4 Connecting the VS-12DPIR i Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your VS-12DPIR. After connecting your VS-12DPIR, connect its power and then switch on the power to each device. To connect the VS-12DPIR, as the example in Figure 2 shows, do the following: 1. Connect the DP source (for example, a PC with a DP output) to the INPUT DP connector. 2.
4.1 Controlling via the REMOTE Terminal Block Connector The contact closure remote control pins operate in a similar way to the output SELECT button. Using the contact closure remote control lets you select an output by remote control. To do so, temporarily connect the required input (OUT1 or OUT2) pin on the REMOTE terminal block connector to the G (ground) pin, as illustrated in the examples in Figure 3.
