Setting the VSW I AAP jumpers
A jumper on the VSW I AAP may need to be shifted from jumper J6 (the default position) to J5, depending on the application (see
figure 10).

Daisy Chain Configuration

Multiple VSW 2VGA A switchers can be daisy chained together in a loop configuration or a tree configuration.
NOTE:
Daisy chaining uses all pins and wires of a standard VGA cable. Not all VGA cables include all pins and wires. Ensure
the VGA cable that you use has all 15 pins connected.

Loop configuration

In a loop configuration, the output of each VSW 2VGA A is connected to Input 2 of the next VSW 2VGA A switcher. This repetition
of one switcher output to another switcher input can be repeated for up to a maximum of 10 switchers in a daisy chain. The
output of the first switcher is connected to a display.
Source signals are connected to Input 1 of each VSW 2VGA A switcher either directly or through the VSW I AAP interface. Select
the source by toggling to Input 1 on the VSW 2VGA A front panel (or through contact closure on the rear panel) or by pressing the
VSW I AAP Show Me button for the corresponding switcher.
• Up to 10 switchers can be daisy chained in this configuration without any signal degradation.
• A power supply is required for every 5 switchers.
• Configure the jumpers on each VSW 2VGA A according to the example in
• The VSW I AAP is configured for a loop configuration by default.
