Setup guide — sw rgbhv series switchers, Installation, Operation
This guide provides quick start instructions for an experienced installer
to set up and operate the SW RGBHV and SW RGBHV A
switchers.
Installation
Step 1 — Mounting
Turn off or disconnect all equipment power sources
and mount the switcher as required.
Step 2 — Inputs
• Connect up to 2, 4 or 6 RGBHV, RGBS,
RGsB, or RsGsBs video or component
video inputs to the Input connectors.
• Audio models — Connect up to 2,
4 or 6 stereo or mono audio inputs
to the 5-pin
captive screw
connectors.
Step 3 — Outputs
•
Connect an RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, or RsGsBs video or component video display or
other device to the Output connectors. Make connections as shown for step 3.
• Audio models —Connect a balanced or unbalanced stereo audio or mono audio
device to the 5-pin captive screw connector.
C
Connect the sleeves to ground (Gnd). Connecting the sleeve to a negative (-) terminal
will damage the audio output circuits.
Step 4 — Remote port
Connect a host device, such as a computer or touch
panel control via RS-232, OR connect a remote contact
closure device to the switcher
via the 9-pin D connector for
remote control of the switcher.
To command a switch under
contact closure control,
momentarily short an input’s
pin on the remote connector to
ground (the switcher must be in
normal [manual] mode).
N
For complete descriptions of remote control of the switcher using the applicable Simple
Instruction Set (SIS
™
) commands and/or the Universal Switcher Control Program, refer to
the full
SW RGBHV Switchers User’s Manual
.
Step 5
— Power
Plug a standard IEC power cord between the switcher’s power connector and a 100 VAC to
240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz power source.
Operation
Switch mode
Set the rear panel switch to Auto for autoswitch mode (the switcher automatically
switches to the highest-numbered input with a sync signal present) or Normal for
manual switch mode. The front panel Auto Switch Active LED lights when the
switcher is in autoswitch mode.
Switch inputs in normal switch mode
Press and release the desired input button.
Adjust audio level (audio models)
You can set the input level of audio gain or attenuation via the front panel or the Remote port
to be compatible with a wide range of line level sources. Individual input audio levels can be
adjusted so that there is no noticeable volume difference among sources. This function also
eliminates the need for separate preamps or attenuators, when used with professional (higher
line level) and consumer (lower line level) audio equipment.
Adjust the audio from the front panel as follows:
1
. Press and release the desired input button.
2
. Press and hold the Audio Conf./Save button until the Audio Conf./
Save LED begins to blink. The approximate level is indicated by the
input LEDs and the polarity by the ±dB LEDs.
N
The input LEDs display the approximate level of attenuation.
The +dB LED indicates the level is gain (positive).
The - dB LED indicates the level is attenuation (negative).
For details about reading the displayed value, refer to the
full
SW RGBHV Switchers User’s Manual, available at
www.extron.com
.
3
. Press and release the
>
and
<
buttons to increase and decrease the audio level by 1 dB
per push of the button, or press and hold the buttons to increase or decrease the level
by 3 dB per second.
4
. Press and release the Audio Conf./Save button to exit. The Audio
Conf./Save LED goes out.
Do not tin the wires!
