Operations Guide - DOC. 8159A Professional Video Distribution Switch: CNX-PVID8x3 · 17 Professional Video Distribution Switch Crestron CNX-PVID8x3 Cabled Configuration (Composite/S-Video Only) AKA: 16 Video & Up to 16 S-Video or Video Sources NOTE: Dealing with a system that contains more than 16 sources?This configuration may be preferred as long as the system does not contain component video. To achieve this configuration, the unit must be opened and the cable assembly attached. Refer to "Cabling and Jumpers" on page 12 for details. The following figure shows the effect of connecting the cable between the level 1 and level 3 boards. The level 3 inputs become an extension of the level 1 board, resulting in a logical 32X8 switcher on level 1 and a 16X8 switcher on level 2; the level 3 outputs are not used. Conditions of this configuration; please read carefully! This configuration allows for the greatest number of sources, 32. However, those sources can only be composite (up to 32, when there is no S-video) and S-video (up to 16, maximum). The illustration after this paragraph provides a visual depiction of a system that utilizes the CNX-PVID8x3 in the composite/S-video only configuration. Notice that S-video sources can only be connected to input 1 through 16 (connect Y to level 1 and C to level 2). Installation of the cable assembly conceptually eliminates level 3 (thus component sources are not allowed with this configuration) and extends level 1 with 16 composite-only connections. Of course, if there are fewer than 16 S-video sources in the system, the number of composite sources can increase as long as the total number of composite and S-video sources does not exceed 32. NOTE: The composite sources connected to level 3 are switchable to the output on level 1. 18 · Professional Video Distribution Switch: CNX-PVID8x3 Operations Guide - DOC. 8159A Crestron CNX-PVID8x3 Professional Video Distribution Switch Illustration of Composite/S-Video Only Configuration Cabling and Jumpering Internal Boards: Cable between level 1 and level 3 is in place.
