Connecting the SWP123 Switcher
The SWP123 Presentation Switcher can be connected to as many as 12 input
devices simultaneously and to up to 3 outputs simultaneously. Follow the steps
below and see the installation example in figure 2-3.
1
If the switcher is to be mounted, see Mounting the Switcher, earlier in this
chapter.
2
Turn off power to the switcher and all other devices that will be connected.
3
Using inputs 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the VGA, S-video, and Video (composite)
groups, attach up to 12 video input devices to the switcher.
4
Connect output display devices to the switcher using VGA, S-video, or
Composite Video outputs.
5
Connect up to 12 stereo audio sources to audio inputs 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the
VGA, S-video, or Composite Video audio groups. See Audio input and output
later in this chapter.
6
If using a computer or host controller for remote control, connect the host’s
RS-232 cable to the 3.8 mm, 5-pole captive screw serial port (Serial Port A) of
the switcher. For an RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 pinout table and DIP switch
settings, see Remote Control Port (RS-232/RS-422/RS-485) in chapter 5.
