Controlling the Switcher
9
When two switchers are to be interconnected to provide a 6 input, 2
output (6x2) configuration by looping Input #1 of switcher #1 to Input #1
of switcher #2, etc., J35 must be located in its alternate position in all of
the switchers. This is also the case for configurations 6x3, 6x4, and so on,
using 3, 4, or more switchers
When two switchers are to be interconnected to provide a 12 input, 1
output (12x1) configuration, J35 must be located in its factory set
position in all of the switchers. This is also the case for configurations
18x1, 24x1, and so on, using 3, 4, or more switchers
Jumper J20 is used to define the Sync video source for all the switcher
inputs, so that Vertical Interval Switching can be assured. The jumpers
are factory located for an External Sync source. If the sync of the video
source on Input #1 is preferred, then J20 must be relocated to its alternate
position in any one of the switchers
When switchers are to be interconnected, the switcher that contains the
active video sync source must be identified by all the switchers to ensure
Vertical Interval Switching throughout the system. J34 is the jumper to
be used for this task
7 Controlling the Switcher
The
OMX-SW6x1B
can be controlled via:
The front panel buttons
Direct remote contact closure via a remote socket on the back panel (see
Figure 3)
A PC or other remote control via the switcher's RS-232 or RS-485/422
connector
