3.1 Modes of Operation
Scan Mode - Will cycle through and select each S-Video signal for a
programmed number of seconds (1 to 60), and then switch to the next S-Video
input.
Normal Mode - S-VIDEO inputs are selected based on user input (default).
The VS4-YC can only be in one of these modes at a time.
3.2 Front-Panel Switches
The first function of the front panel buttons is to switch from one S-Video signal
to another. Just press the button and the S-Video signal you selected will be
routed to the output. If there is no S-Video signal to be displayed then you will
see a black screen. The VS4-YC will enter Normal Mode any time a single front
panel button is pressed.
The second use of the front panel buttons is to put the VS4-YC into Scan Mode.
Press buttons 3 and 4 simultaneously and the VS4-YC will enter Scan Mode.
The time interval between switching will be the time interval last specified via
Hyper Terminal. If no interval has been specified then the default is 5 seconds.
The third use of the front panel buttons is to reset the VS4-YC to the factory
default settings. Press button 1 and 4 simultaneously for 3 seconds. This will
turn off scan mode and set the scanning interval to the default time of 5 seconds.
This will also un-blank the outputs.
