Extron electronic MVX VGA A manual Operation, Front Panel Controls and Indicators, Definitions

PRELIMINARY

Operation

NOn some MVX switchers, the video selection button is labeled “Video” rather than “RGBHV”.

Front Panel Controls and Indicators

The front panel controls (figure 3-1) are grouped into two sets. The input and output buttons are grouped on the left side of the control panel. The control buttons and video/audio (I/O) selection buttons are grouped on the right side of the panel.

NThe MVX 128 A has a similar front panel configuration, but with fewer input buttons and output buttons.

Definitions

The following terms, which apply to all Extron matrix switchers, are used throughout this manual:

Tie — An input-to-output connection

Set of ties — An input tied to two or more outputs. (An output can never be tied to more than one input.)

Configuration — One or more ties or one or more sets of ties

Current configuration — The configuration that is currently active in the switcher (also called “configuration 0”)

Global memory preset — A configuration that has been stored. Up to 32 global memory presets can be stored in memory. Preset locations are assigned

to the input buttons and output buttons. When a preset is retrieved from memory, it becomes the current configuration.

The switchers have 32 presets. On the MVX 128 VGA A, up to 20 presets can be selected from the front panel for either saving or retrieving. Preset numbers larger than 20 are accessible via serial port control.
