2. Installation 

 

2.1 Required Cables 

The video input cables are generally HD15 (VGA) male to male 
(customer furnished). The Audio inputs are 3.5 mm mini-stereo 
plugs (customer furnished). If you are going to connect the unit to 
a Serial port (such as PC’s COM) you would need a straight-
through Male/Female DB9 Serial Cable (customer furnished). 

2.2 Inputs & Outputs 

The VS-4A has 4 video and audio inputs marked Video 1 through 
4 and Audio 1 through 4.  The unit has 1 video and audio output 
marked Video and Audio Output. The unit has 1 serial port 
connector labeled RS232. 

2.3 Connecting the VS-4A 

Connect your video and audio sources such as computer or 
notebook PC to any of the Video and Audio Inputs 1 through 4.  

Connect the display device such as a monitor (or a video 
projector) to the switched video and audio outputs (Video and 
Audio Output). 

Connect the included power supply to the VS-4A. 

Select the desired video source or mode of operation for your 
video and audio output using the front panel switched buttons.  If 
preferred, the selection can also be done through RS-232 serial 
commands by connecting a DB9 RS-232 Serial cable to your PC 
and the VS-4A.
