Getting Started

Overview

3 Overview

The Kramer VS-44HDxl can be used as a high performance 4x4 matrix switcher

or as a dual-link 2x2 switcher that lets you simultaneously route any of the inputs

to any or all of the outputs for all SDI video signals, using BNC connectors.

In particular, the VS-44HDxl:

Supports up to 300m cable equalization (300m for SD

signals, 200m for

1.5GHz HD

signals, and 100m for 3GHz HD signals)

Operates up to 2.97Gbps – enabling it to be used for standard definition, high

definition and the new 3G high definition serial digital video signals

(SD/HD-SDI)

Is SMPTE 259M, 292M, 424M and 372M (for dual-link HD-SDI signals)

compliant and supports data rates of 270Mbps, 1483.5Mbps, 1485Mbps and

2970Mbps

Features reclocking and equalization on each input, the storing and

recalling of setups, and a TAKE button for the execution of multiple

switches all at once

Has selector buttons that automatically light up in different colors—green,

when the VS-44HDxl detects a ‘standard definition’ signal, or blue, when it

detects a ‘high definition’ signal

Features the ability to switch genlocked video signals according to timing of

the GENLOCK reference input. Switching according to the Bi-level or

Tri-level Genlock input according to SMPTE RP-168

The VS-44HDxl, which is housed in a 19" 1U rack mountable enclosure, and is

fed from a 100-240 VAC universal switching power supply, can be controlled via

the front panel buttons or via the:

Infrared remote control transmitter

Infrared remote extension cable transmitter

Remotely, by RS 232 or RS 485 serial commands transmitted by a touch

screen system, PC, or other serial controller

ETHERNET

Remote contact closure for forced operation

1 Standard Definition (SD) means an NTSC or PAL compatible video format, consisting of 480 (for NTSC) or 576 (for PAL)

lines of interlaced video

2 High Definition (HD) means a video format, consisting of 720 active lines of progressive video or 1080 lines of progressive

or interlaced video

3 The sources must be genlocked to the GENLOCK input in order to switch cleanly

KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY

Your VS-44HDxl 3G HD/SD-SDI 4x4 Matrix Switcher

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 VS-44HDxl away from

moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

(DUAL LINK) Buttons

Select the output to which the input is switched (from 1 to 4)

In the dual-link mode, select output DUAL LINK 1 or DUAL LINK 2 to

which the input is switched

5 STO (STORE) Button Pressing STO followed by an INPUT / OUTPUT button stores the

current setting

6 TAKE Button Pressing TAKE toggles the mode between the CONFIRM mode

and

the AT ONCE mode (user confirmation per action is unnecessary).

When in CONFIRM mode, the TAKE button implements a pending

operation

7 RCL (RECALL) Button Pressing the RCL button and the corresponding INPUT / OUTPUT

key recalls a setup from the non-volatile memory. After pressing the

same memory location the second time, the settings will take effect

8 ALL Button Pressing ALL followed by an INPUT button, connects that input to all

outputs

9 OFF Button An OFF-OUT combination disconnects that output from the inputs; an

OFF-ALL combination disconnects all the outputs

4.1 Using the IR Transmitter

You can use the RC-IR2 IR transmitter to control the machine via the built-in IR

receiver on the front panel or, instead, via an optional external IR receiver

. The

external IR receiver can be located 15 meters away from the machine. This

distance can be extended to up to 60 meters when used with three extension

cables

Before using the external IR receiver, be sure to arrange for your Kramer dealer

to insert the internal IR connection cable

with the 3.5mm connector that fits into

the REMOTE IR opening on the rear panel.

Connect the external IRreceiver to the REMOTE IR 3.5mm connector.

1 Push in to terminate the input. Release when the input extends to another unit

2 Via a null-modem connection

3 The ground connection is sometimes connected to the shield of the RS-485 cable. In most applications, the ground is not

connected

4 Covered by a cap. The 3.5mm connector at the end of the internal IR connection cable fits through this opening

5 Optional. Can be used instead of the front panel (built-in) IR receiver to remotely control the machine (only if the internal

IR connection cable has been installed)
