6. SOLUTIONS PROVIDED WITH THE VS-5X4
 Video recording and playback frequently involving the use of several devices such as Video
Cassette Recorders, Video Disc Players, Cameras, Video monitors, Video processors, Special
Effects Generators, Live or Satellite Feeds or any combination of the above.
 Hooking up a complex setup of several devices may result in a maze of wires, which is difficult
to manage, cumbersome and possibly dangerous.
 The VS-5x4 Vertical Interval Switcher offers an innovative solution to many of the problems
arising from switching, editing and signal distribution.
 The
VS-5x4 Vertical Interval Switcher
is simple-to-operate having five Composite video and
five stereo audio inputs; and four Composite video and four stereo audio outputs. This allows
you to simultaneously connect five sources and four acceptors efficiently and safely.
7. APPLICATIONS OF THE VS-5X4
a. A fully buffered and amplified matrix switching system.
b. A four output Composite video and stereo-audio distribution amplifier with selectable
inputs.
c. A production, routing and program/preview switcher.
In the VS-5x4, video signals are switched by means of digital control pulses during the Vertical
Interval.
