Question

Answer

1

How do I know
what input is
connected to
what output?

This information must be
maintained by the control
system. The present
version of the software
does not track that
information.

2

My modules do
not
communicate
with each
other?

When you experience lack
of communication check
the following:
1. Cable connections.
2. Unit ID settings.
3. Same Baud rate
settings.

3

Can I control
multiple
switchers with
one RS-232
card?

Yes. You can control up to
14 different groups of
switchers. Just connect the
Loop out port to the next
switcher’s Loop in port
using provided cables.

4

Does the

HOMERUN

come with the
rack mounts?

Yes, two 1-U high rack
mounts are included with
each module. Please
check the packaging
carefully.

5

How does one
increase the
number of
inputs or
number of
outputs on the
switcher?

To increase the number of
inputs one can add second
switcher and loop some of
the outputs (say 8) of the
first switcher to the 8
inputs of the second
switcher, thus creating a
24x8 Matrix Switcher. To
increase the number of
outputs use a second
switcher and a 

VA6834FC

interface with dual output,
or 1 in 2 out DA at each of
the inputs. This will
increase the matrix size to
16x32. For other
configurations call Altinex.

6

Can I switch
each module
independently?

Yes. Using proper RS-232
commands, one can
control each level of
switching independently by
assigning a unique ID
number

7

If I need to use
a switcher to
switch
RGBHV,
Composite
Video, S-Video
and/or Audio

Yes, the 

HOMERUN

Switcher can switch
RGBHV, Composite Video,
S-Video and/or Audio at
the same time.
