Model AC139A

1. Introduction

1.1 General

Thank you for purchasing the Black Box Model AC139A, a powerful video processor and scaling product. It combines the functions of many products in one compact and versatile unit. It has both high definition analog as well as digital inputs. Two outputs are available

(simultaneously active†), one analog (RGBHV, or Y Pb Pr), and one digital DVI-D (HDMI™ compatible).

Figure 1 – Block Diagram

The user can select the desired input using individual buttons on the front panel, on the included IR-remote, or by issuing ASCII RS-232 commands.

The output resolution can be set can range between 480i to 1080p for

HDTV, or VGA (640x480) to WUXGA (1920X1200) for the PC. The unit uses the latest high-resolution video scaling techniques to produce a superior video output for a crisp image on the output display. Both video outputs can also be mirrored horizontally making it ideal for teleprompting and rear projection systems where the image needs to be

.flipped.

The desired output resolution is set directly using individual buttons on the IR remote, or via unique ASCII RS-232 commands. The front panel can also be used to set the output resolution. A user-friendly on-screendisplay (OSD) is used to control the operation of the device from the front panel. There are also ‘hot-key’ combinations on the front panel to directly set the output to basic PC or HDTV resolutions so that a picture can be displayed on any LCD.

†

For HDMI™ compliance, when the DVI input is selected, and HCDP content protection is detected on the signal, the HD15 analog output is blanked. The front panel input LED will blink when this condition is detected. The Digital DVI output will be active when connected to a

HDCP compliant LCD (such as a display with HDMI™ input).

4

Multi-format HD Video Scaler

The DVI input is HDCP compliant. This allows the unit to be used as an

HDMI™ Video Scaler (HDMI™ audio is not passed through). When the digital input has HDCP encryption, the DVI output must be connected to a HDCP compatible LCD (by definition all displays with HDMI™ input must be HDCP compliant).

Built-in universal power supply keeps the installations clutter free.

The unit can be used to convert and change resolution in the following ways:

Multi-format HD Video Scaler

2. Installation

2.1 Connecting the Video Inputs and Outputs

The video scaler can accept a VGA (analog RGBHV from PC), DVI

(digital video from PC or HDMI™ source), and Component Video (Y Pb

Pr) from any source.

When the source is from an HDMI™ output, an HDMI to DVI cable or adapter is required. Please contact Black Box if you need to purchase this cable.

Two outputs connectors are provided. Both show the selected input at the desired output resolution.

The analog HD15 output mode automatically changes between RGBHV

(PC) to YPbPr (HDTV) based on the output resolution setting. For example if the output is set for SXGA; an RGBHV output of 1280x1024 is produced, but when the output is set for 1080p a Y Pb Pr signal is output and for connecting to compatible LCD, an HD15 to 3 RCA cable would be required.

Figure 2 - Rear Panel

Video cables for connecting the I/O ports are not supplied with the unit.

If you would like to mount the unit in a rack, please contact Black Box to purchase a rack-mount accessory kit for the unit.

Model AC139A

Video Inputs

Y Pb Pr: This is also known as Component Video input (analog) and on some equipment it may be labeled as YCbCr. Since this input supports all interlace and progressive resolutions from 480i to 1080p, you can connect it to both legacy and new equipment alike as long as it has component video output. For a list of supported resolutions, please see

Specifications Section titled “Supported Input Formats” found later in this manual. For example; if you are using the DVI output of the scaler to connect to the HDMI input of an HDTV, you could use the YPbPr input to connect your legacy DVD player, or PlayStation™ equipment to your

HDTV.

VGA: This is the analog RGBHV signal from a PC. A wide range of resolutions from VGA to WUXGA is supported. For a list of supported resolutions, please see Specifications Section titled “Supported Input

Formats” found later in this manual. This input provides a convenient way to display your PC’s video without losing clarity on any TV or

HDTV as long as the TV has either HDMI™ or component inputs. Since the AC139A uses state of the art video scaling, often you will achieve a sharper image on your LCD even if it has a VGA input!

DVI: This is the digital input to the Scaler. You can connect to the DVI-

D or DVI-I outputs of any PC. The DVI input of the unit supports HDCP encryption. This means that it is compatible with Content Protected

HDMI™ video sources. However, the audio of HDMI source is not processed through and you should configure and use the separate audio output of your HDMI™ source. The DVI input of the scaler can handle most HDTV and PC resolutions. For a list, please see Specifications

Section titled “Supported Input Formats” found later in this manual.

Note about DVI input Cable

If you will be connecting to an HDMI™ source you will either need an

HDMI to DVI cable or an HDMI to DVI adapter.

Figure 4

Example of HDMI™ to DVI Cable

If you will be connecting to a DVI source you will then need a male to male DVI cable. DVI-D cables will work since they do not have the extra pins that DVI-I cables have, but since the AC139A utilizes a connector with all the pin positions you could use a DVI-I cable as long as your source also has all the pin positions.

Multi-format HD Video Scaler

Video Outputs

VGA: This is a dual purpose output. Depending on the output resolution you set it will output either a PC compatible (VGA to WUXGA)

RGBHV signal or a HDTV compatible (480p to 1080p) YPbPr signal.

If you want to connect this connector to a PC compatible LCD, you will need a HD15 male to male cable. On the other hand if you will be connecting this to the component input of a display, you will require an

HD15 to 3 RCA cable.

Note about HDCP

For HDMI™ compliance, if the input is from an HDMI™ source with content protection, the VGA output is blanked and front panel LED blinks.

DVI: This is the TMDS digital output of the Scaler. You can connect this to any PC compatible LCD with a DVI compatible connector input, or any HDTV with a HDMI™ compatible connector input using the appropriate cable.

2.2 Other Connections

If you are not getting any image on your display, it could be that the output resolution setting of the AC139A is not supported by your LCD.

Using serial commands or the IR remote, one can quickly switch between various output resolutions. However since the front panel operation relies on OSD menu for navigation, it is very difficult to change the output setting from the front panel if you cannot see the OSD.

Therefore to quickly jump to a basic resolution that is supported by virtually all displays, is a great feature.

If you press and hold down the MENU button, and then hit the ▲ button you get a XGA (RGBHV) output which is supported by most PC compatible displays.

If you press and hold down the MENU button, and then hit the ▼ button you get a 480p (YPbPr) output which is supported by most HDTV compatible displays.

5. Troubleshooting

There are no field serviceable parts or circuits in the device. If you think that the device is malfunctioning, please first try to reset to the factory default settings (using the RESET button on the IR remote control), and set the output either to XGA (Press MENU + ▲) or 480p (Press MENU

+ ▼) to obtain an image on your LCD.

If you are having trouble displaying a picture from an HDMI™ source, ensure that the display device connected to the AC139A is HDCP compliant.

For HDMI™ compliance, when the DVI input is selected, and HCDP content protection is detected on the signal, the HD15 analog output is blanked. The front panel input LED will blink when this condition is detected. The Digital DVI output will be active when connected to a
