5.1  Connecting a Single VM-100CB Unit 

To connect a single 

VM-100CB

 unit (

1:10 Video Component Distributor

), do 

the following

1

1.  Connect a component video source (for example, an HDTV satellite 

receiver) to the BNC INPUT connectors. 

2.  Connect the 10 component video output connectors

2

 to up to 10 

component video acceptors. 

3.  Leave the LOOP BNC connectors unconnected, and set all three 

underside TERMINATION switches: B-Y, R-Y, and Y to 75  (for 

termination: slide to the left). 

Note: if a loop connection is required, for example, to a local monitor, 

plug it into the LOOP BNC INPUT connectors and set all three underside 

TERMINATION switches: B-Y, R-Y, and Y to HI-Z (for looping: slide 

to the right). 

4.  Connect the power cord

1 Switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your VM-100CB. After connecting your VM-100CB, switch 
on its power and then switch on the power on each device 
2  If  less  than  10  outputs  are  needed,  connect  only  those  outputs  of  the  VM-100CB  that  are  required,  and  leave  the  other 
outputs unconnected 
3 We recommend that you use only the power cord that is supplied with this machine
