i	Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your
i	VP-1608. After connecting your VP-1608, connect its power and then
	switch on the power to each device.

To connect a single VP-160816x8 RGBHV/Balanced Audio Matrix as illustrated in Figure 4, do the following:

To connect up to 8 VP-1608units to a PC or other RS-232/RS-485 controller (see Section 6).

1.Connect up to 16 RGBHV sources (such as RGBHV graphics sources) to

the RGBHV INPUT BNC connectors.

Not all sources or acceptors need to be connected.

2.Connect up to 8 RGBHV acceptors (such as RGBHV projectors) to the RGBHV OUTPUT BNC connectors.

3.Connect up to 16 stereo audio sources to the AUDIO INPUT terminal block connectors (see Section 5.1).

4.Connect up to 8 stereo audio acceptors to the AUDIO OUTPUT terminal block connectors (see Section 5.1).

5.Set the MACHINE # DIP-switches to MACHINE # 1, according to Figure 9, that is, set all switches OFF (see Section 5.3).

6.Set the DELAY DIP-switches, if required (see Section 5.5).

7.Connect a PC or other controller, if required, via the RS-232 (see Section 5.2) or RS-485 ports (see Section 5.3).

8.Connect the power cord.
