ABOUT YOUR SWITCHER 2

The DA1914SX is a 2-in, 1-out RGBS Auto Switcher with manual remote capability through contact closure. Using four Female BNC connectors for each input and output, the DA1914SX has a fully buffered output.

The DA1914SX offers a Sync Source switch, enabling it to auto-switch RGBS signal formats when placed in the SYNC position, and auto-switch

RGsB and Composite Video signals when placed in the GREEN position. Composite Video signals must be passed through the Green channel when auto-switching is necessary. When two active sources are present, the DA1914SX will select the default input, which is Input 2.

The DA1914SX can be controlled manually by connecting a latching contact closure control to its 2.5mm mini-coaxial remote control jack. The DA1914SX comes with a small switch and a 6 foot cable (part# RC5203CC) that performs the manual switch function, or contact closure may be made from a control system. The contact closure acts as a “push”, switching back and forth between two active sources and switching between ON and OFF when a single active source is on Input 1. If a single active source is on Input 2 (the default), the manual control will not push to Input 1.

In auto-switch mode, the DA1914SX is perfect for applications in which a user plugs in one of two input plates at different locations. In manual mode,

the DA1914SX is great as an ON/OFF switch or for simply switching between two active computers.

The DA1914SX may be mounted to furniture or other suitable surfaces using optional hardware.
