Connecting Recording Devices
The multiplexer has both BNC and S-VIDEO connections for use with a recording device such
as a VCR or DVR (Digital Video Recorder). The figures below show examples of one VCR
connected to the multiplexer for use in both recording and playback, and two VCRs being used
to allow simultaneous recording and viewing of video.
Connection to a Single Recording Device
Using multiple Recording Devices
Mouse Connections
A mouse attached to the multiplexer allows the user the option of accessing setup menu options
by pointing and clicking the desired settings rather than using the front panel buttons. A
standard serial mouse (ex: Microsoft, Logitech) connects to the mini DIN connector labeled
MOUSE.
Daisy–Chaining Equipment
The multiplexer can be daisy-chained to other multiplexers or controlled by a remote keyboard.
To add another multiplexer to the system connect the RS-485 OUT connector of the additional
unit to the RS-485 IN connector on the initial multiplexer.
