2-1. Main Functions of Router System
1) The routing switcher is equipped with a system controller. It therefore does not require an
additional controller for controlling the routing switchers.
2) By the cascade connection, up to 512 x 512 crosspoints can be selected.
3) Up to 8 levels can be assigned.
4) Up to 254 units can be controlled in a system.
5) Each output signal can be protected so that they will not be switched by other control units.
(Protect function)
6) Each input signal can be prohibited to be selected from all the control units. (Secret function)
* 7) The inputs that can be selected for each output can be limited. (Crosspoint disable setting
function)
* 8) Password function
* 9) The either name of “Type + Number” or “Description” can be set for input/output connectors.
* 10) A crosspoint matrix can be mapped on a virtual matrix. (Virtual mapping function)
* 11) To each connector name, a different connector number can be assigned on each level.
(Free assignment function)
* 12) Input and output signals can be monitored using the optional monitor board BKDS-V3292B.
(Monitoring function)
* 13) You can enable the system to automatically select the signal lines between two routing switchers.

* : DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232 only (BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232 has no monitor function described
“12”).
DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232 outstanding offers new functions as a primary
station. To get the best out of the system, we recommend that DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 or
HDS-V3232 is used as a primary station.
BKPF-R70 switches the crosspoint at a highest speed in the four switchers by mounted RISC CPU.
The following outlines each function. (For details of how to set them, refer to the Section 5 “System
Settings”.)
