Kramer DIP-20 [17/81] Input selection

DIP-20 - Principles of Operation

6 Principles of Operation

The DIP-20 selects video and audio inputs based on the rules described below.

6.1 Input Selection

The video mode selection is set by the DIP-switches (see Section 8.1) to either

of the following modes:

 Manual

 Auto—Last connected or priority mode

In manual mode switching occurs whether or not there is a live signal present

on the input. You select manually select an input using any of the following

methods:

 Front panel buttons

 Remote input selection switches

 RS-232 control

 The Web pages

In auto mode, the switching selection is performed based on either last

connected or priority input.

In last connected mode, if the signal on the current input is lost, the DIP-20

automatically selects the last connected input, (the delay depending on a

configurable timeout).

In priority mode, when the input sync signal is lost for any reason, the input with

a live signal and next in priority is selected automatically, (the delay depending

on the configurable signal-lost timeout). This priority is configurable; the default

setting is HDMI 1 → HDMI 2 → PC.

Note: In both last connected and priority modes, manually selecting an input

(using the remote input selection switches or any of the above methods)

overrides automatic selection.
