Installation
Installation of the VS0801 is simply a matter of plugging in the
appropriate cables.
To install the switch, refer to the installation diagram on page 12
as you perform the following three steps:
1. Use a VGA cable to connect the VGA input port on the video
display device to the VGA output ports on the rear of the
VS0801. Connect your speakers to the Audio output port.
2. Use VGA/Audio cables to connect the VGA/Audio output
ports on the source device(s) to the VGA/Audio input ports on
the VS0801. Eight VGA/Audio input ports are located on the
rear of the switch.
3. Plug the provided power adapter into an appropriate AC
power source; plug the power adapter cable into the Power
Jack on the VS0801.
This completes the basic installation of the VS0801 8-port Video
Switch. You may now power on the display and source devices.
Installing the RS-232 Controller
In order to use the RS-232 serial interface to attach a high-end
controller (such as a PC) to the VS0801, use a serial cable such
as a modem cable. The end connecting to the VS0801 should
have a 9-pin male connector. Connect this to the serial interface
on the rear of the VS0801. Refer to number 4 on the diagram on
page 12.
Note: To configure the controller serial port, see page 14.
1. Make sure that the power to all devices you will be
installing has been turned off.
2. Make sure that all devices you will be installing are
properly grounded.
