VPx Overview  
smñ=lîÉêîáÉï  
The following topics are discussed in this section:  
fåíêçÇìÅíáçå=íç=smñ  
The Encore Video Processor is a compact chassis that provides Encore’s input and output  
circuitry. Two models are available:  
The “standard” Video Processor (VP) is a full-featured unit that includes all input,  
output, genlock and link circuitry.  
The VPx is an economical VP with a reduced set of inputs (DVI only). The VPx is  
ideal for widescreen configurations, and for special widescreen “preview”  
configurations. VPx includes all output and link circuitry, but no genlock circuitry,  
and only a small subset of the standard VP’s input circuitry.  
In a widescreen configuration, a VPx cannot function in a standalone manner, but  
must always work downstream of a standard VP. Here, a VPx cannot be the first  
processor in an Encore configuration.  
In the special widescreen “preview” configuration, a VPx can be used as a  
standalone destination that accepts DVI input signals only — but no other input  
types are accepted, and no genlock circuitry is provided.  
Both units provide a 3RU rack-mount chassis that can be configured with one, two or three  
M/E (mixer) boards. One or two M/E systems can be upgraded with additional M/E boards.

DVI Input B  
On each M/E, one input connection is provided for layer A, one for layer B, and two “Link”  
connectors for inter-Processor communications. Following are descriptions of each M/E  
connector on a VPx.  
a) DVI Input A  
One DVI-I connector is provided for both digital and analog inputs to the M/E’s  
Layer A and background channel.  
~
Digital — connect a digital graphics source directly, or connect the  
output of a digital graphics router.  
~
Analog — using the appropriate adapter cable, connect an analog  
source directly.  
Refer to the “M/E Input Notes” section on page 14 for important details on the use  
of this connector’s analog component.  
b) Source Link Out  
One DVI connector is provided for the M/E’s Source Link Output. For wide  
screen and multi-screen applications, this connector loops your inputs to the next  
VP or VPx in the chain. Because all analog and digital inputs reside in the digital  
domain, each “link” output loops those inputs to the next Processor’s scalers.  
An M/E’s Source Link Output must always be connected to its associated M/E  
Source Link Input on the next chassis, and never cross-routed.  
Please note:  
~
~
In a multi-chassis configuration, the link can extend to all chassis.  
In all cases, the looped inputs are “pre-scaler.”  
c) Source Link In  
One DVI connector is provided for the M/E’s Source Link Input. For wide screen  
and multi-screen applications, this connector accepts the looped outputs from the

previous VP or VPx in the chain. An M/E’s Source Link Input must always be  
connected to its associated M/E Source Link Output on the previous chassis,  
and never cross-routed.  
In Chapter 3 “Installation” of the Encore Presentation  
System User’s Guide, refer to the “Program and Source  
Link Connections” section for details on the link connectors  
in wide screen configurations.  
Note  
d) DVI Input B  
One DVI-I connector is provided for both digital and analog inputs to the M/E’s  
Layer B and background channel.  
~
Digital — connect a digital graphics source directly to this input, or  
connect the output of a digital graphics router.  
~
Analog — using the appropriate adapter cable, connect an analog  
source directly to this input.  
Refer to the “M/E Input Notes” section on page 14 for details on the use of this  
connector’s analog component.  
jLb=`çååÉÅíçê=mêáçêáíó  
Depending on your VP or VPx configuration, the M/E connectors on the rear of the chassis  
do not necessarily relate 1:1 to the layer buttons in the Controller’s Layer Control Section.  
Please note:  
The Controller’s layer buttons are arranged left-to-right in order of visual priority,  
from the lowest (Mixer 1) to the highest (Mixer 3).  
The M/E boards are arranged in order of electronic priority, from the lowest (M/E  
3) to the highest (M/E 1).  
Electronic priority does not equate 1:1 to visual priority, with regard to the silk-  
screened labels on the Controller.  
With this in mind, the information below lists how the physical connectors relate to the  
various mixers on different VP and VPx configurations. Keep this correlation in mind when  
you are making rear-panel connections.  
In a 3 M/E system:  
~
M/E 1 connectors are the highest priority. They appear as Mixer 3 on  
the Controller. The DSK will be connected to the M/E 1 board.  
~
~
M/E 2 connectors have middle priority. They appear as Mixer 2.  
M/E 3 connectors are the lowest priority. They appear as Mixer 1.  
Background sources will be connected to the M/E 3 board.  
In a 2 M/E system:  
~
~
~
M/E 1 connectors are the highest priority, and appear as Mixer 2. The  
DSK will be connected to the M/E 1 board.  
M/E 2 connectors are the lowest priority, and appear as Mixer 1.  
Background sources will be connected to the M/E 2 board.  
M/E 3 connectors are not installed.

båÅçêÉ=smñ=fåëí~ää~íáçå=dìáÇÉ  
VPx Hardware  
In a 1 M/E system:  
~
M/E 1 connector priorities are relative to the connectors being used:  
The DVI Input A or Analog Input A connector could be set up  
as a Background input (lowest priority).  
The DVI Input B or Analog Input B connector could be setup  
as a DSK input (highest priority).  
This leaves the other connectors to fall in between Background and  
DSK. The rule stating that “A” connectors are lower in priority than “B”  
connectors still holds.  
~
M/E 2 and 3 connectors are not installed.  
jLb=fåéìí=kçíÉë  
Please note the following important points regarding M/E inputs:  
Single Processor Configurations — In the special widescreen “preview”  
configuration, a VPx can be used as a standalone destination that accepts DVI  
input signals only.  
Multiple Processor Configurations — In these configurations, you only need to  
connect inputs to the first VP. Inputs are automatically looped to all other VP and  
VPx units via the Source Link connections.  
DVI-I Connectors — There are two DVI-I connectors for each M/E (A and B), and  
each contains a digital and an analog input. Depending upon your application,  
you can use the input for a scaled or an unscaled source:  
~
The “digital” side accepts connections from a standard DVI output or  
digital graphic router. This side can be used as both a scaled input  
source or as an unscaled Background / DSK source.  
~
Using a breakout cable, the “analog” side accepts analog connections.  
This side is designed for inputting the system’s unscaled sources —  
Background and DSK.  
The lowest priority M/E in your system must be used for  
inputting the Background source.  
The highest priority M/E in your system must be used for  
inputting the DSK source.  
mêçÖê~ã=lìíéìí=kçíÉë  
Please note the following important points regarding the Processor’s program outputs:  
HD/SDI Outputs — For the HD/SDI output, you can set the output to be SDI  
(SMPTE 259M-C, NTSC or PAL) or HD-SDI (SMPTE 292M, HDTV). When you  
set this output resolutions, all output connectors will output that same resolution.  
DVI Program Outputs — DVI Program outputs are digital only. They do not have  
analog connections.  
Program 1 Outputs — Edge feathering and data doubling are present on all  
Program 1 Outputs, provided that those features are enabled in the system’s  
Output Menu.

Use the following steps to install a wide screen Encore configuration that includes VPx:  
1. Software Version — Prior to connecting your VPx processor(s), ensure that  
software version 1.22 (or higher) is installed in your Encore Controller. Refer to  
Appendix C, “Upgrading Software” in the Encore Presentation System User’s  
Guide for complete upgrade instructions.  
2. Follow the unpacking procedures as listed in the “Unpacking and Inspection”  
section on page 15.  
3. Refer to the “Technical Specifications” section on page 28 for electrical and  
mechanical details.  
4. Refer to the “VPx Hardware” section on page 8 for all connector locations.  
5. For each VPx, follow the rack mount procedures as outlined in the “Rack-Mount  
Installation” section on page 15.  
6. Ethernet Connections — a totally “local” network connection is recommended.  
Connect the VP(s), VPx(s) and Controller to the Switch.  
7. Direct Source Connections — if you elect to use direct connections, in place of  
(or in addition to) router connections:  
a. Connect the desired “direct” sources to each M/E’s input connectors on  
each VPx. In a wide screen system, scaled sources only connect to  
Processor 1. “Links” carry the signals to the other VPx units.  
b. Unscaled Backgrounds must originate from computers with multi-head  
graphics cards, and connect to the same input on each VPx.  
S To connect an unscaled background source in a triple processor  
system (each VPx with three M/Es):  
Connect the computer’s “head 1” to processor 1, input 3A

Installation  
Connect the computer’s “head 2” to processor 2, input 3A  
Connect the computer’s “head 3” to processor 3, input 3A  
Input 3A resides on the lowest priority M/E in a 3 M/E system.  
To connect a second background, use input 3B.  
Note  
c. The DSK source may originate from a computer with a multi-head  
graphics card, but it is not a requirement.  
To use a multi-head graphics card for the DSK, connect it to the same  
input on each VPx — to the highest priority M/E (M/E 1).  
S To connect an unscaled DSK source in a triple processor system  
(each processor with three M/Es):  
Connect the computer’s “head 1” to processor 1, input 1A  
Connect the computer’s “head 2” to processor 2, input 1A  
Connect the computer’s “head 3” to processor 3, input 1A  
Input 1A resides on the highest priority M/E in a 3 M/E Encore  
system. If you wish to connect a backup DSK, use input 1B.  
Note  
8. Output Connections —  
a. For each VPx, connect the analog or digital Preview Output to the input  
of the associated Preview Monitor.  
b. For each VPx, connect the analog or digital Program 2 Output to the  
input of the associated Program Monitor.  
c. For each VPx, connect the analog or digital Program 1 Output to the  
input of the associated projector.  
d. Connect the Program Out HD/SDI connector to an SDI or HDTV monitor  
as required, or to the proper video distribution equipment.  
This output only works if the selected output resolution is a  
valid SDI or HD/SDI format.  
Note  
9. Link Connections — in a widescreen application, the Program Link and Source  
Link connections are used to connect processors together, and bridge inputs and  
outputs for the proper “overlap” between projectors. In Chapter 3 of the Encore  
Presentation System User’s Guide, refer to the “Program and Source Link  
Connections” section for details.  
10. Power Connection — connect AC power cords to all Encore and peripheral  
equipment, and then to AC outlets.

The figure below illustrates a “triple” wide screen configuration that includes a VPx, which is  
used to create a combined wide screen program/preview display.  
Please note:  
Because a three M/E VPx provides up to 6 PIPs, this configuration is ideal for  
displaying a double or triple wide screen setup on a single monitor.  
This is the only configuration in which a VPx can be used in a  
single processor, standalone mode.  
Note  
For configurations using more than three processors, additional dedicated  
“preview” processors may be required, along with additional monitors.

Use the following steps to install a wide screen “stack” configuration:  
It is recommended that each stack consists of two “fully  
loaded” processors, each with three M/Es. If necessary, you  
can use a mis-matched configuration (e.g., two M/Es in the  
bottom stack, three in the top), but the top stack must always  
have three M/Es installed. In this way, your stacked set will  
never have anything less than four M/Es available.  
Important  
1. Software Version — Prior to connecting your VPx processor(s), ensure that  
software version 1.22 (or higher) is installed in your Encore Controller. Refer to  
Appendix C, “Upgrading Software” in the Encore Presentation System User’s  
Guide for complete upgrade instructions.  
2. Follow the unpacking procedures as listed in the “Unpacking and Inspection”  
section on page 15.  
3. Refer to the “Technical Specifications” section on page 28 for electrical and  
mechanical details.  
4. Refer to the “VPx Hardware” section on page 8 for all connector locations.  
5. For each VPx, follow the rack mount procedures as outlined in the “Rack-Mount  
Installation” section on page 15.  
Remember that master units (ID#1 and ID#2) must be VP, not  
VPx. “Slave” units can be VP or VPx.

Installation  
6. Ethernet Connections — a totally “local” network connection is recommended.  
Connect the VP(s), VPx(s) and Controller to the Switch.  
7. Direct Source Connections — if you elect to use direct connections, in place of  
(or in addition to) router connections:  
a. Connect “direct” sources to each M/E’s input connectors on each stack.  
Note that in a wide screen stack system, scaled sources only connect to  
stack #1. The “link” connections carry the signals to the other stacks:  
On stack #1 only, connect “direct” sources 1 - 6 to each M/E’s  
input connectors on the “bottom stack” processor.  
On stack #1 only, connect “direct” sources 7 - 12 to each M/E’s  
input connectors on the “top stack” processor.  
b. Unscaled Backgrounds must originate from computers with multi-head  
graphics cards, and connect to the same input on each “bottom stack”  
processor.  
S To connect an unscaled background source in a double widescreen  
stack system (each processor with three M/Es):  
On the first stack, connect the computer’s “head 1” to the  
bottom stack processor, input 3A  
On the second stack, connect the computer’s “head 2” to the  
bottom stack processor, input 3A  
Input 3A resides on the lowest priority M/E in a 3 M/E system.  
To connect a second background source, use input 3B on  
both stacks.  
Note  
c. The DSK source may originate from a computer with a multi-head  
graphics card, but it is not a requirement.  
S Connecting a single-head graphics card to processor 4 only would  
enable a bug to be placed only in that screen space.  
The DSK Setup Menu allows you to pick an individual ID  
within a widescreen on which to perform DSK setup.  
Note  
If you elect to use a multi-head graphics card for the DSK, ensure that  
you connect to the same input on each processor — to the highest  
priority M/E.  
S To connect an unscaled DSK source in a double widescreen stack  
system (each processor with three M/Es):  
On the first stack, connect the computer’s “head 1” to the top  
stack processor, input 1A  
On the second stack, connect the computer’s “head 2” to the  
top stack processor, input 1A  
Input 1A resides on the highest priority M/E in a 3 M/E Encore  
system. If you wish to connect a backup (or alternate) DSK,  
use input 1B on both stacks.

8. Stack Interconnections —  
a. On the first stack:  
Connect the bottom stack’s DVI Preview Output to the top  
stack’s Background 1 input (3A).  
Connect the bottom stack’s DVI Program Output to the top  
stack’s Background 2 input (3B).  
b. On the second stack:  
Connect the bottom stack’s DVI Preview Output to the top  
stack’s Background 1 input (3A).  
Connect the bottom stack’s DVI Program Output to the top  
stack’s Background 2 input (3B).  
9. Output Connections — all output monitor and projector connections originate  
from the “top stack” processors:  
a. On each “top stack” processor, connect the analog or digital Preview  
Output to the input of the associated Preview Monitor.  
b. On each “top stack” processor, connect the analog or digital Program 2  
Output to the input of the associated Program Monitor.  
c. On each “top stack” processor, connect the analog or digital Program 1  
Output to the input of the associated projector.  
d. Connect the “top stack” Program Out HD/SDI connector to an SDI or  
HDTV monitor, or to the proper video distribution equipment.  
This output only works if the selected output resolution is a  
valid SDI or HD/SDI format.  
Note  
e. If you elect to output in an interlaced format (e.g., 1920 x 1080i), connect  
each top stack’s H Sync Output signal (located on the Program 2 Out  
Analog connector) to the Genlock input on the bottom stack.  
Using a (customer supplied) VGA to 5xBNC breakout cable,  
the H Sync Output line is typically a white or gray cable.  
Note  
10. Link Connections — in a widescreen application, the Program Link and Source  
Link connections are used to connect processors together, and bridge inputs and  
outputs for the proper “overlap” between projectors. In Chapter 3 of the Encore  
Presentation System User’s Guide, refer to the “Program and Source Link  
Connections” section for details.  
11. Power Connection — connect AC power cords to all Encore and peripheral  
equipment, and then to AC outlets.
