Overview 3 Overview The VP-81KSi routes any input to both outputs, using 15-pin HD female connectors for the computer graphics video signals, a 3.5mm mini jack for the unbalanced stereo audio Output 1 signal, and a detachable terminal block connector for the balanced stereo audio Output 2 signal. In particular, the VP-81KSi: • Has a very high video bandwidth ensuring transparent WUXGA performance • Features audio-follow-video (AFV) in which all operations relate to both the video and th

Overview 3.1 Defining EDID 1 The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID ) is a data-structure, provided by a display that describes its capabilities to a graphics card (that is connected to the display’s source). The EDID enables the PC or laptop to “know” what kind of monitor is connected to the output. The EDID includes the manufacturer’s name, product type, timing data supported by the display, display size, luminance data and (for digital displays only) pixel mapping data.

Defining the VP-81KSi 8x1 UXGA/Audio STEP-IN Switcher 4.1 Using the IR Transmitter for the VP-81KSi You can use the RC-IR3 IR transmitter to operate the machine via the built-in IR 1 receiver on the front panel or, instead, via an optional external IR receiver . The external IR receiver can be located 15m (49ft) away from the machine. This distance can be extended to up to 60m (197ft) when used with three extension 2 cables Before using the external IR receiver, be sure to arrange for your

Connecting the VP-81KSi 8x1 UXGA/Audio STEP-IN Switcher You can configure RS-232-2 port command macros to send any data on one of the two possible triggers: • The “Device startup” trigger. This trigger is generated when one or more signals are detected on any of the inputs and can be used for example, to activate a projector connected to the output of the VP-81KSi • The “Device inactivity” trigger. This trigger is generated when there is no signal detected on any input during the inactiv
