3 Overview
The VS-808DS 8x8 Video Audio Matrix Switcher / Scaler is a high
performance matrix switcher for composite video and unbalanced stereo
audio signals. It lets you simultaneously route any or all of the eight inputs to
any or all of the eight outputs, plus one scaled output
1
(that is, output 8 also
goes to the Scaler). Switching during the vertical interval ensures glitch-free
switching with genlocked sources.
The VS-808DS features:
A video bandwidth of 200MHz that ensures transparent performance even
in the most critical applications
Switching synchronization that lets you synchronize either to the external
reference or to the incoming video
Both audio-follow-video and breakaway options
The storing of eight setups

(presets) to be recalled and executed when
needed
A TAKE button for executing multiple switches all at once
The ability to control via the front panel buttons, via the infra-red remote
control transmitter, via an external remote IR receiver (optional
3
) and
remotely by RS-485 or RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch
screen system, PC, or other serial controller
Scaled graphics output resolutions: VGA (640x480), SVGA (800x600),
XGA (1024x768), or WXGA (1366x768)
Acceptance of PAL-B/D/G/H/I, NTSC 3.58, and NTSC 4.43 video formats
The VS-808DS is housed in a 19" 2U rack-mountable enclosure and is fed
from a 100-240 VAC universal switching power supply.
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 and position
your VS-808DS away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
