1.1. HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
This manual is organised into 5 chapters: Overview, Installation, Operation, Technical Description, Serial
Protocol, Output Configurations, and System Timing. This chapter contains a quick summary of the router
features and a glossary to define concepts and terms used throughout the remainder of the manual.
Chapter 2 gives a detailed description of the rear panel connectors, and how the router should be
connected into your system.
Chapter 3 gives a detailed description of the operation of the front panel controls, starting with an overview
of the pushbuttons and front panel indicators. The operation of the router using the optional remote
control panel is identical to the front panel.
Chapter 4 gives an overview of how to update the firmware in the unit and other technical issues.
Chapter 5 is a programmer’s reference to the serial control protocol.
Chapter 6 provides a pictorial representation of video and audio output configurations for each version of
the router.
Chapter 7 provides a few video timing examples to aid the system designer in properly timing the router.
