VS-1616D-MD - Connecting the VS-1616D-MD
Warning:
To avoid risk of electric shock, this equipment must only
be connected to a supply mains with protective earth
To install the VS-1616D-MD as illustrated in the example in
Figure 4
:
1. Connect up to 16 DVI video sources (for example, computer graphics
sources).
In this example only two inputs and two outputs are connected.
2. Connect up to 16 DVI video acceptors, (for example, a plasma display and a
DVI LCD display).
3. If required, connect a PC or remote controller to the RS-232 port (see
Section
6.2
) and/or the Ethernet port (see
Section
6.5
).
4. Connect the power cord.
We recommend that you use only the power cord that is supplied with the device (not
shown in
Figure 4
).
5. If necessary, review and set the system configuration using the Menu (see
Section
8
).
Note:
Given an input signal that is HDCP encoded, the
VS-1616D-MD
outputs a
signal only if the output port supports HDCP, (for example, HDMI input and DVI
with HDCP output).

Card Limitations
6.1.1
HDBT Input Cards
The chassis is limited to a maximum of three HDBT input cards due to thermal
constraints. When installing these input cards they must occupy input slots IN 5~8,
IN 9~12, and IN 13~16 (in that order, as needed). Input slot IN 1~4 must be left
unpopulated and sealed with a blank cover. Contact Kramer Electronics for more
information on installing a fourth HDBT input card.
There is no limit to the number or type of output cards that can be installed.
