2.1 Quick Start

The following quick start chart summarizes the basic setup and operation steps.

Getting Started

KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY

Overview

3 Overview

The Kramer VS-1616D is a high performance matrix switcher chassis that supports

up to 16 x 16 ports

for various signals (depending on the type of cards installed).

It features a very high bandwidth

of up to 3.2Gbps (for the chassis only, effective

bandwidth of the system depends on the I/O cards) that ensures transparent

performance even in the most critical applications. The cards re-clock and equalize

the signals and the chassis can route any or all inputs to any or all outputs

simultaneously.

The VS-1616D is highly configurable–you can add or remove inputs and outputs

independently in groups of two and mix different types of input/ouput cards in the

same chassis. For example, you can configure a device as a 4 x 12 or a 16 x 8

matrix switcher to exactly suit your needs.

The VS-1616D features:

Full 16 x 16 non-blocking matrix array to switch any of the 16 input digital

signals to any or all outputs (see Section 6)

Easy access to 59 preset memory locations for quick access to user-defined

setups

Fast switching on outputs to reduce or remove switching delay

The Kramer 2000 Protocol for serial control

A 40 character by 2 line LCD that shows the operational status or the

configuration menu

A lock function to prevent tampering with the front panel

A default EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) for each input

EDID Capture –Copies and stores the EDID from a display device

EDID PassThru –Passes EDID/HDCP signals from source to display

Non-volatile EDID storage

Kramer Core™—flexible infrastructure conversion. Copper, fiber or

Twisted Pair, all can be used at the same time according to input/output

module selection. The matrix receives signals from compatible Kramer

transmitters, automatically converts between available infrastructure options

and sends the signals to compatible Kramer receivers

Equalization and re-clocking on all card types

Can also be configured for other sizes (up to a maximum of 16 x 16)

For maximum bandwidth supported by each type of card see the Technical Specifications in Section 13

Overview

You can operate the VS-1616D via the front panel buttons

or remotely via:

RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch screen system, PC or other

serial controller

Ethernet over a LAN

The infrared remote control transmitter

Kramer K-Router Plus software application

The VS-1616D is housed in a 19" rack-mountable enclosure.

To achieve the best performance:

Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,

deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise

levels (often associated with low quality cables)

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may

adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer VS-1616D in a

location free from moisture and away from excessive sunlight and dust

3.1 Recommendations for Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) thus avoiding interference,

deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise

levels (often associated with low quality cables)

Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your

VS-1616D away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be

connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

3.2 Safety Instructions

Caution:

No operator serviceable parts inside the unit

Warning:

You use only the power cord that is supplied with the

unit. Do not open the unit. High voltages can cause

electrical shock! Servicing by qualified personnel only.

Warning:

Disconnect the power and unplug the unit from the wall

before installing

The VS-1616D is a sophisticated device but has been designed to be as simple as possible to operate. Due to space limitations on the

front panel 32 input/output selector buttons are instead substituted by a keypad. For details of how to route inputs to outputs, see

Section 7.4

KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY

Overview

3.1 Shielded Twisted Pair/Unshielded Twisted Pair

Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our

digital twisted pair products; Kramer's BC-DGKat524, BC-DGKat623/

BC-HDKat6a and BC-DGKat7a23 shielded twisted pair (STP) cables. These

specially built cables significantly outperform regular CAT 6 and CAT 7a cables.

3.2 About the Power Connect™ Feature

The Power Connect™ feature here means that the VS-1616D can supply power to

the TP transmitters and receivers (for example, the PT-573 and PT-574).

3.3 About Fast Switching

Older display devices require a longer time between the loss of one digital signal

and the introduction of another, as well as a physical disconnection of the

interconnecting cable in order to be able to detect and adjust to the new video

attributes and parameters. Normal switching, therefore, introduced a 5V signal

disconnection along with a delay in switching. Many newer display devices,

however, are now capable of accepting “on-the-fly” switching.

Depending on the display device in use, the VS-1616D allows for fast switching

(minor reset and the connection kept alive) and extra fast switching (no reset and

the connection kept alive), see Section 8.2.4. Using the fast and extra fast

switching modes allows for fraction-of-a-second switching times when using high

performance display devices or when using a scaler on the video output.

3.4 About HDBaseT™ Technology

HDBaseT™ is an advanced all-in-one connectivity technology (supported by the

HDBaseT Alliance). It is particularly suitable in the consumer home environment

as a digital home networking alternative where it enables you to replace numerous

cables and connectors by a single LAN cable used to transmit, for example,

uncompressed full high definition video, audio, IR, as well as various control

signals.

The products described in this user manual are HDBaseT certified.
