3. Connect the Power Supply to the Video Switch: 

 
The Video Switch is powered by an external wall plug-in supply the VIP-210 (+5Vdc 2A reg. 110 – 240 Vac 50 – 60 Hz). 
First plug the power output plug of this external supply into the mating jack on the backpanel of the Video Switch marked 
“+5VDC IN”, and only then plug the supply into a suitable AC power source. Since the Video Switch has no separate power 
on/off switch, it is recommended that the power supply be connected to an AC power source that has a power on/off switch. 
 

OPERATION 
 
1. Power Up Sequence: 

The switch derives its power from an external power supply provided with the MegaTouch. When the Video Switch is 
powered up, observe on the Video Switch that the front panel Led marked “PWR ON” comes on.

located on the front panel of the MegaTouch. The MegaTouch will switch from on PC to the other. If PC #1 is 
selected the MONITOR STATUS 1 SEL indicator will be on. If PC #2 is selected then the MONITOR STATUS 2 
SEL for that PC will be on. 

2) Direct Entry (available on DE models only): 

To select another PC, press the MONITOR SELECTION 

pushbutton for the appropriate PC desired. 

b)  Remote Control (available on all models): 

The MegaTouch may also be switched via remote control. A Hex 31

“REMOTE CONTROL” will switch the MegaTouch from PC1 thru PC8. The data format is one start bit, eight data 
bits, least significant bit first, one stop bit and no parity. The baud rate is 9600. Pin 5 is ground.
