About the MatrixPRO 8x8 DVI Router
^Дзмн=нЬЙ=j~нкбсmol=UсU=asf=oзмнЙк
The MatrixPRO=8x8 DVI Router is a DVI crosspoint switch supporting resolutions ranging
from VGA (640x480) to UXGA (1600x1200x60) — including all HDTV resolutions. Any
input can be routed to any combination of the 8 outputs. The unit is housed in a 2RU
chassis and is configured as an 8x8 router.
There are three ways that you can control the router:
•Via front panel buttons and the integral menu display.
•Via the interactive Control GUI, which is accessed through the rear panel’s
Ethernet connector.
•Via the Encore Controller.
Note that user interface and system firmware upgrades can be installed in the field via the
system’s rear panel Ethernet and RS-232 connections.
cЙ~нмкЙл
The MatrixPRO=8x8 DVI Router includes the following features:
•Front panel or GUI control.
•One-to-one and one-to-many routing.
•Input grouping, enabling you to create sub-groups of inputs and outputs.
•Integrated test pattern generator.
•For the selected output, “RGB Mute” feature blanks the output video while leaving
sync signals running to the monitor.
•Input EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) control on a per-channel basis.
•Input cable equalization control on a per-channel basis.
•Supports resolutions from VGA (640x480) to UXGA (1600x1200x60), including all
HD resolutions (e.g., such as 1920x1080).
•Supports input cable lengths up to 20 meters, using high quality DVI cables.
Note
Signal quality cannot be guaranteed for cable lengths of 20
meters if lower quality DVI cables are used, or if cable
extenders are used.
•Vertical interval switching mode, with selectable input channel lock source.
•Local or external control via Ethernet or RS-232.
•Optional remote switching panels via Ethernet communications.

Safety Precautions
p~СЙну=mкЙЕ~мнбзел=
For all MatrixPRO 8x8 DVI Router installation procedures, observe the following important
safety and handling rules to avoid damage to yourself and the equipment:
•To protect users from electric shock, ensure that the power supplies for each unit
connect to earth via the ground wire provided in the AC power Cord.
•The AC Socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and be easily
accessible.
rей~ЕвбеЦ=~еЗ=fелйЙЕнбзе=
Before opening the box, inspect it for damage. If you find any damage, notify the shipping
carrier immediately for all claims adjustments. As you open the box, compare its contents
against the packing slip. If you find any shortages, contact your Barco sales
representative.
Once you have removed all the components from their packaging and checked that all the
listed components are present, visually inspect each unit to ensure there was no damage
during shipping. If there is damage, notify the shipping carrier immediately for all claims
adjustments.
páíÉ=mêÉé~ê~íáçå=
The environment in which you install your MatrixPRO 8x8 DVI Router(s) should be clean,
properly lit, free from static, and have adequate power, ventilation, and space for all
components.

MatrixPRO 8x8 DVI Routers are designed to be rack mounted. Please note the following
important points:
•When rack mounting the unit, remember that maximum ambient operating
temperature for the unit is 40 degrees C.
•Leave sufficient front and rear space to make sure that the airflow through the fan
and vent holes is not restricted.
•When installing equipment into a rack, distribute the units evenly to prevent
hazardous conditions that may be created by uneven weight distribution.
•Connect the unit only to a properl y rate d sup pl y c ircuit.
•Reliable Grounding (Earthing) of Rack-Mounted Equipment should be maintained.
•Rack mount the unit from the front rack ears using four rack screws (not supplied).
Rack threads may be metric or otherwise — depending upon the rack type.
•Install the lower of the two mounting holes first.

Power Installation
mçïÉê=fåëí~ää~íáçå
Use the following steps to install power to the MatrixPRO 8x8 DVI Router:
1. Connect an AC power cord to the AC Power Connector on the rear of the
MatrixPRO 8x8 DVI Router, and then to an AC outlet.
2. Connect AC Power cords (or AC adapters) to all peripheral equipment, such as
Ethernet Hubs and Encore Controllers. Please note:
mзпЙк=`зкЗLiбеЙ=sздн~ЦЙ=pЙдЙЕнбзе
The MatrixPRO 8x8 DVI Router performs line voltage selection automatically. No user
controls are required for line voltage selection. The AC power cords must be accessible so
that the cords can be removed during field servicing.
~Connect each unit only to a properly rated supply circuit.
~Reliable grounding (earthing) of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained.
