The DA1917SX is a 2-In 1-Out VGA through QXGA auto switcher with a built-in 1-In 2-Out distribution amplifier. The DA1917SX may also be controlled manually through the use of a contact closure. In its normal mode, the DA1917SX automatically switches to the active input source by sensing an incoming signal. If two input signals are active simultaneously, it will default to Input 2. The DA1917SX offers two buffered outputs, both of which display the selected input signal. If only one output is used, it is not necessary to terminate the unused output.
The DA1917SX can be controlled manually by connecting a latching contact closure control to its 2.5-mm mini-coaxial remote control jack. The DA1917SX comes with a small switch with a six foot (part # RC5203CC) which performs this function, or the contact closure may be made from a control system. When the contact closure control is connected to the DA1917SX, an "open" position will select Input 1 and a "closed" position will select Input 2.
The DA1917SX is perfect for applications that require one local monitor to share two computers (as shown in the diagram below). It is also ideal for use in applications that make use of wall or floor plates for auto-switching. The DA1917SX may be mounted to furniture or other suitable surfaces using optional hardware.
