Operating the VS-211HA
The
VS-211HA
works in three modes:
Manual mode (see
Section
5.1
)
Automatic mode (see
Section
5.2
)
Override mode (see
Section
5.3
)
5.1
Using the Manual Mode
In manual mode the
VS-211HA
only switches when the remote contact closure
switches are momentarily pressed. If you switch to an inactive input source, the
output is blank.
Note
: A source is considered active only when there is an active clock signal coming from the
source.
To set manual mode:
Slide the AUTO/MANUAL DIP 1 down to MANUAL (see
Figure 1
)
Select the required port manually by pressing the switches connected to the
terminal block
5.2
Using the Automatic Mode
Automatic mode uses auto
matic signal detection to determine the device’s
behavior during switching. Automatic mode has two further modes: Priority mode
and Last connected mode.
In Automatic/Priority mode, Input 1 has the higher priority
If two sources are connected and active, Input 1 is sent to the output
If Input 1 becomes inactive, Input 2 is sent to the output
If Input 1 returns to activity, Input 1 is sent to the output
For example, a sports bar has an AV system that displays live sports action on Input 1
while commercials loop on Input 2. If the game is interrupted, commercials automatically
display until the live action returns.
