The VK68A includes an 8 channel camera switcher (VS10A), a plug-in power supply (PR30A), and an 8 button RF remote control
(KR28A). You can connect up to eight X10 Anaconda cameras to the VS10A using the 15 ft., or 60 ft. cables that come with the
Anacondas. You can then turn any of these cameras on by remote control from up to 100 ft. away. When you turn any camera on, the
others in the group turn off. You can control any group of cameras between 1 and 8, e.g. 1 thru 4, 1 thru 6, etc. You can scan through your
group of cameras (at a rate of about once every 5 seconds) by pressing scan forward or backward on the VS10A or on the KR28A remote.
You stop the scan by pressing any number on the remote control (which displays that numbered camera). You can also connect the

Operation
Press any button (1-8) on the KR28A remote control (included)
to turn on the camera attached to that channel on the VS10A.
When you turn on any camera the others in the group turn off.
Connect as many Anacondas as you want (up to 8) to the
sockets on the back of the VS10A. If you have less than 8
cameras, start with number one on the right (looking at the
back of the unit) and work sequentially to the left. Follow the
setup instructions that come with the Anacondas to set each
one up.
Scanning your cameras
Momentarily press the VS10A’s Scan Forward button (Up
arrow) to scan cameras 1 to 8, or Scan Backward button (down
arrow) to scan cameras 8 to 1. Each time you press the button,
the VS10A steps to the next camera in the group and
illuminates its corresponding channel LED.
Auto-Scan
Press and hold the VS10A’s Scan Forward button (Up arrow) or
Scan Backward button (down arrow), hold the button pressed
for a couple of seconds, or press the Scan Forward or Scan
Backward button on the KR28A remote. The LED for the last
camera in the group blinks twice then stays on. Release the
Scan button. The VS10A then automatically scans around the
cameras in your group (backwards, or forward) at the rate of
about once every 5 seconds. To stop the scan, press either the
Scan Forward or Scan Backward button on the VS10A, or press
any number button on the remote. The camera who’s number
you pressed will be displayed on your TV.
Connect to PC’s serial port
for computer control.
Connect the Video Out jack on
the VS10A to the Video IN jack
on your TV.
Changing the group of cameras you want to scan:
In the default state the VS10A scans around all 8 channels. If
you have installed less than 8 cameras you can set it to scan
around a lower number:
If your TV does not have a Video IN jack you might be able to
connect the VS10A to the Video IN jack on your VCR, or you
might need to purchase an external TV modulator.
Plug the PR30A power
supply into the jack on the
side of the VS10A, plug
the power supply into any
convenient AC outlet, and
turn the switch on the
VS10A ON.
1. Press the VS10A’s Scan Forward AND Scan Backward
buttons at the same time. Hold the buttons until the LED for
channel number 1 starts to flash slowly.
2. On the KR28A remote, press the button for the max. number
of cameras you have connected to the VS10A. E.G., if you
connected cameras to jacks 1 thru 4, press button 4 on the
remote. The LED for channel number 1 now flashes faster
and then goes out. Now when you press any of the scan
buttons, the VS10A scans thru cameras 1 thru 4 (instead of
1 thru 8).
Lift the antenna on the VS10A to
the upright position.
