Safety Instructions
Safety Instructions
Overview
Please read these instructions before using your Procon switcher. Failure to comply with these
instructions could result in fire, electrical shock, personal injury, death, or damage to the equipment.
Power Source
Use only a three-wire grounding type source. The power source should not exceed 264VAC. Do not
remove under any circumstances the ground wire.
Power Cord
Use only the cord shipped with the unit. Do not use the cord if it has become damaged or frayed. Contact
your Procon dealer or call Procon if you need to replace the power cord.
Grounding
The interface is grounded through the grounding conductor on the power cord. To avoid electric shock
plug the power cord into a properly wired receptacle. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding-type
plug.
Fuse
For protection against the risk of fire use only a fuse of the same rating and type.
Liquid Spills
Do not set drinks on top of the unit or immerse the unit in liquid.
Do Not Disassemble
The switcher contains no user serviceable parts. All servicing must be performed by a qualified service
technician.

Typical Installation For Use With a Projector
Connect the RGB, Video and Audio sources to the Input sockets on the rear panel of the unit.
ꢀ
ꢀ
The RGB/Video inputs are 75 ohm terminated and the audio inputs 47Kohm terminated.
The RGB/Video and audio outputs are fully 75 ohm and 600 ohm driven respectively for
connection to long cable runs.
ꢀ
It is imperative that the input sources are fully compatible with the display and sound devices.
Video Connections
There are 4 PC inputs and 6 video inputs.
Two outputs are available for PC and two outputs for Composite Video and S-video. The Video Inputs
maybe either Composite Video, S-Video, or a combination of both.
Since the switcher now auto-senses between the Composite and S-Video inputs, the
dip switches have no effect unless you are using the Device Serial Output. If you are
using the Device Serial Output,dip switches 1 to 6 must be set to match the incoming
source type on their corresponding inputs.
The projector or display device should be switched to match the Source type
outputted.
If you are using the serial output, it is also necessary to configure the unit with Solecis
DCS. Consult the Solecis DCS Quick Start Guide for more information.
Audio Connections
One unbalanced output is available on Phono (RCA) connectors and one balanced output is available on
phoenix connectors.
Power Up
Connect a Mains Source (110 to 240V) to the 2010 switcher.
ꢀ
ꢀ
The Blank Button will illuminate.
If any Source is connected to Inputs 1 of the PC and Video groups then Sync only will be
present on the output.

Operation
Operation
Front Panel
Source Selection
To select a Source press the Button corresponding to the numbered Input.
The button will illuminate. A PC input will be routed to the PC output sockets.
A selected Video Input will also be routed to its respective Composite or S-Video output.
If a PC input is selected then the last selected video input will remain on its respective output and vice
versa.
The Audio Channel will switch to the highlighted Input.
(Unless the Unit is controlled by RS232, then the Audio can be switched independently. The front panel
will always display the status of the PC / Video Inputs.)
Blank / Mute
To Blank and Mute the outputs press Blank button. The Button will illuminate and the Input buttons will
extinguish.
ꢀ
ꢀ
The Sync only of the last selected PC and Video Inputs will be present on the outputs.
The Blank and Mute will disable as soon as a source is selected.
Volume
This is a master volume control and will adjust the level of all inputs.
ꢀ
ꢀ
To increase volume press the arrow Up button.
To decrease volume press the arrow Down button.
The newly set volume level for the selected audio input will be permanently stored even after switch off.
Attenuation
The initial attenuation level of all the Inputs is set to 0dB.
If some sources are louder than others then they can be adjusted to match.
To change the attenuation level of an input, press and hold the input select button. Use the arrow up/
down buttons to set the level.
When set release the buttons and the level will be stored
Display Device Serial Output
This can be used for direct control of a projector or any device with RS232 control.
The 2011 can be programmed to transmit Power On/Off and RGB, Composite and S-vide mode
commands to a display device using Procon Device manager software (See programming section)
The commands are transmitted from the Display Serial terminal.
5
AVS-SL-PR-0401-0601
Operation
Input mode only
When the 2011 is powered up a mode command will be sent to a display on the first press of any Input
select button. The command will either be RGB, Composite or S-Video depending on the button pressed.
This will ensure a display device is set to the correct mode to display the input selected. Each time a
different source type is selected then a mode command will be sent to the display device.
For this function to work the Display must be ON
Power On/Off mode
When the 2011 is powered a Power On command will be sent to a display on the first press of any input
button. The button will flash for a programmed set time and the 2011 will disable.
This allows a projector to warm up. At the end of the warm up period an RGB, Composite or S-Video
command is sent to the display, the 2011 enables and the system is ready for use.
To turn the controlled projector off, press and hold the "Blank" button for 5 seconds.
