GENERAL DESCRIPTION

 

 
The AVS-1210 10 x 1 analogue video switcher is a self-contained, mains powered unit occupying one unit of rack 
mounting space. It has the capability to switch any one of its ten loop-through inputs to its output. The output has 
two isolated feeds. Selection of the required input is made via a "D" type connector mounted on the rear panel, 
using a 4 or 5 bit code. 
 
The switcher can be fitted with a CPS-1210 10 x 1 or a CPS-1220 dual 10 x 1 (20 x 1) Control Panel. 
 
The switcher can be remotely controlled by using CPS-1050 10 x 1 or CPS-1052 20 x 1 remote control panels. 
 
The  AVS-1210  is  provided  with  an  eleventh  (cascade)  input  to  facilitate  two  AVS-1210  switchers  to  be  linked 
providing 20 x 1 operation using either a CPS-1220 locally or CPS-1052 remotely. 
 
The input circuits of this series of switcher are designed for loop through operation to allow several switchers to be 
stacked with common inputs, without the need for additional distribution amplifiers. 
 
The switcher is housed in an IRT one rack unit (44 mm high) 483 mm (19 inch) rack mounting metal chassis. The 
input  and  output  circuit  connections  are  by  means  of  BNC  sockets  mounted  on  the  edge  of  the  printed  circuit 
board, accessible from the rear panel of the unit. 
 
Control/tally connections to the switch data buss are made to a pair of 25 pin "D" connectors mounted on the rear 
panel. The control system is compatible with that used for control of IRT’s AAS-1220 10 x 1 stereo audio switcher 
and with 3000 series Eurocard modules. 
 
An internal AC mains powered regulated power supply provides the operating voltages for the switcher circuitry. A 
selector on the rear panel allows matching to local mains supply voltages.
