Identif ying t he Board Version andSetting the SW VGA/Ars Jumpers

If you plan to use the switcher with VSW I AAP remotecontrols, you must configure the switcher. It is moreconvenient to do this before installing it in a rack or

furniture and making connections.

Using the SW VGA/Ars switcher with VSW I AAP controlpanels requires you to set internal jumpers in the switcher.When you open the switcher, you can also check the circuit

board installed in the switcher to ensure that it is compatiblewith the VSW I AAP control panels.

On the VSW I A AP remot e control, ensure thatjumper J6 is installed. Refer to the VSW I AAP manualfor details.

1. If applicable, disconnect all power to the switcher and anyattached devices.

2. Remove the eight screws from the switcher (three on eachside of the switcher and two on top) (figure 2-8). Removethe two connector nuts from the Remote connector ( 6 onfigure 2-3 and figure 2-4) and each VGA connector ( 2 and4 on figure 2-3 and figure 2-4) on the rear panel of the

switcher. Lift the top cover off of the switcher.

Configuring t he sw itcher

There are six jumpers on the circuit board, numbered JMP5,JMP7, JMP9, JMP11, JMP 13, and JMP15, that control connectionwith one or more VSW I AAP control panels (figure 2-9 and

figure 2-10).

OPEN CLOSED

All jumpers are set open (removed) by default.The jumpers in the table below must be set closed(installed) when a VSW I AAP is connected to theassociated input.

Close the indicated jumpers in the table belowto adjust the appropriate settings.

These jumpers enable/disable VGA connector pin 5 (control) foreach input. Close (install) the jumper for a specific VGA input

to allow the VSW I AAPs show me signal to select that input.

When an input is not connected via a VSW I AAP, thatinputs jumper should be in the default (open) position.

Each jumper, when closed (installed) allows the switcher toreceive the show me signal from the VSW I AAP on thatinputs VGA connector. When a jumper is open (removed) thatinput cannot receive the signal.

Auto switch mode must be disabled when using the

switcher with one or more VSW I AAP remote controls.If the auto switch mode is enabled, the input cannot beselected using the show me function.

Selecting auto switch mode

Press and hold the Input 1/Mode button while you press andrelease the Input 3/Auto button. The Auto Switch Active LEDturns on, indicating auto switch mode. Release theInput 1/Mode button.

Auto switch mode must be disabled when using theswitcher with one or more VSW I AAP remote controls.If the auto switch mode is enabled, the input cannot beselected using the show me function.

Locking the f ront panel (Executive mode)

To toggle the front panel lock on and off, press and hold theInput 2/Normal button and the Input 3/Auto button forapproximately 3 seconds. All front panel LEDs flash three timesto indicate the mode change.

All input LEDs blink once if you attempt a front paneloperation while the panel is locked.

Selecting an input in normal switch mode

To select an input using the front panel buttons, press andrelease the button for the desired input (must be in normalswitch mode). The LED for the selected input lights.

An input can also be selected by an RS-232 device or a remotecontrol device (see chapter 4, Remote Control).
