Turn off the input and output devices, and unplug their power cords.

If desired, mount the switcher in a rack or under furniture (see Mounting the Switcher below).

Connect the input and output devices to the switcher (see Cabling and Rear Panel Views on page 2-3).

(SW 8 and SW 12 models) If desired, connect a computer or an RS-232 control system to the RS-232 connector (see Remote connection on page 2-6).

(SW 4 and SW 6 models) If desired, connect a computer, an RS-232 control system, an IR device (such as the IR 102 remote control kit), or a contact closure device (such as a KP 6 Keypad Remote Control) to the Remote connector (see Remote connection on page 2-6).

If desired, connect a black burst (genlock) signal to the external sync connectors (see External sync connection on page 2-6).

Plug the switcher and, if appropriate, the input devices and output devices into a grounded AC source.

Turn on the input and output devices.

The image from each input device should appear on the output devices when you switch from one input device to another. If this does not happen, double check steps 3 through 5 and make adjustments as needed.

Mounting the Switcher

Tabletop use

For tabletop use, affix a self-adhesive rubber foot to each corner of the bottom of the switcher.

Rack mounting the switcher

The SW AV switcher models are housed in rack-mountable, 1U high, 17" wide metal enclosures. The appropriate rack mount kit is included with each switcher. Rack mount the switcher as follows:

1.

If feet were previously installed on the bottom of the switcher, remove them.

2.

Attach the rack mount brackets to the switcher with the eight #8 machine

 

screws provided (figure 2-1).

3.

Insert the switcher into the rack, align the holes in the mounting bracket with

 

those of the rack.

4.

Secure the switcher to the rack using the supplied machine screws.

Furniture mounting the switcher

The SW AV switcher models can be mounted under a table or other horizontal surface with an optional Extron MBD 129 Through-Desk Mount Kit, part #70-077-02.

1.

Secure the optional table/wall mounting brackets to the switcher with the

 

eight machine screws provided in the mounting kit (figure 2-1).

2.

Hold the switcher with attached brackets against the underside of the desk or

 

other furniture. Mark the location of holes for screws on the underside of the

 

desk.
