KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY

Overview

3 Overview

The Kramer VS-6YC s-Video 4x4 Matrix Switcher is a high quality 4x4

matrix switcher for composite and/or s-Video and stereo audio signals, letting

you route any input to any or all outputs simultaneously.

The VS-6YC features:

 Composite video and s-Video connectors for use with either format

 Four router knobs, one for each of the four outputs

The VS-6YC is easy to use, dependable, rugged, and fits into one vertical

space of a standard 19” rack.

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-6YC

away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

4 Your VS-6YC s-Video 4x4 Matrix Switcher

Figure 1 and Table 1 define the VS-6YC s-Video 4x4 Matrix Switcher:

1 However, although a mixing of formats is possible the VS-6YC does not perform any signal format conversion. Thus

composite video sources need to be routed to composite video outputs and likewise, s-Video sources must be routed to

s-Video outputs

Installing the VS-6YC on a Rack

5 Installing the VS-6YC on a Rack

This section describes what to do before installing on a rack and how to rack

mount.

Before Installing on a Rack

Before installing on a rack, be sure that the environment is

within the recommended range:

Operating temperature range +5 to +45 Deg. Centigrade

Operating humidity range 5 to 65 % RHL, non-condensing

Storage temperature range -20 to +70 Deg. Centigrade

Storage humidity range 5 to 95% RHL, non-condensing

CAUTION!!

When installing on a 19" rack, avoid hazards by taking

care that:

It is located within the recommended environmental

conditions, as the operating ambient temperature of a

closed or multi unit rack assembly may exceed the room

ambient temperature.

Once rack mounted, enough air will still flow around the

machine.

The machine is placed straight in the correct horizontal

position.

You do not overload the circuit(s). When connecting the

machine to the supply circuit, overloading the circuits

might have a detrimental effect on overcurrent

protection and supply wiring. Refer to the appropriate

nameplate ratings for information. For example, for fuse

replacement, see the value printed on the product label.

The machine is earthed (grounded) in a reliable way

and is connected only to an electricity socket with

grounding. Pay particular attention to supply

connections other than direct connections to the branch

circuit (for example, the use of power strips), and that

you use only the power cord that is supplied with the

machine.

How to Rack Mount

To rack-mount the machine:

Attach both ear brackets to the

machine. To do so, remove the

screws from each side of the

machine (3 on each side), and

replace those screws through

the ear brackets.

Place the ears of the machine

against the rack rails, and insert

the proper screws (not

provided) through each of the

four holes in the rack ears.

Note that:

In some models, the front panel

may feature built-in rack ears

Detachable rack ears can be

removed for desktop use

Always mount the machine in the

rack before you attach any cables or

connect the machine to the power

If you are using a Kramer rack

adapter kit (for a machine that is not

19"), see the Rack Adapters user

manual for installation instructions

Connecting the VS-6YC

6 Connecting the VS-6YC

To connect the VS-6YC s-Video 4x4 Matrix Switcher, as the example in

Figure 2 illustrates

, do the following

1. Connect

the sources as follows:

 An s-Video source to (for example, s-Video player 1) to the VIDEO

INPUT 1 4p connector

 A composite video source (for example, composite video player 2) to

the VIDEO INPUT 2 BNC connector

 An s-Video source to (for example, s-Video player 3) to the VIDEO

INPUT 3 4p connector

 A composite video source (for example, composite video player 4) to

the VIDEO INPUT 4 BNC connector

 Up to four unbalanced stereo audio sources to the L and R AUDIO

INPUTS RCA connectors (not shown in Figure 2)

The input signal format must match that of the output signal format.

For example, if an input is composite video, then the output which it is switched

to should also be composite video

2. Connect

the acceptors as follows:

 The VIDEO OUTPUT A 4p connector to an s-Video acceptor (for

example, s-Video recorder A)

 The VIDEO OUTPUT B BNC connector to a composite video

acceptor (for example, composite video recorder B)

 The VIDEO OUTPUT C 4p connector to an s-Video acceptor (for

example, s-Video recorder C)

 The VIDEO OUTPUT D BNC connector to a composite video

acceptor (for example, composite video recorder D)

1 You do not have to connect all the inputs and outputs, connect only those that are required

2 Switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your VS-6YC. After connecting your VS-6YC, switch on its

power and then switch on the power on each device

3 For each channel (from 1 to 4) you can connect either a composite video source to the VIDEO INPUT BNC connector or

an s-Video source to the VIDEO INPUT 4p connector. Up to four sources can be connected

4 Composite video sources must be routed to composite video acceptors and s-Video sources must be routed to s-Video

acceptors, since the VS-6YC does not perform any signal format conversion

5 For each channel (from A to D) you can connect either a composite video acceptor to the VIDEO OUTPUT BNC

connector or an s-Video acceptor to the VIDEO OUTPUT 4p connector. Up to four acceptors can be connected

Connecting the VS-6YC

 The L and R AUDIO OUTPUTS RCA connector (not shown in

Figure 2) to up to four unbalanced stereo audio acceptors (for

example, audio amplifiers)

3. Connect the power cord (not shown in Figure 2).

Set the TO OUTPUT select knobs to switch each connected input to the

desired output(s).
