Remote Controlled Component Video Switcher
SPECIFICATIONS:
Power: 12 vdc 500ma power supply included
Connectors: RCA audio and video / RS-232 computer interface

The Luma Series of remote controlled video switchers are designed to offer convenient A/B video switching.
Multiple switchers can be used, allowing for up to six monitor locations controlled by a ProScan/RCA remote.
INSTALLATION
With power off, make connections to your Luma Series switcher following the wiring diagram on the back of this
sheet. Once all the connections have been made, plug in the power supply to start up the unit. 1/8" jacks are
provided for emitter in ( for use with remote relay systems) and for the included infrared sensor (for remote
control in the same room).
OPERATION
The rotary switch in the front of the switcher sets the ID number for the particular Luma Video Switcher. The
front rocker switch changes between Toggle and Discreet IR codes.
TOGGLE MODE: In Toggle mode, 6 individual Luma's may be controlled via the 6 source selector button
functions on ProScan/RCA remotes. The source buttons are: Video 1, Video 2, CD, Tape, TV, Tuner. If there is a
conflict with any other RCA equipment in the system, then the rotary switch can be moved to relieve the conflict.
In the Toggle mode, each press of a button will cause the Luma to change from "A" to "B" in a circular fashion.
Available rotary switch positions are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
DISCRETE MODE: In Discrete Mode, only 3 individual Luma's may be controlled as the "A" and "B" input
sources are selected via an individual remote control code. Available rotary switch positions are: 1, 2, and 3.

Messages from Video Switchers:
When ever SW receives an RS232 command, it will respond with a message. If the SW changes position it will respond as in
the two following examples:
If a redundant command is sent, i.e. "change to position (A) when the switch is already in that position, or the rotary switch
on the front of the unit is set to a different SW ID number, then the Luma will send an error message, i.e.
In all cases, when the Luma responds it will tell you what SW ID is currently set to be, and whether it is in the "A" or "B"
position.
