If the switcher is to be mounted, see Mounting the Switcher, earlier in this chapter.

Turn off power to the switcher and all other devices that will be connected.

Using inputs 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the VGA, S-video, and Video (composite) groups, attach up to 12 video input devices to the switcher.

Connect output display devices to the switcher using VGA, S-video, or Composite Video outputs.

Connect up to 12 stereo audio sources to audio inputs 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the VGA, S-video, or Composite Video audio groups. See Audio input and output later in this chapter.

If using a computer or host controller for remote control, connect the host’s RS-232 cable to the 3.8 mm, 5-pole captive screw serial port (Serial Port A) of the switcher. For an RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 pinout table and DIP switch settings, see Remote Control Port (RS-232/RS-422/RS-485)in chapter 5.

Power up the input and output devices, then connect power to the switcher.
