•Inactivity timer for display shutoff — Adjustable timer control provides automatic shutdown of the display device to conserve energy, prevent plasma burn-in, and extend projector lamp life.

•Front panel security lockout — Front panel lockout (executive mode) can be implemented where the MLC 52 is installed in an unsecured environment and universal access is not desirable.

•Flexible mounting options — With a standard electrical box or one of the included mounting brackets (“mud rings”), the MLC 52 can be mounted in a variety of locations, including walls and lecterns.

•Volume control (VC) faceplates — The two-gang sized VC models each have an integrated volume control knob in addition to the six control buttons. To use this knob, connect the MLC 52 to a power amplifier (purchased separately), such as the Extron MPA Series Mini Power Amplifier that is also connected to the projector or display (see the application diagrams on page 4). The volume control knob adjusts the volume on the amplifier.

This option frees the two volume control buttons on the MLC to be used or reconfigured for other display device functions. On these models, the two buttons normally used for volume control on the standard MLC 52 models can be programmed to control additional outputs or other projector or display functions.

•Section 508 Compliant — The MLC 52 meets or exceeds accessibility standards for Electronic Information Technology. For more information about the Extron Commitment to Accessibility, see the Accessibility at Extron web page at www.extron.com/company/article.aspx?id=accessibility.

•Power supply — A 12 V, 1 A, external universal ENERGY STAR® qualified power supply, part number 70-775-01, is included and provides worldwide compatibility, low power consumption, and reduced operating costs.

NOTE: The Extron PS 124 and other Extron power supplies can also be used with the MLC 52.

Options and Accessories

•MPA Series Mini Power Amplifier — Connect an MPA 152 (part number

60-844-01) to the volume control port of the MLC 52 VC models, and to your projector or display and speakers. This enables you to use the MLC volume knob to control the volume of the speakers via the MPA.

•Remote control — The optional IRL 20 signal repeater provides infrared remote control of the MLC unit from up to 30 feet (9.1 m) away. The signal repeater works with any Extron hand-held IR remote control.

MLC 52 Configuration Software

The included MLC 52/DVCM 50 Configuration Program is used to configure the MLC buttons and ports via an RS-232 connection. This software, provided on a DVD that is delivered with the product, enables you to set functions for the front panel buttons and to configure the MLC ports in order to control devices via the MLC. The software works in combination with the IR or RS-232 drivers, also provided with the MLC on DVD or at www.extron.com (see Installing the Software from the DVD on page 48 to access this program).
