We recommend that you:

•Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging

materials for possible future shipment

•Review the contents of this user manual

2.1 Quick Start

The following quick start chart summarizes the basic setup and operation steps.

Getting Started

KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY

Overview

3 Overview

The Kramer VS-1616D is a high performance matrix switcher chassis that supports

up to 16 x 16 ports1for various signals (depending on the type of cards installed).

It features a very high bandwidth2

The VS-1616D is highly configurable–you can add or remove inputs and outputs

independently in groups of two and mix different types of input/ouput cards in the

same chassis. For example, you can configure a device as a 4 x 12 or a 16 x 8

matrix switcher to exactly suit your needs.

of up to 3.2Gbps (for the chassis only, effective

bandwidth of the system depends on the I/O cards) that ensures transparent

performance even in the most critical applications. The cards re-clock and equalize

the signals and the chassis can route any or all inputs to any or all outputs

simultaneously.

The VS-1616D features:

•Full 16 x 16 non-blocking matrix array to switch any of the 16 input digital

signals to any or all outputs (see Section 6

•Easy access to 59 preset memory locations for quick access to user-defined

setups

)

•The Kramer 2000 Protocol for serial control

•A 40 character by 2 line LCD that shows the operational status or the

configuration menu

•A lock function to prevent tampering with the front panel

•A default EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) for each input

•I-EDIDPro™ Kramer Intelligent EDID Processing™ – Intelligent EDID

handling and processing algorithm ensures plug and play operation for DVI

systems

•Non-volatile EDID storage

•Kramer Core™—flexible infrastructure conversion. Copper, fiber or

Twisted Pair, all can be used at the same time according to input/output

module selection. The matrix receives signals from compatible Kramer

transmitters, automatically converts between available infrastructure options

and sends the signals to compatible Kramer receivers

•Equalization and re-clocking on all card types

You can operate the VS-1616D via the front panel buttons3

•RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch screen system, PC or other

serial controller

or remotely via:

1 Can also be configured for other sizes (up to a maximum of 16 x 16)

2 For maximum bandwidth supported by each type of card see the Technical Specifications in Section 13

3 The VS-1616D is a sophisticated device but has been designed to be as simple as possible to operate. Due to space limitations on the

front panel 32 input/output selector buttons are instead substituted by a keypad. For details of how to route inputs to outputs, see

Section 7.2

Overview

•Ethernet over a LAN

•The infrared remote control transmitter

The VS-1616D is housed in a 19" rack-mountable enclosure.

To achieve the best performance:

•Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,

deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise

levels (often associated with low quality cables)

•Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may

adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer VS-1616D in a

location free from moisture and away from excessive sunlight and dust

3.1 Recommendations for Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

•Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) thus avoiding interference,

deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise

levels (often associated with low quality cables)

•Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils

•Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your

VS-1616D away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be

connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

3.2 Safety Instructions

Caution: No operator serviceable parts inside the unit

Warning: You use only the power cord that is supplied with the

unit. Do not open the unit. High voltages can cause

electrical shock! Servicing by qualified personnel only.

Warning: Disconnect the power and unplug the unit from the wall

before installing

3.1 Shielded Twisted Pair/Unshielded Twisted Pair

Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our

digital twisted pair products; Kramer's BC-DGKat524, BC-DGKat623 and

BC-DGKat7a23 shielded twisted pair (STP) cables. These specially built cables

significantly outperform regular CAT 6 and CAT 7a cables.

3.2 About the Power Connect™ Feature

The Power Connect™ feature here means that the VS-1616D can supply power to

the TP transmitters and receivers (for example, the PT-573 and PT-574) as long as

the devices are within 90m (270ft) of each other. The Power Connect™ feature

applies as long as the cable can carry power and the distance does not exceed 90m

on standard CAT 5 cable. For longer distances heavier gauge cable should be

used1

3.3 Recycling Kramer Products

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive 2002/96/EC

aims to reduce the amount of WEEE sent for disposal to landfill or incineration by

requiring it to be collected and recycled. To comply with the WEEE Directive,

Kramer Electronics has made arrangements with the European Advanced

Recycling Network (EARN) and will cover any costs of treatment, recycling and

recovery of waste Kramer Electronics branded equipment on arrival at the EARN

facility. For details of Kramer’s recycling arrangements in your particular country

go to our recycling pages at http://www.kramerelectronics.com/support/recycling/.
