Matrix Switching, base 4x2 operation

With all of the video and audio sources connected to the four Input Ports, and the displays and 

audio systems connected to the two Output Ports of the KD-MSW4x2Pro unit, the matrix switcher 

is ready to operate.  The routing of video and audio signals from the available inputs to either output 

is easily implemented using the front panel pushbuttons, and visually verifiable via the LED indicator 

arrays.
The front panel of the unit provides the user with a visual representation of the two outputs.  

Each of the two output sections consists of a large pushbutton switch and an array of four LED 

indicators.  Each of these appropriately numbered LED indicators corresponds to one of the four 

available inputs. 
For either display that is connected to the output of the KD-MSW4x2Pro unit, the desired source 

input is switched by depressing the appropriate pushbutton until the LED indicator corresponding 

to the chosen input is lit.  The video and audio sources connected to that input are automatically 

switched to the selected output.  The unit also acts as a distribution amplifier, simultaneously 

routing a single input to both outputs, by simply repeating the same procedure for both outputs.  

Summary:  Control and Monitoring

Select one of four input sources for each of the two outputs

Front-panel LEDs indicate the selected input, for each output

Control via:

Front panel pushbuttons
IR remote control

Control all the features of the unit using the remote control 
Power the KD-MSW4x2Pro On and Off
Requires a clear line-of-site between the IR remote control unit  

and the front-panel IR sensor

IR Extender
Wired IR
All control systems (with RS-232)

Fat Boy Expansion Control

Fat Boy expansions have multiple KD-MSW4x2Pro units pre-wired from the factory.  Each unit in 

the expansion is individually addressable.  
Configuring a particular unit with the desired input and output combination requires the following 

successive steps:

Addressing desired unit:  

 

Depress button 1 through 8 to select the desired unit

Addressing desired output: 

  

Depress button ‘output 1’ (to select Output 1), or ‘output 2’ (to select Output 2) 

Addressing desired Input:  

 

Depress numerical digits 1 to 4

Additional Product Features

Fade-to-Black

 

The Fade-to-Black feature allows for switching between input/output combinations without the 

usual visual signal noise, glitches, and sync roll that traditionally accompany switching between 

video signals.  The feature momentarily forces the video image to black as the desired source 

input is selected for the chosen output.  This feature is applied automatically and the fade time 

interval is programmable via RS-232 [see the RS-232 Command List].

Video Mute

 

Video Mute enables the user to mute the video signal (the display goes to black) at the chosen 

output.  Activated via IR remote control or RS-232 [see the IR remote control section of this 

manual, and the RS-232 Command List for explicit instructions].

Volume Control

 

An analog audio volume control feature for the left and right analog stereo audio is provided 

for the YPbPr mode (RGBHV video mode does not support analog audio due to connector 

limitations). An Audio Muting function is also provided.

Distribution Amplifier

 

It is also possible under RS-232 control to allow any one of the four inputs to be switched and 

distributed to both outputs.

Power on/off

 

Turn the KD-MSW4x2Pro On and Off.  In the power-off mode, all front LEDs are Off and the 

video outputs are muted.
