MATRIX SWITCHERS
INSTALLING YOUR SWITCHER | 6 |
Step 1. Stack together the modules that are required to form a matrix for switching the desired signals.
Allow
16x16 RGBHV + Stereo Audio System
Step 2. Connect the HOMERUN modules together using the loop control cables provided with the unit. Always connect the loop output of the first unit to the input of the next unit and so on until the input of the last unit has been connected.
Step 3. Connect power to all modules with the power cords provided. The power supply is universal and will work throughout the world with voltages between
Step 4. For video modules, connect cables from the video sources (computers, VCR, others) to inputs 1 through 16 and connect the display devices (i.e. monitors or projectors) to outputs 1 through 16. For audio modules connect cables from the audio sources to inputs
1 through 16, and the outputs to audio receivers.
CAUTION:
All video inputs to HOMERUN Video Modules are DC coupled for best performance. Even though the video inputs are fully isolated, verify with an electrician that all of the grounding is proper and that GROUND LOOP problems are minimized. Severe Ground loop type conditions can damage equipment.
MAXIMUM VIDEO/SYNC INPUT: +/- 5 VOLTS
MAXIMUM AUDIO INPUT: +/- 5 VOLTS
Step 5. If a control system is used to control the unit connect the

Step 6. Turn on the power. After a series of beeps the unit is now operational. You should observe lit LED’s on the back panel and a lit power LED on the front panel. You are ready to either program your switcher or perform switching from the rear panel.
