Your VP-350 1:3 High Resolution UXGA DA
The VP-350:
Accepts one input, provides correct buffering and isolation, and then distributes
the signal to 3 identical outputs on high-density 15-pin HD connectors
Has a video bandwidth exceeding 400MHz, ensuring that the machine
remains transparent even at high-resolution graphics modes such as
UXGA (1600x1200)
Accepts analog or digital syncs1 and provides ID Bit control2
Can output video signals that are DC or AC coupled for maximum
flexibility (selected via the red, green and blue coupling buttons)
To achieve the best performance:
Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,
deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise
levels (often associated with low quality cables)
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may
adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer VP-350 away
from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Figure 1, Figure 2 and Table 1 define the VP-350 unit:
1 The polarity is determined via a pair of underside switches. Note that both the Hs (horizontal sync) switch and the Vs
(vertical sync) switch should be set identically
2 Via an underside switch. Sometimes notebook computers refuse to output a VGA signal to an external VGA monitor. By
setting the ID BIT to ON, the notebook will output to an external VGA monitor
