Step 1. Make sure that the power input is set to the proper AC voltage in your country. An incorrect setting can result in unit damage not covered by warranty.

Step 2. Connect the power cord to the unit and plug it into the power outlet.

Step 3. Connect the cables from the video sources (computers) to the input channels and connect the output channel to the display device (i.e. monitor or projector).

Step 4. If a control system is used to control the unit, connect the RS-232 port to the control system RS-232 card. An improper connection may result in RS-232 interface damage.

Step 5. Confirm that the picture quality on all displays is good. If you are not receiving a signal, make sure that the display is compatible with the resolution of the computer graphics card. Contact Closure control requires the use of cable part # RC5204CC.
