6.2 Assembling a Multi-channel Video Switcher

You can configure several

VS-3232Vxl units as 32x32 multi-channel video

switchers for:

s-Video (Y/C) by combining two

VS-3232Vxl units (see section 6.2.1)

YUV (RGB) by combining three

VS-3232Vxl units (see section 6.2.2)

RGBS by combining four

VS-3232Vxl units (see section 6.2.3)

In a multi-channel video switcher configuration, only one unit can be the

Master (with DIP 6 OFF). The other units must be Slaves (with DIP 6 ON).
The front panel of each Slave unit is always locked and its LCD display does

not illuminate, although it displays the current cross-point status of those

switchers. The Slave units always follow the Master. The Master unit operates

in the regular way

, leading the Slaves in the background.

To activate a multi-channel video switcher so that each unit is in the same

state from the outset, first turn ON the master unit and only after it completes

the initial setup, turn ON the slave units one by one.
