Precautions Important Safety Warnings [Power] Operate unit only on the specified supply voltage. Caution Disconnect power cord by connector only. Do not pull on cable portion.
Stop
Do not place or drop heavy or sharp-edged objects on power cord. A damaged cord can cause fire or electrical shock hazards. Regularly check power cord for excessive wear or damage to avoid possible fire / electrical hazards.
[Grounding] Ensure unit is properly grounded at all times to prevent electrical shock hazard. Caution
Hazard
Do not ground the unit to gas lines, units, or fixtures of an explosive or dangerous nature.
Ensure power cord is firmly plugged into AC outlet. Caution
[Operation]
Hazard
Do not operate unit in hazardous or potentially explosive atmospheres. Doing so could result in fire, explosion, or other dangerous results. Do not allow liquids, metal pieces, or other foreign materials to enter the unit. Doing so could result in fire, other hazards, or unit malfunction.
Hazard If foreign material does enter the unit, turn power off and disconnect power cord immediately. Remove material and contact authorized service representative if damage has occurred.
[Transportation]
Caution
Handle with care to avoid shocks in transit. Shocks may cause malfunction. When you need to transport the unit, use the original packing materials or alternate adequate packing.
[Circuitry Access] Do not remove covers, panels, casing, or access circuitry with power applied to the unit! Turn power off and disconnect power cord prior to removal. Internal servicing / adjustment of unit should only be performed by qualified personnel.
Stop
Do not touch any parts / circuitry with a high heat factor. Capacitors can retain enough electric charge to cause mild to serious shock, even after power is disconnected. Capacitors associated with the power supply are especially hazardous. Avoid contact with any capacitors.
Hazard
Unit should not be operated or stored with cover, panels, and / or casing removed. Operating unit with circuitry exposed could result in electric shock / fire hazards or unit malfunction.
[Potential Hazards]
Caution

IMPORTANT Internal parameter adjustment is required to activate interlock switching with TG-1616. For the details, see section 6-2-3. "Linkage Function Setting with TG-1616 – ADR 00010111 –". When changing the channels, the title superimpose is turned off, and then the superimpose turns on again after the title is changed. It takes approximately 3 seconds at the most for TG-1616 to process crosspoint switching. There must be intervals more than 1 second between each operation of automatic switching such as sequence switching or each crosspoint switching. For performing the multiple switching, keep the interval of more than 5 seconds.

7-4. VSF/TG Linkage Normally, when a title is inserted to a camera video, title generators (TG-1616) corresponding to the number of cameras are required. However, the VSF/TG linkage function can be used to reduce the number of TG-1616 units. The TG-1616 and VSF-600 can be connected with a dedicated serial bus to enable title page switching by the TG-1616 in coordination with switching of crosspoints by the routing switcher. The three block diagrams and a table below are showing differences when the VSF/TG linkage function is used and not used. (Select the VSF/TG linkage function based on the system.) 1) System without VSF/TG linkage (96 cameras x 32 monitors) 2) VSF/TG linkage system (96 cameras x 32 monitors) 3) Comparison table of 1) and 2) 4) VSF/TG linkage system (maximum inputs and outputs) 1) System without VSF/TG linkage (96 cameras×32 monitors, when using VSF-9632) 1

The TG-1616 is placed after the routing switcher. If the number of outputs is 16, the system can be configured with one TG-1616 unit. The TG-1616 is linked to crosspoint switching of the routing switcher. (The TG-1616 superimposes the title of the camera selected by the routing switcher.)

Notes on VSF/TG linkage operation To enable the linkage function with the TG-1616, internal parameter settings need to be changed. For details, see section 6-2-3. "Linkage Function Setting with TG-1616.” When changing the channels, the title superimpose is turned off, and then the superimpose turns on again after the title is changed. (It takes about 0.3 seconds to change the title for one channel, and it can take up to about 3 seconds to change the title for all channels at once.) The routing switcher is not suitable for applications where crosspoints are continually switched. If using automatic switching functions such as the sequence switching function of the routing switcher or if executing crosspoint switching commands continuously, be sure to set intervals of at least 1 second between switching. Also, set an interval of at least 5 seconds when switching multiple crosspoints at the same time. If the crosspoint switching interval is shorter than the title changing process time for the TG-1616, problems can occur such as slow menu operation/display in the TG-1616 or title display that is too slow to be in sync with the video.

The maximum total cable length from the VSF-128128 to the final stage of TG-1616 is 100 m.
Usually, the VSF/TG linkage function is used for the system in which there are more inputs than outputs. If the numbers of inputs and outputs are the same, connecting the TG-1616 before or after the VSF does not make any difference to the number of TG-1616, but in a system like that shown in the figure above, the number of outputs can be gradually expanded from 16 and support up to 128 outputs is possible.

9. Control by RS Commands Besides the “VS commands” for controlling normal crosspoint switching over a serial interface as described in section 8-7, “Control Commands,” a function is provided that enables replies to “RS commands”, which have a different format and enable various controls. RS commands enable usage of the functions shown in the table below. For the RS-232C/RS-422 specifications, settings, and connections, the settings are identical to those in section 8, “Serial Control.” The same commands are used if performing control with the RS-422.

9-1. RS Command Format This section presents the format of RS commands. A crosspoint switching command is shown in the example below. When input is made to a serial control device using the commands in the box, the VSF-600 returns a reply of either completed normally or abnormally.
Command
CD Dest (3) Src (4) 1 CR+LF
Response
OK CR+LF
（Ends normally）
ER CR+LF
（Ends abnormally）
CD Dest(3) Src(4) 1 CR+LF This is the command issued from a serial command device. It is sent as ASCII code. The line break character CR (0D)+LF (0A) should be always added at the end of the command. Dest(3) Src(4) This indicates that this parameter is sent using the number of bytes in parentheses. Dest is used to set the channel number of the destination channel (output channel). To select channel 1, “001” is set so that it becomes 3 bytes. Src is used to set the channel number of the source channel (input channel). To select channel 1, “0001” is set so that it becomes 4 bytes. The maximum value of the channel numbers for the destination channel and source channel is 128. 1 This indicates the level. IMPORTANT In the VSF-600, the level is fixed at 1. Be sure to always enter 1. After the command is sent, a reply message is received. If this command was executed normally, a reply of “OK” is sent, and if the command was not executed properly due to some cause, a reply of “ER” is sent. The line break characters CR (0D)+LF (0A) are also added at the end of these reply messages.
46
A command character string that is actually sent from a serial control device in ASCII code is shown below. In this example, when Dest (destination channel) is set to 1 and Scr (source channel) is set to 1, the command below is sent.

9-2. Salvo Function The salvo function is used to switch multiple registered crosspoints simultaneously. In this function, the simultaneous switching settings are saved in memory, then, when the switching operation is executed, these settings are recalled and switch the multiple crosspoints simultaneously. This eliminates the need to record the same crosspoints repeatedly. Simultaneous switching using the salvo function is executed by the following procedure. (1) Clear the salvo preset table. (2) Record the crosspoint in the salvo preset table. Repeat this step as many times as necessary. (3) After the crosspoints are recorded, register the settings in the preset table to a salvo registration number. (4) Recall the salvo registration number to switch the multiple crosspoints simultaneously
Clear the salvo preset table
Record the crosspoint for simultaneous switchover in the preset table.

Parameters: Item Salvo No.
Parameter 01 to 16
Description Salvo registration number
Operation is performed as follows when a destination lock (see “9-8. Destination Lock”) or crosspoint inhibit (see “9-7. Crosspoint Inhibit”) is set for the destination channel registered for salvo switching. If the serial control device (PC) itself that is currently being used is set to LOCK OTHER, the crosspoint switching is executed. A reply message of completed normally is returned. If LOCK OTHER is set by a remote control unit other than the serial control device that is currently being used, switching for the destination channels set to LOCK OTHER in the recalled salvo switching (simultaneous switching) operation will be separated and not be performed. A reply message of completed normally is returned. If LOCK ALL is set, switching for the destination channels set to LOCK ALL in the recalled salvo switching (simultaneous switching) operation will be separated and not be performed. A reply message of completed normally is returned. If crosspoint inhibit is set, switching for destination channels set to crosspoint inhibit in the recalled salvo switching (simultaneous switching) operation will be separated and not be performed. A reply message of completed normally is returned.
51
9-2-6. Checking the Salvo Registered Settings This checks the salvo registered crosspoints. Based on the set flag in the reply that is returned, it is possible to check if crosspoints are registered to a specific salvo registration number. A set flag of “0” is returned if a salvo is not registered or the salvo registration is empty.

9-3. Sequence Switching The sequence switching is used to perform switching output of multiple preselected source channels at a fixed, preselected switching time to a single preselected destination channel. For example, when destination channel 4, switching time 2.5 seconds, and source channels 2, 8, 2, 15, and 17 are registered in the sequence switching function, sending the sequence start command will output the source channels by switching 2→8→2→15→17→2→ and so on at 2.5-second intervals to destination channel 4. The sequence switching operation is stopped by the sequence stop command. After the sequence switching operation is stopped, the source channel that was output immediately before the stop command was received is then output to the preselected destination channel.
9-3-1. Sequence Switching Registration The target destination, switching time, and selected source channels are registered to a sequence registration number. The maximum sequence switching count that can be registered is 16. The switching time can be set in 0.5-second units up to 127.5 seconds. The number of available source channels for sequences is a maximum of 128 channels including duplication of the same source channels. The registered sequence switching operation is started when the sequence switching start command “AQG” is received.

Description Sequence number
IMPORTANT When a crosspoint switching command is sent for a destination channel where sequence switching is already in progress, the sequence operation is stopped, and the crosspoint switching command is executed. When a sequence switching registration command (see 6.3.1) is sent for a destination channel where sequence switching is already in progress, the sequence switching operation is stopped. If the correspondence between the logical channels and physical channels of the destination and source are changed by the logical channel assignment function (See section 6-9.) while sequence switching is already in progress, the modified results are used in the sequence switching operation. To perform sequence switching with a minimum of image distortion, the input video must be synchronized with the external reference signal input to REF IN, and the same DC level must be used. Otherwise, image distortion may occur during switching, while switching may still be possible.

9-5. Chop Switching The chop switching is used to perform switching output of two preselected source channels back and force at a fixed, preselected switching time to a single preselected destination channel. This feature is designed to compare two different video images. For this reason, the selectable switching time is shorter than the sequence switching.
9-5-1. Chop Switching Registration The target destination, switching time, and two selected source channels are registered to a chop registration number. The maximum chop switching count that can be registered is 16. The switching time can be set in 1-frame units up to 255 frames (8.5 seconds). The registered chop switching operation is started when the chop switching start command is received.

Description Chop registration number
IMPORTANT When a crosspoint switching command is sent for a destination channel where chop switching is already in progress, the chop operation is stopped, and the crosspoint switching command is executed. When a chop switching registration command (See section 6-5-1.) is sent for a destination channel where chop switching is already in progress, the chop switching operation is stopped. If the correspondence between the logical channels and physical channels of the destination and source are changed by the logical channel assignment function (See section 6-9.) while chop switching is already in progress, the modified results are used in the chop switching operation. To perform chop switching with a minimum of image distortion, the input video must be synchronized with the external reference signal input to REF IN, and the same DC level must be used. Otherwise, image distortion may occur during switching, while switching may still be possible.

9-9. Logical Channel Assignment When crosspoint switching or other control operations are performed by a remote control unit or serial control device (such as a computer) for a routing switcher, logical channel numbers are used for exchanging commands in the operations for destination and source channels. In the factory setting, the actual physical channel numbers and logical channel numbers of the routing switcher destination and source have a simple one-to-one correspondence as shown below. Physical channel 1 2 3 4 5 • •
