Setting Up the USP 507 to Work with a Matrix Switcher

The Sync to Matrix tool is a powerful software tool that can simplify the control system necessary when using an Extron matrix switcher and an USP 507.

The “Sync to Matrix” script can sense when a new tie that is made on the matrix is routed to the USP 507 and automatically recalls the input preset associated with the input on the matrix switcher. The input preset recalls all the settings for the input including the signal format, input sampling settings, and picture controls.
