10. gh quality Video Matrix Switcher incorporating a video scaler and transcoder housed in a tough and compact 1RU rack mountable metal enclosure With its unique feature the VC12 8 has been specifically designed for the classroom applications An example of a typical set up may include inputs from several computers as well as composite and s video or component video connections from DVD document camera or VHS players all being routed to several monitors or projectors At the heart of the unit is a 8 x 8 VGA XGA matrix switcher suitable for switching laptops PC s and video devices However the VC12 8 offers the ability for an additional two stage selectable component composite s video input to be routed to any one of the switchers 8 outputs effectively making the unit a 12 x 8 matrix switcher No need to worry about the input format as the switcher transcodes and scales the signal component composite S video The two stage selectable control stated above refers to first selecting the input and then selecting the output format either component RGBHV or scaled VGA 1024 x 768 This extra set of inputs is extremely useful for the classroom as it allows any industry standard video projector monitor to be connected to a range of sources allowing complete flexibility for the demonstrator The VC12 8 can be controlled via serial RS 232 connection or via TCP IP with minimal configuration TCP IP Configuration allows the VC12 8 to be plugged into an
