Important Remark; Precautions; Introduction; Installation - Ecler SVA1-5c Notice D'emploi

1. IMPORTANT REMARK

Congratulations! You are the owner of a carefully designed and manufactured equipment.
We thank you for having purchased a SVA1-5c, DVA1-5c or DVA2-10c Selector or distributor. It is
VERY IMPORTANT that you read this manual before connecting the device in order to obtain its
maximum performance.
We recommend our authorised Technical Services whenever any maintenance task
should be needed so that optimum operation shall be achieved.

1.1. Precautions

The DVA1-5c and DVA2-10c must be earthed through its mains cable.
Do not expose the unit to rain or water splashes, and do not place liquid containers or
incandescent objects like candles on top of the unit.
Should any connection / disconnection task be done, always disconnect the unit from the mains
supply.
There are no user serviceable parts inside the unit.

2. INTRODUCTION

The SVA1-5c reversible audio/video selector from ECLER features either one input and
five outputs or five inputs and one output. It consists of a passive device extremely useful in any
setup which requires selecting one of various video sources and/or various monitors, video
projectors, etc.
The DVA1-5c and DVA2-10c distribution amplifiers are a versatile accessory for every
setup which requires distribution of audio/video signals (VCR, cameras, etc.) to various monitors or
video projectors, ensuring minimal loss, maximal audio/video quality and a guaranteed reliability.
The DVA1-5c features one video input, one stereo audio input, five video outputs and five
stereo audio outputs, with general adjustments for the video, chrominance and audio signal.
The DVA2-10c is in fact two DVA1-5c units stacked into one chassis and can be operated
as two totally independent DVA1-5c or as a single one input - 10 outputs distribution amplifier.

3. INSTALLATION

3.1. Placement and mounting

The SVA1-5c and DVA1-5c are minirack-sized units. However, with the PUM3 accessory,
two minirack modules (9,5'' x 44 mm) can be assembled together into one rack unit (19''). With the
PPM1 and PUM3 accessories you can rack-mount one minirack-sized module.
The DVA2-10c distribution amplifier has a standard rack size (19'', 1U). All these devices
can therefore be mounted into standard rack cases.
As a general rule of thumb, all connections should be held as short as possible using high
quality cables and connectors in order to avoid noise and signal attenuation. Always try to place the
device as far away as possible from noise sources (dimmers, engines, etc...) and mains wires. For
the very same reason, and under any circumstance, should you ever remove the unit's metallic
cover.
