MATRIX SWITCHERS

4.1 BACK PANEL CONTROL

The MAX Series Matrix Switcher offers great flexibility in configuring the switcher. Each portion of the signal can be controlled independently or in any desired grouping. This allows use of the switcher with a variety of signal formats, and allows multiple independent switchers in one enclosure. For example, MXR0804-V3A0can be used as three 8x4 Composite Video Switchers or as one 8x4 Composite Video with one 8x4 S- Video Switcher.

4.2 H & V SYNC, COMPOSITE SYNC

The horizontal and vertical sync ports are designed to handle TTL and Analog Sync signals. The two sync ports will switch simultaneously when controlled separately from video ports. The independent control of video and sync portions of the signal allows use of the sync delay switching function. The delay in switching between video and sync insures noise- free (glitch-free) switching between any channels.

4.3 AUDIO PORTS (L&R)

The MAX Series Matrix Switcher is available with either mono or stereo balanced audio inputs and outputs for clear quality sound. The terminal block connectors used for Audio simplify the connection of the Audio signal.

4.4 RS-232 PORTS 1&2

The MAX Series Matrix Switcher is equipped with two RS-232 ports. This allows control of the switcher from two different locations. The RS- 232 ports can be used to control other devices, such as projectors, by the switcher. The front panel switches can be programmed to activate RS-232 commands to be sent to the projector.
