Overview

The VP-4x4xl is a true 4x4 matrix switcher for computer graphics (up to UXGA)
signals and balanced stereo audio signals. The VP-4x4xl enables the user to
simultaneously route any or all of the four inputs to any or all of the four outputs.
In addition, the VP-4x4xl includes:
A video bandwidth of 300MHz that ensures transparent UXGA performance
Easy-to-connect detachable terminal block connectors on which the audio
signals reside
DC coupled inputs and outputs
A delayed switching mode (ranging from 0 to 3.5sec
transitions (seamless switching) when switching between non-genlocked
sources
Audio-follow-video and breakaway options
Storing and recalling setup options
A TAKE button for precise switch control that lets you execute multiple
switches all at once
A LOCK button to prevent tampering with the front panel
The ability to automatically detect connected input signals (respective button
illuminates in green)
Control the VP-4x4xl using the front panel buttons, or remotely via:
RS-485 or RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch screen system,
PC, or other serial controller
The Kramer RC-IR2 Infra-Red Remote Control Transmitter
An external remote IR receiver (optional), see section 4.1
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 VP-4x4xl
away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
