Operating Your Composite / s-Video / Audio Switcher

7.2 Switching and Distributing

Your VS-812 is both a switcher and a DA. The VS-812 simultaneously:

• Switches a converted signal to two video acceptors of the other format

• Distributes an input signal from the video and audio source to two video

acceptors of the same format

For example,

Figure 16

illustrates how the composite video and audio source

# 3 simultaneously:

• Switches (and converts) to s-Video Acceptor 1 at the Y/C video OUT 1

connector and to s-Video Acceptor 2 at the Y/C video OUT 2 connector

• Distributes to CV Video Acceptor 1 at the composite video OUT 1

connector and to CV Video Acceptor 2 at the composite video OUT 2

To use your VS-812 as a 1:2+2 CV DA and an s-Video (Y/C) DA, as the

example in Figure 17 illustrates, do the following:

1. Connect the sources and acceptors, as follows:

 A composite video source to CV IN # 3

 A s-Video (Y/C) video source to Y/C video IN # 5

 A composite video acceptor to CV OUT # 1 and another composite

video acceptor to CV OUT # 2

 A s-Video (Y/C) acceptor to Y/C OUT # 1 and another s-Video (Y/C)

acceptor to Y/C OUT # 2

2. Set the INPUT SETUP switches, as follows:

 Pull the INPUT SETUP switch # 3 DOWN

 Pull the INPUT SETUP switch # 5 UP
