Quick Start — MSG0804 and MSG0808

Installation

Step 1

Turn off power to the switcher and all other

devices that will be connected.

Step 2

To rack mount the switcher, install the included

brackets, then mount the switcher. Otherwise,

install the four rubber feet (included) and place

the switcher on a desktop.

Step 3

Using video inputs 1 through 8, attach RGBHV,

RGBS, RGsB, RsGsBs, or component video to the

switcher using BNC connectors (see illustration

at right).

Step 4

Using audio inputs 1 through 8, attach audio

inputs to the switcher with 5-pole captive screw

connectors (see illustration below right).

Step 5

Connect up to four (MSG0804), or eight

(MSG0808), RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, RsGsBs, or

component video output devices to the switcher

using the Video BNC connections (see illustration

below right).

Step 6

Connect up to four (MSG0804), or eight

(MSG0808) audio output devices to the switcher

using 5-pole captive screw connectors (see

illustration below right).

Step 7

If the switcher is to be connected to a computer

or host controller for remote control, connect the

host’s RS-232 cable to a 5-pole captive

screw connector and connect it to the

serial port on the switcher. Configure

the serial port for the type of control

you will be using (RS-232, RS-422, or

RS-485) by setting the dip switch

adjacent to the port. (See the serial port pinout

table on page 2-4).
