Our MFP72 is a multi-format presentation switcher with in-built video scaling, audio
embedding, audio de-embedding and EDID management.
The MFP72 works in 2 modes, first as a 7 input dual output switcher, alternatively each
output can work independently with output 1 routing the 4x HDMI inputs only and Output
2 switching all 7 video/audio inputs.
With control of the switcher using the front-panel push buttons, IR remote control or RS232 interface it is an ideal solution for commercial installations.
Introduction
FEATURES:
• Switcher can function in 2 modes: Splitter mode - Both HDMI output 1 & 2 display the
same selected input.
Matrix Switcher mode - HDMI inputs are
independently switchable to HDMI outputs 1 & 2.
HDMI output 1 has access to HDMI inputs 1-4 (HDMI
signal pass-through including 4K resolution), whilst
output 2 has access to all HDMI and Analogue video
inputs with associated audio.
• Built-in video scaling, both up-scaling (maximum of 1080p)
and down-scaling capabilities (including 4K to lower
resolutions).
• Video inputs support all industry standard video
resolutions including VGA-WUXGA and 480i-4K.
• Scaled video output resolutions include 720p, 1080P,
1280x1024, 1024x768, 1360x768, 1440x900 & 1680x1050.
• Audio embedding - Independent Analogue L/R audio input
can be embedded to HDMI outputs + Analogue L/R audio
and Coaxial digital outputs concurrently (Feature available
on HDMI outputs 1 + 2 in Splitter mode and HDMI output 2
only in Matrix Switcher mode).
• HDMI audio breakout to Analogue L/R audio and Coaxial
digital outputs concurrently (linked to HDMI output 2 when
in Matrix Switcher mode).
• Volume control of HDMI, Analogue L/R audio and Coaxial
digital outputs.
• Supports all known HDMI audio formats on HDMI pass-
through, including Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos, Dolby
Digital Plus and DTS-HD Master Audio transmission.
• Front panel display for status feedback.
• Control via front panel, IR and RS-232.
• 3rd Party drivers available for all major home control
brands.
• Advanced EDID management.
• HDCP compliant.

EDID Control
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source.
This data is used by the source to find out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display
then from this information the source will determine what the best resolution is to output.
While the objective of EDID is to make connecting a digital display to a source a simple plug and play
procedure issues do arise when multiple displays or video matrix switching is introduced because of the
increased number of variables.
By pre-determining the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device you can
potentially work around compatibility issues associated with some display and source combinations.
1 Using EDID dip-switches on the rear panel of the unit. Please see table below for settings.
Note: You must power-cycle the switcher aer changes have been made in order for the EDID
settings to update.
2 Using Matrix Front Panel Buttons
a. Press MENU button
b. Panel will display ‘EDID settings’. Press SELECT button
c. Select the input you wish to fix the EDID on or select ‘All’. Use UP/DOWN buttons to toggle selection and
SELECT button to confirm
d. Select video resolution required (4K, 1080p, 3D etc). Use UP/DOWN buttons to toggle selection and
SELECT button to confirm
e. Select audio format required (2.0, 5.1, 7.1). Use UP/DOWN buttons to toggle selection and SELECT button
to confirm
