Stand Alone Operation
If you plan to use your System 8/10 PLUS in a system where it will not be
connected to a projector, it must be configured for RS-232 mode. The switcher
settings are shown on the following page.
Address Switch Settings
For installations with one switcher, configure the System 8/10 PLUS as a master
switcher by setting the address switch on the rear panel. If multiple switchers are
being used in a master/slave configuration, refer to Chapter 5.
Configuration Setup
System 8/10 PLUS switchers are shipped from the Extron factory configured for
the projector brand specified by the user at the time of the order.
Labels are placed in three locations:
1. On the shipping container
2. On the rear panel
3. Inside the front panel access cover lower left (See picture on next page.)
Switcher configuration is done with switch settings behind the front access panel.
Information is printed on a label inside the front panel access cover for setting up
most applications. The label includes a place for the user to mark the
configuration for which the System 8/10 PLUS is set.
This chapter covers the setup and installation of the System 8/10 PLUS with
specific projectors and displays. This includes instructions for changing the
configuration switches. If your application includes connecting more than one
switcher, you will also need to refer to Chapter 5.
Removing the Access Cover
If it is necessary to check or change any configuration switches, the Front Panel
Access Cover must be removed. This is done with a small, flat-blade
screwdriver.
