Connecting To Video Devices
Video sources and output devices (such as monitors, or recorders) may be connected to the
routing switchers through the BNC type connectors located on the back of the unit. Keep in mind
that the output signal format will be that of the input signal format.
All signal connections that use more than one cable interconnecting between devices should be
of equal timing length (example: cables between a camera and the switcher should have the
same time delay).
The rear panel of the frame is laid out in the most logical fashion possible. The individual
channels are color-coded. The white and yellow conventions, used for the H and V sync
channels, are arbitrary and these two channels are interchangeable. Each channel can have only
“H” or “V” signals – not both. All inputs are factory set for 75 ohm termination. The sync (“H” “V”)
input terminations can be changed to 510 ohm by changing the dip switches located on the rear
panel of the router. The upper row of switches applies to the “white” row of inputs with the lower
row of switches applying to the “yellow” row. Unused outputs do not need to be terminated.
Connecting To Audio Devices
Audio sources and output devices (such as amplifiers or recorders) are connected to the
switchers through the terminal block connectors located at, and marked, on the rear of the
switcher.
