Page 9: General Description
HD-212 General description The Simlatus HD-212 functions as an input transfer system that can switch between two high definition or SDI digital video input signals, A and B. This is accomplished automatically using the internal signal detect, or manually using either the local or remote select A/B switch.
Page 10 When power is applied, the A signal input is selected as the default mode. The output of the HD-212 can be either the A or B input. There are three 75 BNC connectors for the On-Line output and one BNC connector for the Off-Line output.
