Product Overview
DESCRIPTION:
The IN31608 Presentation Switcher combines the easy operation and serial control capabilities of a projector
switcher with the flexibility of a matrix switcher. Featuring RGBHV + stereo audio matrix switching, 350 MHz
bandwidth and two switching modes, the IN31608 is ideal for permanent installations, rentals, complex staging
operations and any other display system requiring a high performance, economical presentation switcher.
Direct Switching Mode - In the Direct Mode, the IN31608 acts as a projector switcher, routing composite, S-
Video and RGB signals to the appropriate outputs. The user simply presses one of the input buttons and that
input signal is automatically routed to the pre-programmed output(s).
Matrix Switching Mode - For advanced applications requiring multiple outputs, the IN31608 can operate as a
true 16 x 8 matrix switcher. In the Matrix Mode, users press an output button followed by an input button and a
new patch is immediately executed.
Projector Control - The IN31608 can store and transmit serial ASCII or hex projector control strings to
projectors, INLINE products or other serial controlled AV equipment in RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 modes.

software provided with the switcher makes it easy to set up the unit and store control codes. All
