Model 8/10 PLUS Operation and Configuration
Output Select DIP Switch Setting
As mentioned earlier, the Output Select DIP switches must be
set to define the video format of each input. The DIP Switch
modules, labeled S-VIDEO/SVHS and NTSC/PAL are shown
in the drawing at the bottom of this page. Each module has 10
(8 if Model 8 PLUS) switches which are numbered to match
the input numbers. RGBS and VIDEO labels under the switch
modules identify the left and right switch positions. When
setting the Output Select Switch Module switches, use the
following rules as a guide:
• All RGB inputs must have the corresponding switch positions
on both switch modules set to RGBS. If all switcher inputs are
RGB format, all of the Output Select DIP switches must be set
to the RGBS position.
• All S-Video inputs must have the corresponding switch
positions on the S-VIDEO/SVHS module set to VIDEO. The
corresponding NTSC/PAL switches must be in the RGBS
position.
• All NTSC/PAL inputs must have the corresponding switch
positions on the NTSC/PAL switch module set to VIDEO. The
corresponding S-Video switches must be in the RGBS position.
The DIP switch modules used in the Model 8/10
PLUS switchers are the "rocker" type (see end
view drawing to the left). The major difference
between the rocker type and the "slide" type
(which could also be used) is the action
required to change the position of the switch.
To change the position of the rocker
type switch, press down on the
desired end (RGBS or VIDEO) with
a pointed object. To change the
position of the slide switch, a small
screwdriver is used to push (slide)
the switch to the desired position
(RGBS or VIDEO).
