3Overview

The Kramer TOOLS VP-200NAKis a 1:2 distribution amplifier for XGA and higher or lower resolution signals, as well as unbalanced stereo audio signals and/or balanced stereo audio signals, with a unique new feature. It includes the Kramer innovative integrated sync processing; KR - ISP™ technology, which lets you achieve a sharp, stable image when the sync level is too low, by restoring the sync signal waveform.

The VP-200NAK1:2 XGA / Audio DA:

Accepts one XGA input, provides correct buffering and isolation, and then distributes the signal to two identical outputs on high-density 15 pin HD connectors

Accepts an unbalanced stereo audio input, and simultaneously outputs two unbalanced stereo audio outputs on mini plug connectors, and two balanced stereo audio outputs on terminal block connectors

With its video bandwidth exceeding 400MHz, ensures transparent operation at high-resolution graphics modes such as UXGA (1600x1200)

Accepts analog or digital syncs1 and provides ID Bit control2 as well as separate controls for audio output level and XGA equalization

Is 12VDC fed

Achieving the best performance means:

Connecting only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables)

Avoiding interference from neighboring electrical appliances and positioning your VP-200NAKaway from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.

Warning – Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall adapter that is provided with this unit3.

Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall before installing or removing device or servicing unit.

1 Via a pair of underside switches. Note that both the Hs (horizontal sync) switch and the Vs (vertical sync) switch MUST be set identically

2 Via an underside switch. Sometimes notebook computers refuse to output a VGA signal to an external VGA monitor. By setting the ID BIT to ON, the notebook will output to an external VGA monitor
