1-5SW AV Series Switchers • Introduction
Audio follow — If the switcher is also a video model, audio can be switched with
the corresponding video input. Audio follow switching can be done via front
panel control or under RS-232 remote control.
Audio breakaway — If the switcher is also a video model, audio can be broken
away from its corresponding video input signal. Audio breakaway switching
can be done via front panel control or under RS-232 remote control.
Executive mode (front panel security lockout)— All switchers that route audio
have an executive mode that locks out the I/O (video/audio/video and
audio) selection button, toggling between autoswitch and normal mode, and
all audio gain and attenuation adjustments at the front panel. If a switcher is
installed in an open area, where operation by unauthorized personnel may be
a problem, the switcher can be placed in executive mode. When the front
panel is locked, a special button combination is required to unlock the front
panel controller before audio gain and attenuation can be adjusted locally.
When the front panel is locked out, audio gain and attenuation is still
available via the RS-232 link.
All switcher models
Operational flexibility — The operator can select the input, set the audio gain and
attenuation for each input, set the switch mode, and toggle executive mode
on and off using:
• Front panel controller — The SW AV series front panel controller supports
touch-of-a-button input selection, audio gain and attenuation control, switch
mode selection, and executive mode selection.
• RS-232 control — The switcher’s RS-232 link on the RS-232 (SW 8 and SW 12
models) or Remote (SW 4 and SW 6 models) port. The RS-232 link allows
remote control via a PC or control system.
