About the Audio and Video Switchers

The Extron SW family of audio/video switchers are 6-input, 2-output composite video, S-video, and/or stereo audio switchers. The AS and Auto versions are functionally identical, but also include an auto-sync detect mode. Auto-sync detect mode, when enabled, automatically selects the highest numbered input with a video signal available. The following table identifies the models and their video, audio, and auto-sync

Features

S-video models

Inputs — S-video switchers accept up to six S-video inputs on 4-pin mini DIN connectors.

Outputs — S-video switchers output two identical S-video signals on 4-pin mini DIN connectors.

Composite video models

Inputs — Composite video switchers accept up to six composite

The switchers are compatible with NTSC, PAL, and SECAM video. If external sync is connected, video switching occurs during the vertical interval, providing glitch-free switching.

The switchers allow the user to switch between devices, such as a DSS receiver, a VHS or S-VHS VCR, a DVD player, or a camcorder and output the image to one or two video recorders or displays such as a data monitor or large screen projector (figure 1-1).

The ½-rack width switcher can be mounted to a standard Extron rack panel (part # 60-190-01). Each model has an internal 100VAC to 240VAC, 50/60 Hz, 10 watts, auto-switchable power supply that provides worldwide power compatibility.

video inputs on BNC female connectors.

Outputs — Composite video switchers output two identical composite video signals on BNC female connectors.

Audio models

Inputs — Audio switchers accept up to six stereo audio inputs, balanced or unbalanced, on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw terminals.

Outputs — Audio switchers output two identical stereo audio outputs, balanced or unbalanced, on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw terminals.

Audio input gain and attenuation — Users can set the level of audio gain or attenuation (-15dB to +9dB) for each input via the RS-232 link or from the front panel. Individual input audio levels can be adjusted so there are no noticeable volume differences between sources.
