Progressive Scan Card 

 
The optional Progressive Scan Card is recognized by the MAP V2.0 automatically and 
needs  no  special  system  setup.  The  configuration  of  the  Progressive  Scan  Card  refers 
only  to  simple  adjustments  to  meet  the  needs  of  the  video  display  (video 
beamer/projector,  plasma  TV  etc)  connected  to  the  MAP.  The  Progressive  Scan  Card 
offers several video inputs that are selectable as easy as the Cinch (Composite) and S-
Video  inputs  using  the  '

Set  Video  Input

'  function  in  the  '

Channel  Setup

'  or 

'

Video Setup

' menu. Please find a detailed description in the following. 

 

Using video inputs with installed Progressive Scan Card: 

You  can  connect  and  use  the  Video-  3  and  S-Video  inputs  4  of  the  MAP  with  a 
Progressive Scan Card installed in the same way as without the card. The video signal of 
the currently activated video input is fed to and processed by the Progressive Scan Card 
internally. 
If  the  Progressive  Scan  Card  is  installed,  additional  video  inputs  are  available.  You 
select  these  inputs  as  usual  using  function  '

Set  Video  Input

'.  You  get  to  this 

function by entering either the '

Channel Setup

' or the '

Video Setup

' menu. If you are on 

screen page no. 5 in the device menu MAP of the remote control, press the following 
keys to get to the function '

Set Video Input

': 

Video Setup

 

à

 

 

   Or: 

Channel Setup

 

à

 

 

 
Now  use  keys 

  and 

  to  select  the  desired  video  input  for  the  currently  active 

audio input. 
 

Note:

 To each audio input the user can assign a video input separately. The easiest way 

to achieve this, is to assign the video input while you setup the individual settings (like 
level  adjustments,  name  assignment,  decoder  settings  etc)  for  each  audio  input  (see 
chapter 

'Preferences / Setup'

, section 

'Menu Channel Setup'

). 

 
Please  consult  the  user's  manual  of  your  video  source  (DVD  player,  LD  player,  VCR 
etc), which video format is available at its video outputs and choose a compatible video 
input  of  the  MAP.  The  following  video  inputs  are  selectable  for  each  audio  input 
individually, if the Progressive Scan Card is installed:
