3 Overview
The VP-81xl, VP-161xl, and VP-321xl route any input to the output, using
15-pin HD female connectors for the VGA/XGA signals, and detachable
terminal block connectors for the balanced stereo audio.
In particular, the
VP-81xl, VP-161xl, and VP-321xl include:
Very high video bandwidth, ensuring transparent VGA/XGA performance
Audio-follow-video (AFV) in which all operations relate to both the video
and the audio channels, or audio breakaway option, in which video and
audio channels switch independently
An ability to cascade up to seven units to increase the number of inputs
High standard directly coupled inputs and outputs
Compatibility with the Kramer
VPM-2 XGA Line Driver wall plate
Control from the front panel, or via RS-232/RS-485 serial commands
transmitted by a touch screen system, PC, or other serial control device, as
well as via an infra-red remote controller, or via remote contact-closure
switches
To achieve the best performance:
Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,
deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise
levels (often associated with low quality cables)
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may
adversely influence signal quality and position your
VP-81xl/VP-161xl/VP-321xl away from moisture, excessive sunlight and
dust
