Control Connections  
The Fade-to-Black feature allows for switching between input/output combinations without the  
usual visual signal noise, glitches, and sync roll that traditionally accompany switching between  
video signals. The feature momentarily forces the video image to black as the desired source input  
is selected for the chosen output. This feature is applied automatically and the fade time  
interval is programmable via RS-232.  
Decide how the KD-MSW4x2 will be controlled  
If using an IR (Infrared) Extender, the wired IR, or an external Control System (via the RS-232 port  
on the KD-MSW4x2), make the appropriate connections  
Power  
Use ONLY the external power supply provided with the KD-MSW4x2 unit. Use of any other  
Video and Audio Mute  
power supply VOIDS the Key DigitalWarranty and may  
potentially damage the unit and any associated equipment.  
Video and Audio Mute enables the user to mute the audio and video signal (the display goes  
to black) at the chosen output, using the RS-232 [see the RS-232 Command List] or IR remote  
control. Using the IR remote control for Video and Audio Muting:  
Connect the external power supply provided with the  
KD-MSW4x2 to the jack on the rear panel of the unit.  
Activate Video & Audio Mute:  
Deactivate Video & Audio Mute:  
R1 output (1~2) up arrow  
Connect the power supply to an appropriate source of power,  
such as from a wall outlet.  
R1 output (1~2) down arrow  
Operation  
Follow all manufacturer instructions for the safe and proper operation of the source and display  
products that have been connected to the KD-MSW4x2.  
Using one of the convenient control options for the KD-MSW4x2, separately select source input  
1, 2, 3, or 4 for output display 1, and source input 1, 2, 3, or 4 for output display 2.  
Use the IR remote control with an extensive command and control capability.  
See the description for the IR remote control provided later in this Operating Manual.  
It is also possible under RS-232 control to allow any one of the four inputs to be switched and  
distributed to both outputs [see the RS-232 Command List].  
Input 1, 2, 3, and 4 LED indicators  
Use this front-panel pushbutton to  
select any of the up to four source  
input devices to drive the display and  
audio system wired to Output 1.  
Press the button and cycle through  
Input 1, 2, 3, and 4.  
Repeat for Output 2 using the  
appropriate Output 2 pushbutton and  
LEDs for monitoring the input selection.  
Note: Since the KD-MSW4x2 Matrix Switcher does NOT perform video processing,  
the output video format is the same as the input video format. This means that the  
video resolution is not changed and also that form of video is input to the unit, for  
example Component Video, the output will be in exactly the same format.

KD-MSW4x2 Operating Instructions  
KD-MSW4x2 Operating Instructions  
Introduction  
The KD-MSW4x2 uses RCA jacks for video and audio inputs and outputs, and supports both  
component video (YPbPr) and RGBHV video formats. Along with the video, it concurrently switches  
and distributes digital PCM, and analog stereo audio for YPbPr operation only.  
Thank you for purchasing the KD-MSW4x2 by Key Digital, a state-of-the-art analog HDTV Fat Boy  
Series 4-Input to 2-Output matrix switcher and distribution amplifier.  
Each of its two distinct outputs can be used to drive two separate displays (and audio / surround  
sound systems), even the most exotic high-end HDTV projectors on the market. One of up to four  
source input devices (like DVD players, Set Top Boxes, etc.) can be independently and separately  
selected to drive each display. Switch like a pro in the Studio, with the all-new “Fade-to-Black”  
and “Video Muting” features that eliminate video “glitches” on the display when switching different  
inputs. If desired, the unit functions as a distribution amplifier, simultaneously routing any single  
input to both outputs. Also, the product is expandable.  
The KD-MSW4x2 is simple to operate and control via front panel pushbuttons and LEDs, IR  
(Infrared) remote control, IR Extender, wired IR, and is compatible via RS-232 with all control  
systems.  
The KD-MSW4x2 is perfectly suited for studio, home theater, custom  
installation, retail, and in fact any and all analog HD and SD applications.  
With analog video bandwidths up to 300 MHz, it handles all HD and  
SD resolutions (50 and 60 Hz) including 1080p/60, with no degradation  
in video or audio signal quality. Since the KD-MSW4x2 performs no  
video or audio processing, the video and audio signals remain pure and  
untouched, and hence the quality of the output signals is the same as  
the quality of the input signals.  
The KD-MSW4x2 boasts a 300 MHz analog video bandwidth due in part to the following custom  
and proprietary Key Digitaltechnologies engineered into the product to ensure the highest  
standard of picture quality:  
Key Digital Exclusive Technologies  
Typical source input devices that can be matrix switched with the KD-MSW4x2 include:  
DVD players  
Cable TV, satellite, and terrestrial Set Top Boxes (STBs)  
Digital Video Recorders (DVRs)  
D-VHS, S-VHS and VHS VCRs  
Electronic game boxes  
Personal Computers (PCs)

Decide on a safe location to place or mount the KD-MSW4x2. Provide enough space for sufficient  
airflow and ventilation, especially if the unit is left “On” most of the time.  
Do not connect the external supply (provided) to the back  
of the KD-MSW4x2 unit until ALL of your video and audio  
connections are completed.  
Test for proper operation of the unit, interconnections, and cables before final  
installation of cables behind walls or ceilings. The output stage of the KD-MSW4x2  
is capable of driving high-quality, equal-length video cables up to 300’ or more.  
Connect up to four video and audio sources to the RCA jack Input Ports of the KD-MSW4x2.

Connecting A/V Equipment  
Connecting A/V equipment to the KD-MSW4x2 HDTV Matrix Switcher is straightforward and easily  
accomplished via the ergonomic rear panel connector array. Because not all consumer equipment  
marketed today uses RCA connector interfaces, it may be necessary to employ adapter plugs  
and/or cable assemblies to interface these various devices to the unit.  
Connect up to two displays to the RCA jack Output Ports of the KD-MSW4x2. The audio  
outputs from the product can be connected to the audio inputs of the display, or separate  
surround sound or other audio systems.

KD-MSW4x2 Operating Instructions  
KD-MSW4x2 Operating Instructions  
RGBHV  
Control Connections  
If the set-top receiver of choice employs RGBHV outputs, a 15-pin “breakout” adapter cable may  
needed to implement the interface. In this instance connect the red, green and blue connectors  
from this adapter cable to the red, green and blue connectors, again on any one of the four Input  
Ports of the KD-MSW4x2 unit. Connect the black and yellow wires from the breakout cable to the  
white (H) and red (V) connectors of the same Input Port of the KD-MSW4x2 unit.  
Decide how the KD-MSW4x2 will be controlled. If using an IR (Infrared) Extender, the wired IR,  
or an external Control System (via the RS-232 port on the KD-MSW4x2), make the appropriate  
connections now.  
Connect the RGBHV video signals from Output Ports 1 or 2 on the KD-MSW4x2 unit to the  
corresponding RGBHV video jacks on the desired display. A second 15-pin breakout cable may be  
required for certain sets.  
It is not possible to use analog audio switching when in RGB video applications because the H&V  
sync signals required for the RGB format occupy the port connectors typically used for the audio  
signals. Digital PCM may be used for this application, as described above.  
This same connection procedure described above applies to any other peripheral device  
that one may wish to interface with a desired display medium, including DVD players and  
game consoles.  
Lower-quality S-Video (two-wire) or Composite Video (CVBS) Source Equipment  
S-Video  
For S-Video applications, a “breakout” adapter cable is required to connect a source device to the  
KD-MSW4x2 unit. This cable is equipped with an S-Video (DIN) plug at one end and a pair of RCA  
plugs at the other connected to white and yellow conductors. Connect the white (Y) conductor to  
the green RCA connector of the selected Input Port, and connect the yellow (C) conductor to either  
the blue or red RCA connector in the same input field. Connect the white and red analog stereo  
audio connectors of the source device to the white and red connectors in the same Input Port of  
the KD-MSW4x2 unit.  
RS-232  
The KD-MSW4x2 HDTV Matrix Switcher is compatible with all Control Systems. Use the D-sub  
9-pin connecter on the rear panel and an appropriate cable to attach the unit to an external Control  
System. An RS-232 cable is not supplied* with the base KD-MSW4x2 unit. Carefully insert your  
own RS-232 cable (9-pin) to the back of the unit, and to an appropriate PC or Control System.  
Connect the green RCA connector from Output Ports 1 or 2 on the KD-MSW4x2 unit to the white  
(Y) conductor of a second S-video adapter cable. Connect the blue or red connector to the yellow  
(C) conductor. Plug the other end of the adapter cable into the TV or monitor's S-video input.  
Connect the white and red analog stereo audio cable connectors to the white and red connectors  
of the same Output Port on the KD-MSW4x2 unit. Connect the other end of the audio cable pair to  
the white and red analog audio input of the display.  
Composite Video (CVBS) Connection  
Connect the Composite Video connector (yellow) from a VCR or other source device to the green  
RCA connector in the selected Input Port on the KD-MSW4x2 unit. Connect another composite  
video cable from the green RCA connector from Output Ports 1 or 2 on the KD-MSW4x2 unit to the  
TV or video monitor. Follow the instructions above for connecting analog audio.  
If applicable, Key Digital‚ Fat Boy KD-MSW4x2 expansion units come preconfigured from the factory with their own  
RS-232 cable

KD-MSW4x2 Operating Instructions  
Applying Power  
IR Extender  
CAUTION: No other power supply adapter can be used  
with the KD-MSW4x2 unit. Use only the Power Supply  
provided in the carton! Using a power supply other than  
the one provided by Key Digital“ with the unit VOIDS THE  
WARRANTY, may cause damage to the unit and associated  
equipment, and is a potential safety hazard.  
A rear-panel IR sensor is provided, ideal to use with an IR Extender,  
like one provided by Xantech. The rear panel IR sensor also supports  
the IR remote control provided with the KD-MSW4x2 unit.  
Mount the IR extender on the rear panel of the KD-MSW4x2 unit, or connect the wired serial connector cable to the  
wired IR connector jack on the rear panel.  
Now that the A/V input and output interfaces are completed, it is recommended to double check all  
cables and connections before applying power.  
Always test all connections and final operation first, before sealing cables behind  
walls or completing difficult wire routings.  
Wired IR  
A rear-panel wired IR serial connector is provided for use with an IR Extender, like one provided by  
Xantech. Connect the wired IR Extender to the 3.5 mm jack on the rear panel of the KD-MSW4x2  
unit.  
To test connections before routing or hiding any wires behind walls or ceilings, use a reliable source  
(like a DVD player) and display that is known to be functioning properly.  
Carefully insert the Power Supply adapter plug here  
Once all the connections have been verified, plug the connector of the Power Supply into the  
power supply input jack on the rear panel of the KD-MSW4x2 unit.  
Next, plug the external Power Supply provided with the unit into an appropriate wall outlet or source  
of AC power. The external power supply is rated: + 6V DC @ 5 Amps,110-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz. For  
added safety and protection it is recommended to use a good quality surge protector.  
The KD-MSW4x2 unit has no physical On/Off switch, except on  
the provided IR remote control.

KD-MSW4x2 Operating Instructions  
KD-MSW4x2 Operating Instructions  
Fat Boy Expansion Control  
Operation  
Fat Boy expansions have multiple KD-MSW4x2 units pre-wired from the factory. Each unit in the  
expansion is individually addressable.  
Matrix Switching  
Configuring a particular unit with the desired input and output combination requires the following  
successive steps:  
With all of the video and audio sources connected to the four Input Ports, and the displays and  
audio systems connected to the two Output Ports of the KD-MSW4x2 unit, the matrix switcher is  
ready to operate. The routing of video and audio signals from the available inputs to either output is  
easily implemented using the front panel pushbuttons, and visually verifiable via the LED indicator  
arrays.  
1. Addressing desired Unit:  
Depress button 1 through 8 to select the desired unit  
2. Addressing desired Output:  
Depress button ‘output 1’ (to select Output 1), or ‘output 2’ (to select Output 2)  
The front panel of the unit provides the user with a visual representation of the two outputs.  
Each of the two output sections consists of a large pushbutton switch and an array of four LED  
indicators. Each of these appropriately numbered LED indicators corresponds to one of the four  
available inputs.  
3. Addressing desired Input:  
Depress numerical digits 1 to 4  
For either display that is connected to the output of the KD-MSW4x2 unit, the desired source input  
is switched by depressing the appropriate pushbutton until the LED indicator corresponding to the  
chosen input is lit. The video and audio sources connected to that input are automatically switched  
to the selected output. The unit also acts as a distribution amplifier, simultaneously routing a single  
input to both outputs, by simply repeating the same procedure for both outputs.  
Additional Product Features  
Fade-to-Black  
The Fade-to-Black feature allows for switching between input/output combinations without the  
usual visual signal noise, glitches, and sync roll that traditionally accompany switching between  
video signals. The feature momentarily forces the video image to black as the desired source  
input is selected for the chosen output. This feature is applied automatically and the fade time  
interval is programmable via RS-232 [see the RS-232 Command List].  
Input 1, 2, 3, and 4 LED indicators  
Use this front-panel pushbutton to  
select any of the up to four source  
input devices to drive the display and  
audio system wired to Output 1.  
Press the button and cycle through  
Input 1, 2, 3, and 4.  
Video Mute  
Video Mute enables the user to mute the video signal (the display goes to black) at the chosen  
output. Activated via IR remote control or RS-232 [see the IR remote control section of this  
manual, and the RS-232 Command List for explicit instructions].  
Distribution Amplifier  
Repeat for Output 2 using the  
appropriate Output 2 pushbutton and  
LEDs for monitoring the input selection.  
It is also possible under RS-232 control to allow any one of the four inputs to be switched and  
distributed to both outputs.  
Power On/Off  
Summary: Control and Monitoring  
Turn the KD-MSW4x2 On and Off. In the power-off mode, all front LEDs are Off and the video  
outputs are muted.
