INTRODUCTION
The SAS-1 is an automatic A-B switching system designed to replace manually operated A-B
switches. It automatically switches from A to B when a signal is present at its B input. The unit’s
three switching sections can switch three different kinds of signals: Line-level audio, composite
video and speaker level audio. The SAS-1 switches each of these sections at the same time,
allowing simultaneous control of these signals if needed. Five-way speaker wire binding posts
are provided for the speaker level switching and RCA-type phono jacks are provided for the
line-level audio/video switching.
