Introduction
The Extron DVI-RGB 150 DVI to analog RGB video interface
DVI-RGB 150
converts DVI digital video to analog RGB video. The interface
accepts a single link of digital-only Digital Visual Interface
(DVI-D) video from a computer, or other digital video source
device, on a standard 29-pin female DVI-I connector. The
interface outputs analog RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB video on
female BNC connectors. The interface also buffers the DVI
input and loops it through on a DVI connector for use by a local
monitor (figure 1-1).

Installation Overview
Mounting the Interface
The video source uses the bidirectional Display Data Channel
(DDC) to determine the video resolution and refresh rate. The
video source can obtain the rate directly from the local monitor
or the user can select among 32 resolutions and refresh rates
built into the interface.
Rear Panel Connections and Controls
Front Panel Controls and Indicator
Operation
Level and peaking adjustments allow the user to enhance the
RGB video output for transmission across long distances.
The DVI-RGB 150 is rack mountable and has an internal
switching power supply for worldwide power compatibility.

At the minimum level setting (the counterclockwise limit
of this control), the interface outputs video at 0.5 Vp-p.
Ensure that the computer and local monitor are connected
to the DVI-RGB 150, and the DVI-RGB 150 and local
monitor have power applied, before applying power to the
computer. If the other devices are not turned on before the
computer is, the image will not appear.
At the control’s midpoint, the interface outputs video at
0.7 Vp-p (unity level).
At the maximum level setting (the clockwise limit of this
control), the interface outputs video at 1.45 Vp-p.
Select a level setting of 0.7 V and above to compensate for the
signal level decrease that occurs with long cables. Set the level
at the maximum setting for cable lengths over 500 feet.
Level Boost has no affect on the DVI output of the Buffered
Loop-through connector.
N
Peak(ing) control — The Peaking control affects the sharpness
of the picture on the RGB output. Increased peaking can
compensate for detail (mid- and high-frequency) loss from low
bandwidth system components or capacitance in long cables.
The minimum setting (at the counterclockwise limit) provides
no peaking. The maximum setting (at the clockwise limit)
provides 100% peaking. Adjust this control while viewing the
displayed image to obtain the optimum picture sharpness.

Peaking has no affect on the DVI output of the Buffered

DVI signals run at a very high frequency and are especially
prone to bad video connections, too many adapters, or excessive
cable length. To avoid the loss of an image or jitter, follow these
guidelines:
•
Do not exceed 16.4 feet (5 meters) on the input or buffered
loop-through of the interface.
•
Use only the cable designed for DVI signals supplied by
Extron.
•
•
Limit or avoid the use of adapters.
Use only approved DVI connectors.
Appendix A

Use only cables specifically intended for DVI
interfaces. Use of non-DVI cables or modified
cables can cause the DVI-RGB 150 to fail.
