Specifications

DVS-2144, DVS-2184 AND DVS-21164
The DVS-2144 is a four-input to four-output video switch, the DVS-2184 is an eight input to four output video
switch and the DVS-21164 is a sixteen input to four output video switch. The inputs; arranged in ascending numerical
order, top to bottom; are on the left side of the rear panel. The outputs 1 to 4 are located to the right of the inputs.
DVS-2144, DVS-2184 and DVS-21164 REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS
CONFIGURATION:
The DVS-2144, DVS-2184 and DVS-21164 all slide into the 2100 system frames from the rear. The DVS/DVM-
1616 has a motherboard that slides into its 1RU frame from the rear. This PCB contains all the input, crosspoint and
output driver circuitry. The following information is provided for custom configuration of the digital video control bus. The
factory settings provide control of the digital video frame normally on level four.
The jumpers provided on the modules are set at factory default conditions. The main module should not require
any reconfiguration for normal operation. A soldered wire jumper is provided for control level selection. In typical
systems, the main video is set to Level 1 and audio is set to Level 2. Therefore, the following defaults are used.
LEVEL JUMPER: This is a soldered wire jumper located near the front edge of the printed circuit board. There are
five holes labeled “C or W2A”, “1”, “2”, “3”, and ”4” to the right of the silk screen label of “LEVELS”.
Model: DVM-1616, Jumper configured for level 4 control (“C” and “4” positions jumped). Typically, this model
functions as an add-on frame to a master system. The master frame may already have level 1 video and/or level 2
audio modules.
OUTPUTS JUMPER (DVS/DVM-1616 ONLY): Do NOT reconfigure this jumper. The DVS/DVM-1616 must use the
“1-16” position.
AUDIO WIRING
Differential Audio connections are provided via 3 position detachable terminal blocks. There is an individual
connector assigned for each input and output. Where audio signals need to be bridged from the audio switch module to
another device, the use of digital, audio distribution amplifiers is recommended.
Refer to the digital, audio module drawings that follow for locations of the input and output connectors. Each
detachable connector is marked for polarity and keyed for insertion of the plug into the receiving header.
