Contemporary Research 9 QMOD-HDSC

Scaling Tools

The QMOD-HDSC will automatically identify and display PC/Component signals that match the

listed resolutions. From there, you can refine the scanning and formatting of the signals with the

tools below.

- You can choose to output the video at 1080i or 720p, the unit will up and downscale

- If there is no signal present, the QMOD will display “No Signal”

- If the QMOD-HDSC can’t match the signal to the resolution list, it will display “Unknown Sig”

CLK Phase

This menu tweaks how the scaler scans the video.

Select values 0-7 and select the best scan result.

Scale Horizontal

The internal in-stream scaling engine handles a number of tasks for you – converting VGA to

video 1080i/720p, shaping VGA resolutions to 16:9, and compensating for overscanning by TV

sets. For all that, the process is very intuitive and easy to perform.

At the Horizontal menu, press the SELECT button to start the process – you will see a white bar in

the middle of the QMOD display.

- Up zooms the video horizontally, while Down scales the video down

- Left moves the video left, Right moves the image right

- The solution is automatically saved for that resolution. Repeat for other resolutions, if needed

Scale Vertical

At the Vertical menu, press the SELECT button to start the process – you will see a white bar in

the middle of the QMOD display.

- Up moves the video up, while Down moves the video down

- Left zooms the video out vertically, Right scales the video down

- The solution is automatically saved for that resolution. Repeat for other resolutions, if needed

Measure

Displays the horizontal and vertical frequency of the input, for example:

o H:33.715K V: 29.97 for 1080i

o H:67,498K V 60.00 for 1080p

o H:44.955K V: 59.94 for 720p

o H:31.469K V: 59.94 for 480p

o H:15.734K V: 29.97 for 480i

If you see an “Unknown Sig” message on your QMOD, note the signal values in Measure and

call CR Support. We are constantly updating our list of resolutions.
