8 port Touch Screen Monitor Switch the VIP-808-V-TS MegaTouch

Description:

The VIP-808-V-TS "MegaTouch"™ Touch Screen Monitor Switch allows one serial touch screen monitor to control up to 8 PCs. It is the ideal solution for touch technology switching applications where recovering valuable desk / rack space and reducing the clutter and expense of redundant monitors is desired. The VIP-808-V-TS utilizes Vetra's unique electronic switching circuitry which supports full touch technology functionality while providing crisp, clear video resolutions of up to 1600 by 1200 at 75Hz. Inexpensive touch screen switches may use mechanical switches to switch video signals and touch screen data, which over time and repeated usage can result in signal degradation or signal loss due to mechanical fatique or oxidation of contacts. The VIP-808-V-TS Touch Screen Monitor Switch is a fully integrated electronic switch and can be counted on to provide years of dependable, uninterrupted service.

The VIP-808-V-TS Touch Screen Monitor Switch comes in two standard configurations, is compact in design, easy to install and operate. For applications requiring rack mounting, an optional 2U height rack mount tray is available (see Accessories ). The VIP-808-V-TS is also available as a Dual-Head Touch Screen Monitor Switch (2 touch screens per PC) on a custom order basis.

All Vetra Touch Screen Monitor Switches are designed and manufactured in the USA ffor use around the world or enterprise mission-critical applications and are backed by a Limited 3-year Warranty.

OPERATION:

The active PC is selected by either front panel switches or remotely via RS-232 serial commands.

The VIP-808-V-TS-DE (Direct Entry model) has individual push button switches on the front panel for each selectable PC channel. Depressing a push button switches the connected touch screen monitor to the corresponding PC. The VIP-808-V-TS has a single push button (NEXT PC) which provides manual sequential switching through all selectable PC channels. Each time the "NEXT PC" button is depressed it switches the connected touch screen monitor to the next PC channel in the cycle. Both models can be switched, via RS-232 serial commands, using the remote control connector (DB9 male) located on the back panel of the unit (see connections and specifications below).

In all cases and on both models, when the unit is powered, the PWR ON indicator on the front panel illuminates to indicate the unit is powered. When a PC channel is selected, a MONITOR STATUS LED on the front panel illuminates to indicate the currently selected PC.
