QS-1
Quick Start — Integration Scaling Matrix Switcher

Installation

Step 1

Turn off power to the ISM 182 or ISM 482 and the
input and output devices, and remove the power
cords from them.

Step 2

Install four rubber feet on the bottom of the ISM or
mount the ISM in a rack.

Step 3

Connect up to eight computer/RGB video,
component video, S-video, or composite video
sources to these female BNC input connectors.
The figure below shows how to connect the various
video formats.

Step 4

Cable the switcher for
audio input. Each input
has a 3.5 mm, 5-pole
captive screw connector for
balanced or unbalanced
stereo or mono audio
input. Connectors are
included with each
switcher, but you must
supply the audio cable.
High impedance is
generally over 800 ohms.

Step 5

Connect RGB video displays to
the Output 1 and Output 2
female BNC and 15-pin HD
connectors. Connect the
various video formats to the
BNCs as shown.
Both output connector
types output the same
video signal and the
same sync format.

Step 6

Cable the switcher for audio
output. Each output has a
3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw
connector that outputs the selected unamplified,
line level audio. Connect an audio device, such as
an audio amplifier or powered speakers.

Step 7

If desired, connect a control system or computer to
the Remote RS-232 port.
