3 Overview
The Kramer VP-411DS is a high performance 4x1 automatic switcher for
UXGA signals and stereo audio signals. It switches any one of four UXGA
sources to the UXGA output 15-pin HD computer graphics video connector,
and any one of four stereo audio sources to the stereo audio output on a 3.5mm
mini jack. Both the UXGA and audio IN 1 connectors are connected to output
loop connectors.
The VP-411DS can be configured to operate in the automatic standby
switching mode or in the manual mode, via the dipswitches. When in the
automatic mode, the VP-411DS will switch to the primary input when it is
present. It will switch to the second input in priority upon loss of the primary
input
