ABOUT YOUR SWITCHER 2

MX2106AV

2-In, 2-Out VGA+3.5mm AUDIO

Auto-Switcher

The MX2106AV is a 2-In, 2-Out VGA + 3.5mm

AUDIO Auto-Switcher. The MX2106AV

automatically switches on signal detection, but may

also be controlled manually if desired. The

MX2106AV is designed to switch VGA signals and

stereo audio.

The unit is encased in a solid metal enclosure and

ships with an external, 9V 500mA, power adapter.

Override switching is made through the INPUT

SELECT/RS-232 input. Manual override switching

is made via a contact closure on the INPUT

SELECT jack. This switch may be used for manual

control, or the contact closure may be controlled

from a control system. RS-232 control is

accomplished by sending ASCII commands to

select either Input 1 or Input 2.

APPLICATION DIAGRAM 5

DIAGRAM 1: TYPICAL CONFIGURATION

In addition to automatic switching, the MX2106AV may be controlled manually with an external switch, or using

ASCII commands over the RS-232 bus.

If a remote switch is connected to the INPUT SELECT jack, INPUT 1 will be selected when the contact is open.

INPUT 2 will be selected if the channel select contact is closed. If the RS-232 cable is connected, the user may

send the command [ON1] to select input 1 or [ON2] to select input 2.

Auto-switching is disabled with either manual or RS-232 control. The switching will be identical whether there

are one or two active signals. The indicator lights located next to the input ports indicate which input is selected.

INSTALLING YOUR SWITCHER 6

Step 1. Make sure that the correct power adapter

is used. The Altinex power adapter is

supplied with the unit. Connect the power

adapter to the power port. The INPUT 2

indicator light should be ON and GREEN.

NOTE: INPUT 2 is the default if there is

no signal on INPUT 1.

Step 2. Connect the VGA source or sources to

the MX2106AV inputs. If there is a

properly formatted input signal on Input 1,

the switcher will switch Input 1 to the

outputs automatically.

Step 3. Connect a cable from one or both of the

output ports on the MX2106AV to display

devices.

Step 4. If a remote switch or RS-232 control is to

be used, connect the control cable to the

INPUT SELECT/RS-232 port. See

Section7 for specific control functions.

NOTE: See Figure 1below for cabling

information. The INPUT SELECT/RS-232

port receives a 3.5mm Stereo Plug.

Step 5. Verify that the picture quality on the

display is good. If a signal is not being

received, make sure that the display is

compatible with the resolution of the

computer graphics card.

OPERATION 7

There are no settings to adjust on the MX2106AV

Auto-Switcher. The MX2106AV will operate

successfully as long as cables are attached

properly and other specifications are followed.

AUTO-SWITCH MODE

The MX2106AV automatically selects INPUT 2 if no

active signals present. If a signal is on INPUT 2 and

not on INPUT 1, the MX2106AV will maintain

INPUT 2. However, when an active signal is

applied to INPUT 1, the MX2106AV will switch to

INPUT 1. If active signals are on both inputs, the

MX2106AV will automatically switch to INPUT 1.

MANUAL SWITCH MODE

Manual override is accomplished via a contact

closure on the INPUT SELECT/RS-232 jack.

Manual Switch Mode disables Auto-Switching.

This switch may be used for manual control, or the

contact closure may be made from a control

system.

INPUT 1 will be selected when the remote control

switch is connected to the INPUT SELECT jack and

the contact is open. INPUT 2 will be selected if the

contact is closed.

RS-232 SWITCH MODE

The MX2106AV may be switched using simple

ASCII commands through standard RS-232

communication. Connect the RS-232 cable to the

INPUT SELECT/RS-232 jack. In RS-232 Control

Mode, Auto-Switching is disabled. Send the

following commands over the RS-232 bus to select

the desired input.

[ON1] = Select INPUT 1

[ON2] = Select INPUT 2

NOTE: The "[" and "]" brackets are part of the

command and must be included.

CABLE/ACCESSORIES

Cable accessories for RS-232 Control and Remote

switching are available from Altinex.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE 8

We have carefully tested and have found no

problems in the supplied MX2106AV unit. However,

we would like to offer the following suggestions:

8.1 LEDs ARE OFF

Cause 1: The power adapter is installed

wrong.

Solution 1: Make sure the adapter output is

connected to the POWER input jack

on the unit. If one of the LEDs is still

not on, see Solution 2.

Solution 2: Ensure the adapter is plugged into

an AC outlet that has power. If the

adapter has AC power and the LEDs

are still off, see Cause 2.

Cause 2: The wrong power adapter is

installed.

Solution 1: Please use the Altinex supplied

external adapter (9V, 500mA). If one

of the LEDs is still not on, please call

ALTINEX at (714) 990-2300.

8.2 UNIT DOES NOT AUTO-SWITCH

Cause 1: The manual override switch is

installed.

Solution: Remove the connection to the

INPUT SELECT jack on the unit. If a

plug is installed in the jack, even

without a switch, the unit will not

auto-switch properly. If the unit does

not auto-switch with the plug

removed, see Cause 2.

Cause 2: The signal is not active or is

improperly formatted.

Solution 1: Remove the input signals from the

switcher. If the IN 2 LED is OFF, call

ALTINEX at (714) 990-2300. If the

IN 2 LED is ON, see Solution 2.

Solution 2: Connect a properly formatted VGA

type signal from to INPUT 1. If the

switcher does not switch to INPUT

1, see Solution 3.

Solution 3: Bypass the switcher and connect the

output of the source directly to the

display. If the display is good, then

call ALTINEX at (714) 990-2300.

8.3 NO DISPLAY

Cause 1: The source has a problem.

Solution: Check the source and make sure

that there is a signal present and all

source connections are correct. If

the source is working and there is

still no display, see Cause 2.

Cause 2: Manual override is ON.

Solution: Make sure there is nothing

connected to the INPUT SELECT

port on the switcher. If there is

nothing connected, see Cause 3.

Cause 3: Signal is bad or missing.

Solution 1: Make sure the switcher output is

connected to the monitor. If there is

still no display, see Solution 2.

Solution 2: Remove both inputs to the switcher

and connect the active signal form

the source to INPUT 2. If there is still

no display, see Solution 3.

Solution 3: Bypass the switcher and connect the

output of the source directly to the

monitor. If the display is good, then

call ALTINEX at (714) 990-2300. If

there is still no display, see Cause 4.

Cause 4: Cable connections are incorrect.

Solution: Make sure the cables are properly

connected. Also, make sure that the

continuity and wiring are good. If

there is still no display present, see

Cause 5.

Cause 5: The display has a problem.

Solution: Make sure the display has power

and is turned ON. If there is still no

display, please call Altinex at

(714) 990-2300.
