VS-34FD –Introduction

Introduction

Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world

of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the

video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis. In recent years, we

have redesigned and upgraded most of our line, making the best even better!

Getting Started

We recommend that you:

•Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging materials for

possible future shipment.

•Review the contents of this user manual.

Go to www.kramerav.com/downloads/VS-34FD to check for up-to-date user manuals,

application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).

Achieving Best Performance

•Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-performance,

high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor

matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables).

•Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils.

•Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence

signal quality.

•Position your Kramer VS-34FD away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust.

Safety Instructions

Caution:

•This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be connected to other

equipment that is installed inside a building.

•For products with relay terminals and GPI\O ports, please refer to the permitted rating

for an external connection, located next to the terminal or in the User Manual.

•There are no operator serviceable parts inside the unit.

Warning:

•Use only the power cord that is supplied with the unit.

•Disconnect the power and unplug the unit from the wall before installing.

•Do not open the unit. High voltages can cause electrical shock! Servicing by qualified

personnel only.

•To ensure continuous risk protection, replace fuses only according to the rating

specified on the product label which located on the bottom of the unit.

Overview

Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer VS-34FD Modular Matrix Switcher with I/O

Flexible Module Slots.

VS-34FD is a high performance, 34-port, 8K-ready, multi-format, modular matrix switcher for

AV signals, The modular chassis features 17 module card slots for installing a full range of

signal formats. All slots support both input and output module cards, enabling the matrix to be

populated as 2x32, 32x2 or any other configuration in between in increments of two inputs or

two outputs. The chassis includes a control module, a test module that can monitor and test

any input and output in the matrix, and an additional redundant power supply for optional

installation.

Benefits and Features

•High-Performance Modular Matrix Switcher –Professional, 8K-ready matrix for switching

multi-format AV signals. Features Kramer Equalization & re-Klocking™ Technology that

rebuilds the digital signal to travel longer distances.

For optimum range and performance, use recommended Kramer cables.

•Modular & Fully Flexible Platform –Select from a full array of popular and legacy formats

to populate the chassis, including HDMI™, HDBaseT, fiber optic, VGA, SDI, as well as

analog and digital audio. All slots support both input and output slots, enabling the matrix

to be populated as 2 x 32, 32 x 2 or any configuration in between. This matrix is

compatible with existing modular matrix modules.

•Flexible Infrastructure Conversion –Kramer Core™ technology enables copper, fiber or

twisted pair to be used at the same time, according to input/output module selection. The

matrix receives signals from compatible Kramer transmitters, automatically converts

between available infrastructure options and sends the signals to compatible Kramer

receivers.

•Quick and Efficient Management –Compatible with Kramer Network enterprise

management platform providing: Automatic discovery through the network, FW upgrade

management for matrix and cards, identification of card type and location, indication of

card status (module ID, actual firmware versions), matrix switching, specific card

features configuration (for example, volume levels on audio cards), store and recall of

predefined switching scenarios, integrated Maestro automation, and more.

Figure 3: Connecting to the VS-34FD Rear Panel

For optimum range and performance use the recommended Kramer cables available at

www.kramerav.com/product/VS-34FD.

Using third-party cables may cause damage!

The configuration of HDMI input/output cards shown in (Figure 3) is merely a sample

representation and different input / output cards may be mixed as required. For card

installation instructions, see Input / Output Card Hardware Installation Instructions

on page 31.

To connect the VS-34FD as illustrated in the example in Figure 3:

1. Insert the input and output cards into the card slots .

2. Connect 32 video sources (for example, a Blu-ray player and media player) and 2 video

acceptors, (for example, a video display and a projector), 2 video sources and 2 video

acceptors, or any configuration in between.

3. If required, connect a PC or remote controller to the RS-232 port (see Connecting to

VS-34FD via RS-232 on page 10) and/or the Ethernet port (see Connecting to VS-34FD

via Ethernet on page 10).

4. Connect the power cord.
