Welcome

The CH-1 adapter kit is designed to allow the connection of Sony DVP-CX777ES
DVD Mega Changers to the Vision VS and VC media clients. Please read the
following instructions before attempting to install a Sony Changer with a Vision
client. Each Escient Vision VS supports up to 4 changers and the VC supports
one changer. One CH-1 Adapter Kit is required for each changer.

CH-1 Kit Components

• Component/Digital to HDMI Audio/Video Adapter

• Power Supply

• Keyspan USB to Serial adapter

• USB Type A to Type B cable

• Component Video Cable

• Digital Audio Cable

What You Need to Setup the CH-1 Adapter Kit

• Vision Series VS or VC client

• A Sony DVP-CX777ES Changer

• Null modem female to female serial cable

• HDMI cable of the appropriate length (not included)

Important:

Each Vision VS or VC client supports only one CH1- Adapter kit. If you are
installing more than one changer you will need to purchase an optional Keyspan
4 Port USB Serial Adapter and install it in place of the single Keyspan USB to
Serial adapter that is included in the CH-1 Kit. The 4 port unit retails for about
$150.00 US.

If you plan on using one or mote external changers and controlling Vision via RS­232 you will also need to purchase the Keyspan 4 port USB adapter. It is always
preferable to use TCP/IP for eternal control if your control system supports it.
