Fr ont Panel Operation The MPS switcher can be connected to as many as nine input devices and four output displays plus an audio amplifier . It operates in one of four switching modes: single (the default), separate, single-combine, or separate-combine. The functions of the front panel contr ols ar e described in the following sections. Each input[...]

Input Selection — Single Switcher Mode In single switcher mode (default) the switcher emulates a single nine input switcher (9x1). In this mode, when an input is selected from any gr oup, the gr een LED indicator to the right of the button lights, and the selected input (video and audio) is routed to the output for that group. The selected audio [...]

Combine Mode Combine mode switches a selected HDMI/DVI input to the HDMI output, deactivating the DVI audio and video outputs. This enables the MPS 409 to function as one 5x1 HDMI/DVI and audio switcher , adding VGA/YUV and Video inputs. Combine mode can be used whether the switcher is in separate or single switch mode. All other inputs and outputs[...]

Pr ogram Audio The selected audio input is routed to the pr ogram audio output accor ding to the switcher mode. The input LED selected for program audio output blinks. Program Audio Selection Single switcher mode In single switcher mode, audio from the selected input is r outed to the pr ogram audio output. If combine mode is active, when a DVI inp[...]

Audio Gain and Attenuation Adjustments Individual audio inputs can be adjusted over a range of -18 dB to +24 dB using the program audio mute button and program audio volume contr ol knob. These adjustments can be used to normalize the input audio levels so that output volume is consistent for all inputs. The front panel input LEDs pr ovide a status[...]

Microphone Contr ols Mic on/off Mic volume and mute are contr olled fr om the front panel. The Mic mute button toggles the Mic input on or off. The corr esponding r ed LED illuminates when Mic volume has been shut off (muted). When the Mic input is enabled it is mixed with the program audio output. Mic volume is a stepped encoder , adjusted at a ra[...]

EDID Minder The DVI and VGA/YUV groups featur e EDID Minder , ensuring that each input source reads the EDID of the output display even when not selected. The result is the video sour ce powers up properly and r eliably outputs content when selected. The EDID r emains in the selected mode (automatic or user assigned) even after loss of power . The [...]

User assigned EDID Mode — Using SIS commands, an EDID file can be selected from a table of 19 EDID files. One additional EDID file location is reserved for user -loaded EDID files for the VGA and DVI groups. Once a user assigned EDID is chosen, the switcher stor es it at the inputs and no longer polls for the EDID of a connected display . The[...]
