Worksheet example 1: System equipment

Figure 3-6 shows a worksheet for a switcher configured as a 48-input by 32-output matrix in a fictional organization with the system hardware annotated. Inputs 10 and 11 have no connections in this organization, so they have been crossed out on the worksheet. Inputs 49 through 64 do not exist on this model, so they are crossed out. Similarly, outputs 7, 14, 15, 16, and 33 through 64 are crossed out on the worksheet.

Inputs include PCs, an audio CD player, cameras, and an Extron VTG 400D. Output devices include monitors, front and rear projectors, a stereo, and a VCR for recording presentations.

The VTG 400D video test generator connected to input 12 enables a video test pattern to be sent to one, several, or all output devices for problem isolation or adjustment purposes. An audio test tape or CD could be used in a similar manner to check the audio components.
