IN3606 / IN3656 / IN3666 OPERATION MANUAL - REV. 1.1 11/27/99

DESCRIPTION

The IN3600 Series includes four high performance analog video switchers with four or six inputs and
one output. The IN3600 Series switchers are designed to route several high resolution source signals to
an attached desktop data monitor, presentation monitor or data projector. Users may select the desired
input channel using front panel buttons or via remote control using an optional wired remote or control
system. The IN3600 Series has six front panel buttons that may be used to select the desired input
channel. Any time the unit is powered up, Input 1 is automatically selected. All non-selected channels
are terminated to 75 Ohms. The output signal may be blanked (no input selected) by pressing the Blank
button. Returning to normal operation (or un-blanking) is accomplished by pressing the Blank button
again. Input channels may also be selected remotely by using an optional IN3590 wired remote or a
control system (see Remote Control Operation on page 4 for more details). The IN3600 Series
Switchers offer easy operation and the following features:

♦

300 MHz Bandwidth - switchers route ultra-high resolution video signals with no signal loss

♦

Design ensures compatibility with a wide range of video and audio signals

♦

Front Panel Channel Selection Controls and LED Indicators

♦

Contact Closure control port for remote selection of input channel

♦

Wide flexibility in programming for various configurations.
