Introduction  
About this Manual  
This manual contains information about the Extron  
VSW 2VGA A switcher. The terms “VSW 2VGA A” and  
“switcher” are used interchangeably in this manual. The Extron  
VSW I AAP interface (part # 70-529-xx), an optional accessory  
used when several VSW 2VGA A switchers are daisy chained  
together, is also discussed.  
About the VSW 2VGA A  
The Extron VSW 2VGA A is a compact and economical two-  
input, one-output VGA switcher with unbalanced stereo  
audio and 300 MHz (-3 dB) video bandwidth. It accepts two  
VGA-QXGA, RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, RsGsBs, component video,  
or HDTV component video inputs. The switcher has two  
unbalanced stereo audio inputs and one unbalanced stereo  
audio output. It also features a buffered local monitor output  
for Input 1.  
A front panel toggle switch, a contact closure controller, or the  
autoswitching option can be used for input selection.

Daisy Chaining the VSW 2VGA A  
Up to ten VSW 2VGA A switchers can be daisy chained together  
with each switcher's input separately fed and controlled by an  
optional accessory interface, the VSW I AAP (part #70-529-xx).  
Figure 1-1 is an example of how several such switcher-interface  
combinations can be daisy chained together in a boardroom  
environment.

Figure 1-1 — Daisy chaining the multiple switchers  
By default, all switchers are set to input 2 as the active input;  
therefore, in a daisy chain of switchers the VGA and audio  
signals flow from one switcher to input 2 of the next switcher in  
the chain. The switchers are daisy chained in this fashion until  
the last switcher in the daisy chain outputs to a projector and  
audio amplifier.  
Up to ten switchers can be daisy chained together without any  
degradation in picture quality. One power supply powers up to  
five switchers.

Rack shelf mounting  
UL rack mounting guidelines  
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines  
pertain to the safe installation of the VSW 2VGA A in a rack.  
1.  
Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in  
a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient  
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than  
room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the switcher  
in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient  
temperature (Tma = +122° F, +50° C) specified by Extron.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that  
the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the  
equipment is not compromised.  
Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack  
so that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to  
uneven mechanical loading.  
Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to  
the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit  
overloading might have on overcurrent protection and  
supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment  
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this  
concern.  
5.  
Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable  
grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular  
attention to supply connections other than direct  
connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).  
Rack mounting instructions  
1. If feet were installed on the bottom of the switcher, remove

Autoswitching requires TTL level sync on pin 13 of the  
15-pin HD connector.  
Pins 1, 2, and Ground when jumpered/shorted together (as  
shown at right) turn the autoswitching mode on. When  
the autoswitching mode is on, the switcher automatically  
switches to the input that has an active sync signal.

If both inputs have an active sync signal present, input  
2 is selected, and the input 2 LED indicator lights. If no active  
sync signal is present, the input 1 LED indicator still lights to  
indicate that the unit is still powered on.  
When the autoswitch mode is active, both daisy chaining  
and the front panel's input toggle switch are disabled,  
and the input cannot be manually switched. Any attempt  
to toggle the switch while the switcher is in this mode  
results in the flashing of the currently active input's  
LED indicator. Contact closure is also disabled while in  
autoswitch mode.  
N
Setting the VSW 2VGA A Jumpers  
If you plan to use the VSW I AAP and/or create a daisy  
N
chain configuration, you must configure the switchers  
before installing them in a rack or furniture and making  
connections.  
Daisy chaining VSW 2VGA A switchers requires you to check  
and/or set internal jumpers in the switcher.  
1.  
If applicable, disconnect all power to the switcher and any  
attached devices.

Power connection  
One power supply can power up to five daisy chained  
switchers. Additional switchers require one or more power  
supplies. See "Daisy chain configuration", later in this chapter.

Figure 2-12 — Power connector wiring  
The two power cord wires must be kept separate  
while the power supply is plugged in. Remove  
power before wiring.  
C
When you are connecting the power supply, voltage  
polarity is critical. Applying power with incorrect  
voltage polarity could damage the power supply  
and the VSW 2VGA A. Identify the power cord  
negative (ground) lead by the ridges on the side of  
the cord or a black heat shrink wrapping around it.  
C
Strip the jacket to expose 3/16 inch (5 mm) of the  
conductors. Do not tin the stripped power supply leads  
before installing the captive screw connector. Tinned wires  
are not as secure in the captive screw connectors and could  
be pulled out.  
N
To verify the polarity before connection, check the no load  
power supply output with a voltmeter.  
The maximum number of switchers that can be daisy  
chained is limited by several factors: power consumption,  
cable lengths, and the overall distortion of the video and  
audio signals.

Daisy chain configuration  
Multiple VSW 2VGA A switchers can be daisy chained together  
in a loop configuration or a tree comfiguration.  
Daisy chaining uses all pins and wires of a standard VGA  
cable. Not all VGA cables include all pins and wires.  
Ensure that the VGA cable that you use has all 15 pins  
connected.  
N
Loop configuration  
In a loop configuration, the output of each VSW 2VGA A is  
connected to Input 2 of the next VSW 2VGA A switcher. This  
repetition of one switcher's output to another switcher's input  
can be repeated for up to a maximum of 10 switchers in a daisy  
chain. The output of the first switcher is connected to a display.  
Source signals are connected to Input 1 of each VSW 2VGA A  
switcher either directly or through the VSW I AAP interface.  
Select the source by toggling to Input 1 on the VSW 2VGA  
A's front panel (or through contact closure on the rear panel)  
or by pressing the VSW I AAP's Show Me button for the  
corresponding switcher.  
Up to 10 switchers can be daisy chained in this  
configuration without any signal degradation.  
A power supply is required for every 5 switchers.

Tree configuration  
In a tree configuration, the output of each VSW 2VGA A  
switcher is connected to input 1 or input 2 of the next switcher.  
This repetition of one switcher's output to another switcher's  
input can be repeated for up to a maximum of 10 switchers in  
a daisy chain. The output of the last switcher is connected to a  
display.  
Source signals are connected to input 1 and input 2 of each VSW  
2VGA A switcher at the top of the tree through a VSW I AAP  
interface. Select the source by pressing the VSW I AAP's Show  
Me button for the corresponding switcher.  
Switchers can be daisy chained in this configuration up to  
ten levels deep without any signal degradation.  
A power supply is required for each switcher in the  
chain that has its output connected to input 1 of the next  
switcher.  
Sources can only be selected and connected to the  
switcher through the VSW I AAP interface.  
Each VSW I AAP must be configured for the tree  
configuration. See "Using the VSW I AAP" in this chapter  
for additional information.
