This device is for those who have multiple devices to connect to the TV.  The old VCR, the DVD player, the Game Cube, the Xbox, the Playsation, the Xbox 360, the camcorder, and anything else that uses RCA, S-Video, or optical connectors.  Most of us have a few of these.  The VS502 allows you to connect all your devices (up to 5) to the TV at once and easily select between them.  No more plugging in and unpluging!  The fifth position even has plugs on the front of the unit so you don't have to pull everything out when a guest brings a device over to plug in temporarily. 

The VS-502 provides the necessary A/V inputs for adding components to your TV and home theater system. The Model VS-502 has five Audio/Video inputs including Component video, S-Video and digital audio plus dual outputs to feed your TV and either a receiver or VCR for recording. The VS-502 will help make the transition to HDTV easy!

Features:

Component + S-Video + Composite Video
• Video Up-Conversion - Only One Connection Needed
Putting the ability to switch three different video types in one unit would be great, but the ability to up convert your composite to s-video and composite and s-video to component video - WOW! The VS-502 has 5 composite video inputs, 3 s-video and 2 component inputs. You no longer need to select different inputs on your TV. Select the DVD player (component input), the satellite receiver (s-video) or the VCR (composite video) - each one is digitally converted to the best possible picture using an advanced digital comb filter and sent to the component video output to your TV.

Auto Input Sensing detects the current unit in use and automatically connects to that input, without you having to push any buttons! Here’s how:

• Turn on your VCR and the VS-502 selects the VCR input and feeds it to your TV.
• Turn on your DVD unit and it will automatically select the DVD input.
• Or select any input using the I/R Remote or the front panel buttons.

Volume Stabilization allows you to increase or decrease the dynamic range of the audio output.

• Increase the dynamic range (loud becomes louder, soft becomes softer).
• Decrease the dynamic range (loud becomes softer and soft becomes louder) to achieve a balanced sound.

Digital Audio Conversion can take the digital coaxial output from a DVD player and the digital optical output from a CD player and feed either a single optical or coaxial signal to your receiver.

All Metal Case for optimal shielding and solid functionality to stand up to years of service. The quality you expect from Sima.

Front Panel Connections with composite, s-video and L/R connections let you connect you camcorder quickly for recording without having to go to the back of your equipment.

RS-232 Port to connect to your home automation system to control the functions of the VS-502.
