7 Operating the VS-88HD

You can operate your

VS-88HD via the front panel buttons, and/or

RS-232/RS-485 serial commands transmitted by a PC, touch screen system,

or other serial controller.

7.1 Switching OUT-IN Combinations

To switch an input to an output via the front panel buttons, in the AT ONCE

mode (see section 7.2), do the following:

1. Press an OUT SELECT button

or the ALL button.

The input under the selected output on the 7-segment display blinks.

2. Press an IN SELECT button

or the OFF button

The selected input switches to the selected output.

The digits displayed in the 7-segment display change appropriately.

7.2 Confirming Settings

Choose to work in the AT ONCE or the CONFIRM mode. When the

VS-88HD operates in the AT ONCE mode, pressing an OUT-IN combination

implements the switch immediately. In the CONFIRM mode, the TAKE

button must be pressed to authorize the switch.
In the AT ONCE mode, you save time as execution is immediate and actions

require no user confirmation. However, no protection is offered against

changing an action in error.
In the CONFIRM mode:

You can key-in several actions and then confirm them by pressing the

“TAKE” button, to simultaneously activate the multiple switches

Every action requires user confirmation, protecting against erroneous

switching

Execution is delayed until the user confirms the action
