Step 3: Install the VS-8FDxl
To rack mount the machine attach both ear brackets to the machine (by removing the three screws
from each side of the machine and replacing those screws through the ear brackets) or place the
machine on a table.
Step 4: Connect the inputs and outputs
Each
VS-8FDxl
port can be defined as an input or an output, enabling flexible configurations such as 1x7 distribution amplifiers, 7x1
routers or any other possible input-output combination. By default, the
VS-8FDxl
is set to operate as a 4x4 router: PORT 1 to PORT
4 as the inputs, and PORT 5 to PORT 8 as the outputs.
Always switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your
VS-8FDxl
. For best results, we recommend that you
always use Kramer high-performance cables to connect AV equipment to the
VS-8FDxl
.
Optionally, daisy-chain the
VS-8FDxl
by looping the genlock source to the next machine.
