switch on the power to each device.
To connect the VP-473, as illustrated in the example in Figure 2:
1. Connect the SDI video source (for example, a digital camera) to the SDI IN
BNC connector.
2. Connect the SDI OUT BNC connector to the SDI display.
3. Connect the LEFT and RIGHT AUDIO OUT RCA connectors to the
unbalanced stereo audio amplifier.
4. Connect the PC/HD OUT connector to the graphics acceptor (for example, a
plasma display). If using a 15-pin HD to component cable, connect the pins
