I always love the ideas I get here, so here's my latest challenge:
I'm working with a correctional institution that has 13 standard CATV televisions and one cable input. They want to be able to individually turn on and off the cable signal to each of these monitors, through ASCII commands, RS-232 or contact closure. I've found manual swtiches and IR switches, but I need something that I can control from an existing touch screen surface.
I already know that I can't do this but I don't know why; what if I converted F-Connector RF to BNC connector RF and ran it through a baseband video matrix?
