1. Introduction
1.1 General
This manual covers both sender (Model SW-VRS232-2S) and remote (Model
SW-VRS232-2R), available either separately, or as a set.
The Hall Research 2 input switch/extender is a powerful, yet simple 2x1 VGA
and RS-232 switch. It allows one or two users to select between 2 PC’s, and
access the selected PC’s Serial RS-232 port and VGA video. A typical
installation would be connecting a touch-screen LCD to the unit and then be
able to switch the touch-screen LCD between 2 PC’s.
