NOTE: THE LABELING OF INPUTS 17 THROUGH 32 BECOMES USEFUL WHEN PROGRAMMING. NOTE: DIGITAL AUDIO CAN ONLY BE DISTRIBUTED FOR A TOTAL OF 16 SOURCES. IF DIGITAL AUDIO IS DISTRIBUTED WITH THE S-VIDEO DEVICE CONNECTED TO INPUT 1, INPUT 17 WOULD BE PROHIBITED FROM USING LEVEL 4 FOR DIGITAL AUDIO (AND VICE VERSA). THE SAME IS TRUE FOR PAIRED INPUTS 2&18, 3&19, UP TO 16&32. HOWEVER, WHEN PROGRAMMING DIGITAL AUDIO, USE THE INPUT NUMBER LESS THAN 16. Limited Quantity of Any-Type Configuration AKA: 8 Video, Up to 8 S-Video/Video, and Up to 8 Component/S-Video/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 more than eight component video sources. This configuration somewhat mimics the out-of-the-box configuration, but there are differences. The first difference is that jumpers need to be removed and the cable assembly must be attached. Refer to "Cabling and Jumpers" on page 8 for details. Secondly, even though the total number of mixed sources allowed in this configuration is greater, it does not permit more than eight component sources at any time. Operations Guide - DOC. 8166A Professional Video Distribution Switch: CNX-PVID8x4 · 17 Professional Video Distribution Switch Conditions of this configuration; please read carefully! Crestron CNX-PVID8x4 This configuration allows for up to 24 sources. However, those sources cannot exceed more than eight component, more than 16 S-video (assuming no component sources), more than 24 composite (when there is no S-video and no component). The illustration after this paragraph provides a visual depiction of a system that utilizes the limited quantity of any-type configuration. Some of the sources also include digital audio. Notice that component sources can only be connected to input 9 through 16 (levels 1, 2, & 3) and that S-video sources can only connect to input 1 through 8 (levels 1 and 2). Installation of the cable assembly and removal of jumpers splits level 3 (thus component sources are restricted to inputs 9 through 16) and extends level 1 with eight composite-only connections. Of course, if there are fewer than eight component (or eight S-video) sources in the system, the number of S-video and/or composite sources can increase as long as the total number of sources does not exceed 24.
