7.3 Assembling a System of Interconnected Switchers

A major advantage of the VS-162AVM is that it belongs to the series of

16x16 matrix switchers and, as such, can interconnect with other switchers

in the series. This series includes, but is not limited to, the VS-1616A (a

16x16 analog balanced stereo audio matrix switcher), and VS-162V (a

16x16 video matrix switcher).
The block diagram in

Figure 7

illustrates how to assemble an interconnected

varied-format 16x16 series switcher that consists of a 16x16 Audio-Video

Router with Preview Monitor (MACHINE # 1), a 16x16 digital video

matrix switcher (MACHINE # 2), and a 16x16 digital audio matrix switcher

(MACHINE # 3). Each switcher has a unique MACHINE #. Control of the

system is via the MACHINE #.
