6.4.2 Connecting the ETHERNET Port via a Network Hub (Straight-Through
Cable)
You can connect the Ethernet port of the VP-4x8 to the Ethernet port on a
network hub or network router, via a straight-through cable with RJ-45
connectors.
6.4.3 Control Configuration via the Ethernet Port
To control several units via the Ethernet, connect the Master unit
(MACH NO. 1) via the Ethernet port to the LAN port of your PC. Use your
PC initially to configure the settings (see section 6.4).

6.5.1 Setting the Delay
You can achieve clean transitions when switching between non-genlocked
sources by setting the delay time—ranging from 0sec to 3.5sec
DELAY dipswitches, as Table 5 defines. The VP-4x8 unit is shipped (its
factory default state) with no delay, that is, the DELAY dipswitches are set up
for a 0 sec delay.
