This guide provides quick start instructions for an experienced installer to set up and operate the SW RGBHV and SW RGBHV A

switchers.

Installation

Step 1 — Mounting

Turn off or disconnect all equipment power sources and mount the switcher as required.

Step 2 — Inputs

•Connect up to 2, 4 or 6 RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, or RsGsBs video or component video inputs to the Input connectors.

•Audio models — Connect up to 2, 4 or 6 stereo or mono audio inputs

Step 5 — Power

Plug a standard IEC power cord between the switcher’s power connector and a 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz power source.

Operation

Switch mode	AUTO
Set the rear panel switch to Auto for autoswitch mode (the switcher automatically
switches to the highest-numbered input with a sync signal present) or Normal for
manual switch mode. The front panel Auto Switch Active LED lights when the	MANUAL
switcher is in autoswitch mode.

Switch inputs in normal switch mode

Press and release the desired input button.

Adjust audio level (audio models)

You can set the input level of audio gain or attenuation via the front panel or the Remote port to be compatible with a wide range of line level sources. Individual input audio levels can be adjusted so that there is no noticeable volume difference among sources. This function also eliminates the need for separate preamps or attenuators, when used with professional (higher

line level) and consumer (lower line level) audio equipment.

Adjust the audio from the front panel as follows:Press 1 and release.

Step 3 — Outputs

•Connect an RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, or RsGsBs video or component video display or other device to the Output connectors. Make connections as shown for step 3.

•Audio models —Connect a balanced or unbalanced stereo audio or mono audio device to the 5-pin captive screw connector.

NThe input LEDs display the approximate level of attenuation. The +dB LED indicates the level is gain (positive).

The - dB LED indicates the level is attenuation (negative).
