Delay Adjust (skew adjustment) control — This control delays the selected

red, green, or blue video signal by up to 62 nanoseconds. The delay is applied in
incremental, 2-nanosecond, steps. Rotate the control counterclockwise to reduce the
delay or clockwise to increase the delay.

The control’s movement is smooth; it does not have mechanical steps or high- and
low-limit stops.

Watch the displayed image to observe the steps of delay.

The Delay Red, Green, or Blue LED (g) (whichever is selected) flashes to indicate

that the control has reached the minimum (counterclockwise rotation) or maximum
(clockwise rotation) limit.

i

Level control — The Level control alters the video output voltage to affect the

brightness of the displayed image. Adjust the knob while viewing the displayed image
to set the level/boost that provides the best picture quality.

j

Peaking control — Peaking affects the sharpness of a picture. Increased peaking

can compensate for mid- and high-frequency detail loss from low bandwidth
system components or capacitance in long cables. The minimum setting (at the
counterclockwise limit) provides no peaking. The maximum setting (at the clockwise
limit) provides 100% peaking. Adjust this control while viewing the displayed image
to obtain the optimum picture sharpness.

Switch Mode

In auto switch mode, the switcher automatically switches to the highest-numbered
input with video sync signals present. Input selection, by the front panel buttons or the
Remote port, is blocked while in auto switch mode. However, the front panel LEDs remain
functional and the Input 1 through Input 3 buttons can be used to view or change the
mode.

NOTES: • The switcher must be in normal (manual) mode for contact closure to work.

• Audio breakaway (available via SIS or Windows-based control program

control only) is disabled in auto switch mode; audio always follows video.

Turn auto switch mode on as follows:

1.

Press and hold the Mode (Input 1) button.

2.

Press and release the Auto (Input 3) button. The Auto Switch Active LED lights.

3.

Release the Mode button.

NOTE: Manual switching is disabled.

Turn auto switch mode off as follows:

1.

Press and hold the Mode (Input 1) button.

2.

Press and release the Normal (Input 2) button. The Auto Switch Active LED goes off.

3.

Release the Mode button.

NOTE: When the switcher exits auto switch mode, it deselects all inputs (no

output).
