QS-1ISS 408 Integration Seamless Switcher • Quick Start
Quick Start — ISS 408Integration Seamless Switcher

Installation

Step 1

Turn off power to the ISS 408 and the input and
output devices, and remove the power cords from
them.

Step 2

If desired, install an optional DVI output card into
the switcher. See chapter 7, “Maintenance and
Modifications”.

Step 3

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

Step 4

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

Step 5

Cable the switcher for
stereo 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 6

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

Step 7

If the optional DVI output
card is installed, connect a DVI video
display to the Program output DVI
connector.

Step 8

Cable the switcher for stereo 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.
