Re: Remote codes for Response TV4000 switcher



I have used a system for my audio/video which I have tried to maintain
through any audio/video source including video, dvd, stereo and cctv. It
may
be overkill to have a -ve for each, but as there is eight cable, I may as
well use them. Maybe having more earth lines will help reduce interference
(semi shielding)

I have used composite video and use the T568B convention and
wiring :

1    white/orange        video +ve
2    orange                 video -ve
3    white/green          left audio +ve
4    blue                    right audio -ve
5    white/blue           right audio +ve
6    green                  left audio -ve
7    white/brown        12v +ve switching
8    brown                12v -ve switching
