Answer

LED’s that represent connected video and audio will light.

The MX2436RM can be rack mounted by itself or with two units side by side. The width of the unit is 1-U high. ALTINEX offers rack mount ears for single unit mounting

(part # DA1292RM) and rack shelf for mounting two units (part # DA1298RM).

Control can be made through RS-232 or through the control panel.

It eliminates the glitch normally associated with switching between high- resolution RGB type sources. This is accomplishing by disconnecting the sync portion of a signal before the incoming video–making the glitch takes place off- screen. The Sync Delay feature is only designed to work with RGBS and RGBHV signal formats.

Yes, the MX2436RM uses a universal internal power supply, enabling it to be used throughout the world. Please make sure to use the proper adapter cable for the country in which it will be used. Adapter cables for several countries are available through ALTINEX.

Please make sure, that input signal formats are the same for the input (source) and the output (display).

Please make sure that the input signal amplitude levels are as follows:

1.RED, GREEN, and BLUE channels are less than 1.5V p-p.

2.SYNC is the TTL level.

3.Please use the appropriate input voltage 90 VAC to 260 VAC.

Please make sure that the proper quality of cables is used. We recommended ALTINEX- made cables for the best results.

If a problem arises after continuous usage at higher voltage, higher temperature, higher humidity, or at other extreme environmental conditions, please correct the problem.

If a problem exists with the MX2436RM Switcher please reset the unit by pressing the RESET mode button for more than 2 seconds.
