The present invention is directed to a video signal switching apparatus having editing function to select an arbitrary video signal from plural video signals or carry out synthesis thereof, which allows an operation unit to be of modular configuration every respective functions to electrically connect adjacent modules of panel modules (A toD) which serve as respective operation modules to each other by relay bases (), () to carry out transmission of signals between both modules, and to allow connection between the panel modules (A toD) and the relay bases (), () to be connector connection to thereby have ability to freely change layout of the panel modules (B toD) of division size in which 19 inches rack size is fundamental in accordance with fondness of operator.

Video signal switching apparatus and control method therefor

A switch mechanism of a detection sensor unmounted type has a configuration in which an attaching surface for a case body for containing a movable member moved in conjunction with a button operation and a mounting surface for a detection sensor operative to electrically detect a change in the position of the movable member attendant on the button operation are different, and a magnifying mechanism operative to magnifyingly transmit the change in the position of the movable member attendant on the button operation is mounted in the switch mechanism.
