Extron electronic MGP 464 HD-SDI manual Three BNCs, Virtual input connector configuration examples

Installation, cont’d

B	Virtual inputs (inputs 5 through 19) — Connect standard definition
	component video, S-video, and/or composite video sources to these BNC
	connectors. The 15 connectors for the virtual inputs are arranged in columns
	of three BNCs.
	In each column, you can connect inputs as follows (see the illustration below):

•Up to three composite video inputs (can be plugged into any connector[s] in the column)

•One S-video input and, optionally, one composite video input

The S-video must always be connected to the top two BNC connectors. The Y connector must be on top, the C connector in the middle). If desired, a composite video source can be connected to the bottom BNC connector.

•One interlaced component video source (must be connected to all three BNC connectors in the column).

Virtual input connector configuration examples

You can configure these virtual inputs for the desired signal types using the Windows-based control software (see the control software help file), SIS commands (see chapter 4, “Software Configuration and Control”), or the Web pages (see chapter 5, “HTML Configuration and Control”). They cannot be configured via the front panel.

NWhen you configure a virtual input as S-video (using two input connectors) or component video (using three input connectors), pressing any one of its equivalent buttons selects the input. For example, if you plug an S-video source into input connectors 8 and 9, pressing either the 8 or the 9 input button selects that input.

	RS-422 host device into this connector. Wire the connector
	as shown on the next page. See chapter 4, “Software
	Configuration and Control,” for more information on	9	6
