This configuration is used only when you want to simulataneously switch two inputs to different pairs of outputs For example you have four screens in one location and want to switch all of those inputsto four other screens in another location A real life example would be a four screen video wall using 4 AVRouter units The four images must remain together As an example Imagine having a two screend video wall presentation Each screen has a seperate input If you want to switch both of these inputs into a separate set of screens connect the AVRouters with the following configuration 1 The video inputs must connect to two seperate routers You can connect the left screen to one of the routers and the right screen into the other Make sure that thy are both connected into the same input number 2 Also make sure that the outputs are also seprated into the different routers Make sure that all of the left screen inputs and outputs remain on the same router Do the same for the right screen inputs and outputs On the following page you will see the setup configuration to connect four AVRouter units and have them route a 4 screen presentation to multiple outputs Page 14 BANK 1 BANK 2 BANK3 BANK 4 Monitor 1 to Router 4 Output 1 Monitor 1 to Router 3 Output 1 Monitor 1 to Router 2 Output 1 Monitor 1 to Router 1 Output 1 VIDEOWALL MONITOR BANKS Monitor 2 to Router 4 Output 2
