HOW DO I GET STARTED?
The fastest way to get started is to take your time and do everything right the first time.
Taking 15 minutes to read the manual may save you a few hours later. You don’t even
have to read the whole manual. At the beginning of each section, you’ll find an overview
of the section. So if the section doesn’t apply to you, you don’t have to spend your time
reading it.

Optional Accessories
The following Kramer accessories can enhance implementation of your amplifier.
SP-11 - (Video/Audio Processor) can be serially connected between the video/audio source
and the VM amplifier for video and audio control/correction. The machine provides camera
control and luminance/white balance correction. The SP-11 is also capable of performing
Composite to Y/C conversion and bi-directional transcoding. The machine allows full control
over the video signal: Video gain down to full fade, log or linear Definition control, log or
linear Contrast control, Color saturation control, Black Level control, Red, Green and Blue
controls and a Screen Splitter control for “before-after” comparison. The Input switch control
is "Audio-follow-Video".
SP-3001 - (Component Video Processor) can be serially connected to the VM amplifier in
order to achieve full control of component video. The SP -3001 has 3 looping Component
Video inputs and 9 outputs- three for each component; thus it serves as a Component DA as
well. The SP -3001 allows full control of Gain, Contrast, Definition and black level of the Y
channel and individual Gain and Black level controls of the R-Y and B-Y channels. A Screen
Splitter control for "before-after" comparison is also built in.
611T/611R - (611T full bandwidth Fiber Optic Transmitter and 611R matching Fiber Optic
Receiver) Part of the KRAMER TOOLS series, and designed for studio and other demanding
applications. These machines, in combination, may be used to send one of the distributed
channels to distances of 5-25Km. The 611T and 611R use state-of-the-art fiber optic circuitry
and allow the user (via rear panel trimmers) to adjust input and output video levels and high
frequency peaking to achieve best performance. Both machines, like all KRAMER TOOLS,
are fed from a 12V DC source, making them perfectly suitable for fieldwork as well.
