2.3.2 Control method using a VG-870 series generator
To control the VD-1673 using a VG-870 series generator, proceed with the connections and control
in the sequences given below.
 Connections
1. Using the HDMI cable, connect the HDMI output port of the VG-870 series generator
to be used to the input 1 port of the VD-1673.
2. Turn on the power of the VD-1673.
3. Turn on the power of the VG-870 series generator.
* The VG-870 series generator will not recognize the VD-1673 unless the connections
are performed in the sequence described above.
* When exercising control over the VD-1673 using a VG series generator, connect the
generator to the input 1 port of the VD-1673. (The switcher cannot be controlled in
this way if the generator is connected to the input 2 port.)
