Video input and output connections
Computer video group
N The switcher does not alter the computer video inputs in any way. The signal
output is in the same format as the input.
The switcher can connect to up to as many as eight computer video sources and
output to as many as six video devices.
a
RGB video inputs — Connect the analog computer-video
sources to the Computer Input 1 through Computer Input 8
female 15-pin HD connectors.
N Most laptop or notebook computers have an external video port, but they
require special commands to output the video to that connector. Also, a laptop’s
screen shuts off once that port is activated. See the computer’s user’s guide for
details, or visit the Extron Web site,
www.extron.com , and search for “laptop
commands”.
b
RGB video outputs — Connect RGBHV video displays to
the Computer Output 1 through Computer Output 6 female
15-pin HD connectors.
