer to the DVS 510 scale. After the computer  
and scaler are connected, you can enter the SIS commands the same as you would if you  
were using the RS-232 or RS-422 link.  
Connect the computer to the DVS as follows:  
1. At the Telnet prompt, enter openIPaddress.  
If the scaler is not password protected, no further prompts are displayed until  
you disconnect from the DVS.  
If the scaler is password protected, Telnet displays a password prompt.  
2. If necessary, enter the password at the prompt.  
Connection to the scaler via Ethernet can be password protected. There are two levels of  
password: administrator and user.  
Administrator: A person logged on as an administrator has full access to all DVS  
scaling capabilities and editing functions.  
User: Users can select test patterns, mute or unmute the output, select a blue  
screen, and view all settings with the exception of passwords. By default, the scaler  
is delivered with both passwords set to “carriage return.”  
When you are logged in, the scaler returns either LoginAdministratoror Login  
User. No further prompts are displayed until you disconnect from the DVS 510.  
Escape character and Esc key  
Many SIS commands include the keyboard <Esc> key. Consequently, some confusion may  
exist between the Escapecharacter and the <Esc> key.  
]
When Telnet is first started, the utility advises that the Escapecharacteris<Ctrl+ >. This  
means that the Telnet Escapecharacter is a key combination: the <Ctrl> key and the <]>  
key pressed simultaneously. Pressing these keys displays the Telnet prompt while leaving the  
connection to the DVS intact.

Local echo  
Once your computer is connected to the DVS 510, by default Telnet does not display your  
keystrokes on the screen. SIS commands are entered blindly, and only the SIS responses are  
displayed on the screen. To command Telnet to show all keystrokes, enter setlocal_echo  
at the Telnet prompt before you open the connection to the scaler.  
With local echo turned on, keystrokes and the scaler responses are displayed on the same  
line.  
Example: 1*1!In1Out1All,  
where 1*1!is the SIS command and In1Out1Allis the response.  
Note that all keystrokes are displayed, even those that should be masked, such as the  
password entry. For example, when entering a password with local echo turned on, you  
see a display such as a*d*m*i*n*, where adminis the keyed-in password and *****is the  
masked response.  
Local echo can be turned off by entering unsetlocal_echoat the Telnet prompt. If your  
computer is connected to the DVS, and you need to access the Telnet prompt to turn local  
echo off, enter the Escapesequence (< Ctrl + ] >).  
Setting carriage return with line feed  
Unless commanded otherwise, Telnet transmits a line feed character only (no carriage return)  
to the connected scaler when you press the <Enter> key. This is the correct setting for SIS  
communication with the scaler. The Telnet setcrlfcommand forces Telnet to transmit  
carriage return and line feed characters when <Enter> is pressed; however, if crlfis set, the  
SIS link with the scaler does not function properly.  
Closing the link to the scaler  
To close the link to the scaler, access the Telnet prompt by entering the Escapesequence  
]
(<Ctrl+ >). At the Telnet prompt, enter close.  
Help  
For Telnet command definitions, enter ?at the Telnet prompt.  
Exiting Telnet (Quit command)  
Exit the Telnet utility by entering quitat the Telnet prompt. If you are connected to the DVS,  
access the Telnet prompt by entering the Escapesequence (<Ctrl + ]>).  
Subnetting, a Primer  
A subnet is a subset of a network — a set of IP devices that have portions of their IP  
addresses in common. It is not the purpose of this manual to describe TCP/IP protocol  
in detail. However, some understanding of TCP/IP subnetting is necessary in order to  
understand the interaction of the DVS 510 and the mail server gateway. To understand  
subnetting at the level required to install and operate the DVS 510, you must understand the  
concepts of a gateway, local and remote devices, IP addresses and octets, and subnet masks  
and octets.  
Gateways  
The DVS 510 Series can communicate with the e-mail server that it uses for e-mail  
notification directly (if they are on the same subnet), or its communication can be routed via  
a gateway (a computer that provides a link between different subnets).

Local and remote devices  
The local and remote devices are defined from the point of view of the function being  
described. In this guide, subnetting is an issue when you are using the controlling computer  
to set TCP/IP and e-mail values in the DVS (see “Establishing an Ethernet Connection  
Using TCPon page 48. When you are setting up the variables for e-mail notification, the  
scaler is the local device and the e-mail server is the remote device.  
IP addresses and octets  
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric  
sub-fields, called “octets,” which are separated by dots  
Typical IP Address:192.168.254.254  
Octets  
(periods) (see the figure at right). Each octet can be  
numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros, up to three digits total per octet, are  
optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.  
Subnet masks and octets  
The subnet mask (figure 58) is used to determine whether the local and remote devices are  
on the same subnet or different subnets. The subnet mask consists of four numeric octets  
separated by dots. Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros, up  
to three digits total per octet, are optional. Each octet typically contains either 255 or 0.  
The octets determine whether or not the same octets of two IP addresses will be compared  
when determining if two devices are on the same subnet.  
255 indicates that this octet will be  
0 indicates that this octet will not be  
compared between two IP addresses.  
compared between two IP addresses.  
Typical Subnet Mask:255.255.0.0  
Octets  
Figure 58. Subnet Mask and Octets  
Determining whether devices are on the same subnet  
To determine the subnet, the local device IP address is compared to the remote device IP  
address (see figure 59). The octets of each address are compared or not, depending on the  
value in the related subnet mask octet.  
If a subnet mask octet contains the value 255, the related octets of the local device  
address and the remote device IP address are unmasked.  
Unmasked octets are compared (indicated by ? in figure 59).  
If the subnet mask octet contains the value 0, the related octets of the local device and  
remote device IP addresses are masked.  
Masked octets are not compared (indicated by X in figure 59).  
If the unmasked octets of the two IP addresses match (indicated by = in example 1 of the  
figure below), the two addresses are on the same subnet.  
If the two unmasked fields do not match (indicated by an unequal sign (≠) in the  
figure below, examples 2 and 3), the addresses are not on the same subnet.  
Example 1  
Local IP Address: 192.168.254.254  
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0 (?.?.X.X)  
Remote IP Address: 192.168.2.25  
Example 2  
Example 3  
192.168.254.254  
255.255.0.0 (?.?.X.X)  
190.190.2.25  
192.168.254.254  
255.255.0.0 (?.?.X.X)  
192.190.2.25  
Match?:  
= . = .X.X Match  
(Same subnet)  
. .X.X No match  
(Different subnet)  
= . .X.X No match  
(Different subnet)
