2.1 Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

• Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in

signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often

associated with low quality cables)

• Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils

• Avoid interference from neighbouring electrical appliances that may adversely

influence signal quality

• Position your VS-1616D away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our

digital twisted pair products; Kramer’s BC-UNIKat shielded twisted pair (U/FTP)

cables. These specially built cables significantly outperform regular CAT 6 and

CAT 7a cables.

2.5 About Fast Switching

Older display devices require a longer time between the loss of one digital signal

and the introduction of another, as well as a physical disconnection of the

interconnecting cable in order to be able to detect and adjust to the new video

attributes and parameters. Normal switching, therefore, introduced a 5V signal

disconnection along with a delay in switching. Many newer display devices,

however, are now capable of accepting “on-the-fly” switching.

4 VS-1616D – Getting Started

Depending on the display device in use, the VS-1616D allows for fast switching

(minor reset and the connection kept alive) and extra fast switching (no reset and

the connection kept alive), see Section 7.2.4

modes allows for fraction-of-a-second switching times when using high performance

display devices or when using a scaler on the video output.

2.6 About HDBaseT™ Technology

HDBaseT™ is an advanced all-in-one connectivity technology (supported by the

HDBaseT Alliance). It is particularly suitable in the consumer home environment as

a digital home networking alternative where it enables you to replace numerous

cables and connectors by a single LAN cable used to transmit, for example,

uncompressed full high definition video, audio, IR, as well as various control

signals.

The products described in this user manual are HDBaseT certified.

5.1 Port Numbering

On all cards apart from the DVI dual link cards, there are two physical ports on

each card and numbering of ports is sequential from top to bottom and left to right.

Each DVI dual link card provides one physical port which causes the loss of one

number in the numbering sequence of that card only. A sample numbering is shown

in Figure 5

5.1.1 EDID Numbering Examples

The following EDID configuration is based on the port numbering shown in Figure 5

and lists requested switching configurations and their results.

AV data flow is: source > VS-1616D > display. EDID information flow is: display > VS-1616D > source, which means that the EDID input is the display side and the EDID output is the AV source side.

VS-1616D - Connecting the VS-1616D 15

When assigning EDIDs, note that the top row of the LCD display labeled OUTPUTS

relates to the ports connected to the sources (AV inputs), and the bottom row of the

LCD display labeled INPUTS relates to the ports connected to displays (AV

outputs).

show only 13 out of the 16 available matrix combinations at once. To view any of

the matrix combinations use the ◄ or the ► buttons on the front panel to shift the

sliding window to the right or left.

This sliding window functionality is enabled when:

• The switcher is in between operations (waiting for its next operation while all

previous operations are complete or cancelled)

• Recalling a setup using the ◄ or ► buttons

When entering an output/input combination, the contents of the LCD display automatically shift to indicate the current status of the selected output.

6.2 Using the Selector Buttons

For numbers between 1 and 9, the VS-1616D can handle two digit numbers as well

as single digit numbers. When entering a single digit number (for example 5), you

can either press 0 followed by 5, or 5 followed by ENT.

Pressing 00 (or 0, ENT) is only relevant for an input and is used to disconnect the

currently entered output number from the input.

For example, the following display indicates that outputs 8 and 12 are disconnected

from any input (note that the corresponding inputs in the second line are blank):

The ESC button is used to cancel an operation without affecting the current status.

For example, if you enter an incorrect number by mistake, press the ESC button to

cancel the operation.

At any stage, if no button is pressed within approximately 15 seconds, the automatic timeout causes the VS-1616D to exit the
