5.1Connecting the VP-128H Matrix Switcher

This section describes how to connect the VP-128H.

To connect your VP-128HMatrix Switcher1, connect the following2:

1.Connect up to 12 VGA/UXGA sources to the 12 HD15F input connectors. For example1, connect a computer graphics source to the INPUT 1 HD15F connector, and a laptop graphics source to the INPUT 12 HD15F connector.

2.Connect up to 8 HD15F output connectors to up to3 8 VGA/UXGA acceptors. For example1, connect the OUTPUT 1 HD15F connector to the VGA/UXGA acceptor 1, for example, a projector, and connect the OUTPUT 8 HD15F connector to the VGA/UXGA acceptor 8, for example, a display.

3.Connect the Sync reference BNC connectors (optional).

4.Connect a PC (if required) to the RS-232 port, see section 5￿ .2.

5.Connect the 10 Base T network port (if required), see section 5￿ .3.

6.Connect the power cord4.

1 As the example in Figure 6 illustrates

2 Switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your VP-128H. After connecting your VP-128H, switch on its power and then switch on the power on each device

3 When less than 8 outputs are required, connect only those outputs of the VP-128H and leave the other outputs unconnected 4 We recommend that you use only the power cord that is supplied with this machine
