7.2.3 Configuring a 4-Unit 16x16 RGBS Switcher
To configure four VS-162V switchers as a 16x16 RGBS video matrix
switcher, combine three VS-162V switchers for YUV (RGB) as shown in
Figure 7 .
7.3 Configuring a Multi-Unit Matrix Switcher
You can greatly expand the number of inputs and outputs using several VS-
162V units

. To do this, you must set a unique MACHINE ADDRESS #
(see section ) on each VS-162V unit. This defines which inputs and
outputs are configured to a particular unit, as the chart in Figure 8
illustrates.
For example, to connect a 48x64 switcher (48 inputs and 64 outputs), you
would configure using MACHINE ADDRESS # 1, 2, 3, 4; 7, 8, 9, 10; 13,
14, 15 and 16. You can only choose a rectangular

inputs and 96 outputs
