prevent fire and shock hazards. Please read them

carefully and heed all warnings.

1.1 GENERAL

•Qualified ALTINEX service personnel or their

authorized representatives must perform all

service.

1.3 INSTALLATION

•For best results, place the SW1956CT on a flat,

level surface. Keep in a dry area away from dust

and moisture.

•To prevent fire or shock, do not expose this unit

to water or moisture. Do not place the

SW1956CT in direct sunlight, near heaters or

heat-radiating appliances, or near any liquid.

Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke, or steam can

harm internal components.

•Handle the SW1956CT carefully. Dropping or

jarring can damage internal components.

•Do not place heavy objects on top of the

SW1956CT. If the unit is to be mounted to a

table or wall, use only ALTINEX-made mounting

accessories.

•To turn off the main power, be sure to remove

the cord from the power outlet. The power outlet

socket should be installed as close to the

equipment as possible, and should be easily

accessible.

•Do not pull the power cord or any cable that is

attached to the SW1956CT Switcher.

•If the SW1956CT is not to be used for an

extended period, disconnect the power cord

from the outlet.

1.4 CLEANING

•Unplug the SW1956CT power cord before

cleaning. Clean surfaces with a dry cloth. Never

use strong detergents or solvents such as

alcohol or thinner. Do not use a wet cloth or

water to clean the unit.

ABOUT YOUR SW1956CT 2

SW1956CT

2-In, 1 Out Twisted Pair Auto-Switcher

The SW1956CT is a 2-In, 1-Out Twisted Pair

Auto-Switcher. The SW1956CT switches

automatically upon signal detection, but may also

be controlled manually. The SW1956CT is

designed to switch ALTINEX Twisted Pair

transmitter and receiver signals. These include

ALTINEXpart numbers DA1930CT, DA1931CT,

MT103-122,MT103-123, etc.

The unit is encased in a solid metal enclosure and

ships with an external, 9V power adapter. Also

included is an external contact-closure switch for

manual override of input selection.

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.

The SW1956CT is perfect for applications that use

wall or floor plates for auto-switching. The

SW1956CT may be mounted to furniture or other

suitable surfaces using optional hardware.

The latest generation of Twisted Pair devices uses

an innovative, patented technology* developed by

ALTINEX. The new signal processing technology

allows transmitting and receiving fully equalized

computer video signals, stereo, and audio signals

over long distances.

DIAGRAM 1: TYPICAL SETUP

DA1931CT

SW1956CT

DA1930CT

ALTINEX includes a remote control switch with the

SW1956CT.

The remote switch has a 6 ft cable and

may used to control the switcher manually.

When the remote control switch is connected to the INPUT SELECT jack, INPUT 1 will be selected if the

channel select contact is closed. INPUT 2 will be selected if the channel select contact is open.

The switching will be identical whether there are one or two active signals. The LEDs located next to the

input ports indicate which input is selected.

INSTALLING YOUR SW1956CT 6

Step 1. Connect the ALTINEX power adapter that

is supplied with the unit to the power port.

CAUTION: The POWER port and the

INPUT SELECT port use the

same connector type. Make

sure the power adapter is

connected to the POWER

port.

Step 2. The POWER LED and the INPUT 2 LED

should turn on.

Step 3. Connect the SW1956CT inputs to the

outputs of the Twisted Pair transmitters.

Step 4. Connect a cable from the output port of

the SW1956CT to the input port of the

Twisted Pair receiver.

Step 5. If the remote control switch is to be used,

connect it to the INPUT SELECT port.

CAUTION:The POWER port and the

INPUT SELECT port use the

same connector type. Make

sure the control switch is

connected to the INPUT

SELECT port.

Step 6. 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 SW1956CT

Auto-Switcher. The SW1956CT will operate

successfully as long as cables are attached

properly and other technical specifications are

followed.

AUTO-SWITCH MODE

The SW1956CT automatically selects the INPUT 2

port if there are no active signals present. If there is

an active signal on INPUT 2 and not on INPUT 1,

then the SW1956CT will maintain INPUT 2 as the

active port. However, when an active signal is

applied to INPUT 1, the SW1956CT will switch to

INPUT 1.

If there are active signals on INPUT 1 and

INPUT 2, the SW1956CT will automatically switch

to INPUT 1.

MANUAL SWITCH MODE

Manual override is accomplished via a contact

closure on the INPUT SELECT jack. Manual Switch

Mode disables auto-switching.

Included with the SW1956CT is an external manual

switch with a 6ft cable. This switch may be used

for manual control, or the contact closure may be

made from a control system. This port uses a

2.5 mm mini-coaxial remote-control jack and it is

located next to the Twisted Pair output.

INPUT 1 will be selected when the remote control

switch is connected to the INPUT SELECT jack and

the contact is closed. INPUT 2 will be selected if

the contact is open.

CAUTION: The connector used for the INPUT

SELECT port is the same type as is

used for the POWER connector. Use

caution to ensure the switch is

connected to the correct port.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE 8

We have carefully tested and have found no

problems in the supplied SW1956CT unit.

However, we would like to offer the following

suggestions:

8.1 POWER LED IS 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. Check the unit carefully.

The POWER input jack and the

INPUT SELECT jack are the same

type. If the POWER LED is still not

on, see Solution 2.

Solution 2: Make sure the adapter is plugged

into a proper AC outlet that has

power. If the adapter has AC power

and the POWER LED is still off, see

Cause 2.

Cause 2: The wrong power adapter is

installed.

Solution 1: Please use the ALTINEX supplied

external adapter (9 V, 500 mA). If

the POWER LED 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, the

SW1956CT 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 signal

from an ALTINEX Twisted Pair

transmitter 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 transmitter directly to

the input of the receiver. 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 Twisted Pair

receiver input and the receiver is on.

If there is still no display, see

Solution 2.

Solution 2: Remove both inputs to the switcher

and connect the active signal from

the Twisted Pair transmitter output

to INPUT 2. If there is still no

display, see Solution 3.
