by function: GROUP 1: Distribution Amplifiers; GROUP 2: Switchers and Routers;

GROUP 3: Control Systems; GROUP 4: Format/Standards Converters; GROUP 5:

Range Extenders and Repeaters; GROUP 6: Specialty AV Products; GROUP 7:

Scan Converters and Scalers; GROUP 8: Cables and Connectors; GROUP 9:

Room Connectivity; GROUP 10: Accessories and Rack Adapters and GROUP 11:

Sierra Video Products.

Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer VS-3232DN 32x32 Digital Matrix

Switcher which is ideal for the following typical applications:

•Professional display systems requiring video signal routing

•Broadcast, presentation and production facilities, as well as monitoring in

large duplication systems

•Rental/staging applications

Note: Throughout this user manual the chassis configuration is shown with 32 DVI

inputs and 32 DVI outputs as a representation only. The following cards are

available and may be mixed in the same chassis:

•DVI, DVI dual link

•DVI (HDCP), HDMI (HDCP)

•DVI (over 4LC fiber optic cable)

•DVI (over fiber optic cable) with 670 module (HDCP)

•HDMI over DGKat twisted pair cable with RS-232 (HDCP)

2 VS-3232DN - Getting Started

2 Getting Started

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

•Use Kramer high performance high resolution cables

•Use only the power cord that is supplied with this machine

Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com to check for up-to-date

user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware

upgrades are available (where appropriate).

2.1 Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

•Use only good quality connection cables to avoid 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 that may adversely

influence signal quality

•Position your Kramer VS-3232DN away from moisture, excessive sunlight

and dust

VS-3232DN - Overview 3

3 Overview

The Kramer VS-3232DN is a high performance matrix switcher chassis that

supports up to 32 x 32 ports. It features a very high bandwidth 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.

For maximum bandwidth supported by each type of card see the Technical

Specifications in Section 13

The VS-3232DN is highly configurable–you can add or remove inputs and outputs

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

same chassis up to 32 x 32. For example, you can configure a device as a 4 x 24

or a 32 x 8 matrix switcher to exactly suit your needs.

The VS-3232DN features:

•Full 32 x 32 non-blocking matrix array to switch any of the 32 input digital

signals to any or all outputs (with limitations, see Section 6

•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

)

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

handling and processing algorithm ensures plug and play operation for

DVI/HDMI systems

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

•Non-volatile EDID storage

•Equalization and re-clocking on all card types

•Support for dual, redundant power supplies

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

setups

4 VS-3232DN - Overview

•The Kramer 2000 Protocol for serial control

•A lock function to prevent tampering with the front panel

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

configuration menu

You can operate the VS-3232DN via the front panel buttons or remotely via:

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

serial controller

•Ethernet over a LAN

•The infrared remote control transmitter

The VS-3232DN is a sophisticated device but has been designed to be as simple

as possible to operate. Due to space limitations on the front panel a keypad

substitutes for 64 individual input/output selector buttons. For details of how to

route inputs to outputs, see Section 6

3.1 Defining EDID

. The VS-3232DN is housed in a 19" rack-

mountable enclosure.

The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) is a data-structure provided by a

display, to describe its capabilities to a graphics card (that is connected to the display’s

source). The EDID enables the VS-3232DN to “know” what kind of monitor is

connected to the output. The EDID includes the manufacturer’s name, the product type,

the timing data supported by the display, the display size, luminance data and (for

digital displays only) the pixel mapping data. EDID is defined by a standard published

by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA).

3.2 About the Power Connect™ Feature

The Power Connect™ feature means that the VS-3232DN can supply power over the

TP cable to compatible DGKat devices (for example, the TP-573 or TP-574) when 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

TP cable. For longer distances, use heavier gauge cable (TP cable is still suitable for

the video/audio transmission, but not for feeding power at these distances).
