Optional Input Modules 
 
 Roadster/Mirage S+ User’s Manual F-1 
The following optional input modules can be installed in either option slot in the projector (INPUT 5 or INPUT 6). 
Contact your dealer for a complete an up-to-date listing. 
NOTES:1) Optional interface modules can be hot-swapped into a running projector. 
2) Any audio connectors shown are non-functional in this projector. 
NOTE: Standard with Roadster models. See Section 2. 
The Dual SD/HD-SDI Module enables incoming SD or HD serial digital data to be 
tiled across multiple screen displays, overlapped for extra-bright displays, or 
distributed to additional projectors for multiple, same-image screens. 
 
Dual SD/HD-SDI Features 
◊ Accepts and decodes up to two serial digital inputs 
◊ SMPTE 292, 259M and 372 compatible 
◊ Outputs up to two 10-bit YCbCr 4:2:2 video signals 
◊ Provides input(s) to output(s) loop-through capability 
◊ Supplies interchangeable inputs as part of the Picture-in Picture display 
 
The RGB500 Input Module receives analog RGB input signals from computers or 
other RGB source devices.

RGB500 Features 
◊ Accepts 3, 4, or 5 wire RGB video (sync-on-green, composite sync, or 
separate horizontal and vertical sync), up to 500 MHz bandwidth 
◊ Accepts YPbPr, composite (on green) and Y/C (on red/blue) 
◊ BNC connectors for RGB signal inputs 
 
Connect three-, four-, or five-wire RGB video signals of up to 400 MHz bandwidth—
these are signals typically produced by high-resolution computer or workstations. The 
buffering capability of the module enables the incoming signal to be sent to a remote 
destination. Inputs are 75
Σ terminated. 
 
RGB400BA Features 
◊ Accepts 3, 4, or 5 wire RGB video (sync-on-green, composite sync, or 
separate horizontal and vertical sync) 
◊ Accepts YPbPr, composite (on green) and Y/C (on red/blue) 
◊ BNC connectors for RGB signal inputs 
◊ Buffered signals to a remote destination 
 
The RGB400 ALT Input Module receives analog RGB input signals from computers 
or other RGB source devices. Video inputs are 75
Σ terminated. Video outputs 
provide buffered loop-through to another display device. 
  
 
RGB400 ALT Features 
◊ Accepts 3, 4, or 5 wire RGB video (sync-on-green, composite sync, or 
separate horizontal and vertical sync) 
◊ Accepts YPbPr, composite (on green) and Y/C (on red/blue) 
◊ BNC connectors for RGB signal inputs

The Composite Video Input Module receives either composite video input signals 
from tape or disk players. Video inputs are 75
Σ terminated. Video outputs are 
provided for buffered loop-through to another display device. 
 
NOTES: 1) The S-video portion of this module is non-functional with this projector. 
Connect composite video signals only. 2) This module is not a decoder. 
Composite Video Features 
◊ BNC connectors for composite RGB signals 
◊ 4-pin mini-DIN connectors for S-Video signals
 (NOTE: non-functional) 
◊ Buffered loop-through video outputs 
 
The PC250 Analog Input Module receives analog RGB input signals from IBM PC 
compatibles or Macintosh computers. Video inputs are 75
Σ  terminated. Video 
outputs are provided for buffered loop-through to another display device. 
 
PC250 Analog Features 
◊ Accepts VGA or MAC RGB video 
◊ 15 pin D connectors for video 
◊ Active loop-through video outputs 
NOTES: This interface does not accept VGA and MAC signals simultaneously. 
The DVI Input Module can be installed to display digital video input signals 
conforming to the DVI (Digital Visual Interface) single-channel standard.

Features 
◊ Supports Digital Visual Interface (DVI) single-channel 
◊ Supports VESA Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) 
◊ Provides an active-loop-through using a DVI connector (conforming to the 
DVI Specification) 
The Serial Digital Input Module (SDI) accepts a serial digital 4:2:2 component video 
signal (YCbCr) via a single 
SERIAL IN BNC connector. The signal can loop through 
the 
SERIAL OUT BNC out to another device (such as another projector). Inputs are 
75
Σ terminated. 
 
SDI Features 
◊ Accepts serial digital 4:2:2 component video (YCbCr)  
◊ Provides both a 
SERIAL IN and a SERIAL OUT BNC connector 
◊ Includes status LEDs for signal and error 
◊ SMPTE 259M compatible
