The Multimedia Presentation System 100 (MPS-100) is a complete presentation
control and signal routing solution for boardrooms and classrooms. Integrating a
control system, multimedia switcher, audio controls and amplifier into a single two-
space rack mount package, the MPS-100 eliminates the need for separate
components without forfeiting performance or flexibility.

and SNMP support
The MPS-100 provides high-performance switching of two video and three RGB
computer sources to a single projector or plasma display. Composite, S-video,
component and RGBHV signals can be routed to the appropriate inputs on the
display device, with control of the display provided via Ethernet, RS-232 or IR.
Input signal sensing is provided on every video and RGB input to enable auto-
switching functionality and provide device power status information to the control
system. Selectable sync impedance on each RGB input helps accommodate cable
runs of varying lengths.

Multimedia Presentation System 100 Crestron MPS-100
Touchpanel Output
A second discrete output is provided on the MPS-100 to feed a preview signal to the
system touchpanel or other monitor. This output is controlled separately from the
main display output, allowing a different source to be viewed on the touchpanel. The
touchpanel connection is facilitated through a choice of QuickMedia (QM) or
Crestron Home (CH) CAT5 Balanced Video outputs, simplifying wiring to a wide
range of Crestron
HDTV plus audio, while the CH output is limited to standard video and HDTV only
(dependent upon the capabilities of the touchpanel). RGBHV inputs are only
displayed on the QM output.
QuickMedia
The QM touchpanel output can also be used to feed signals straight to the primary
display device, providing a very streamlined, low-cost, long-distance wiring solution.
Crestron's exclusive QuickMedia transport transmits high-resolution RGB, HD
video, and stereo program audio signals up to 450 feet over a single inexpensive
CAT5e type cable. Just one CresCAT-QM cable and a QM receiver are all that is
required for complete signal routing and device control, eliminating all the bulky,
expensive cabling that would otherwise be needed.

touchpanels. The QM output supports high-resolution RGB and
Audio Features
Five stereo audio inputs accept balanced or unbalanced line-level signals from
computers and other program audio sources. To accommodate a wide range of
signals, adjustable input compensation is employed to help maintain consistent
volume levels when switching between sources.
In addition to volume adjustment, the MPS-100's main program output (PROG
OUT) includes adjustable bass, treble, balance, and mute. Professional balanced line
level outputs are provided, with mute relays for "thump" protection upon power up.
A separate "fixed-level" LINE OUT with electronic mute provides a second set of
balanced outputs to feed a recording device, codec, or assistive listening system.
The QM touchpanel output is controlled separately from the other audio outputs,
allowing a different program source to be monitored on the touchpanel, or output to
other audio equipment by way of an appropriate QM receiver or other QuickMedia
device.
Built-in Amplifier
A 40-watt amplifier (20 watts x2) is built into the MPS-100, with three models
available offering the choice of 8-ohm stereo, 70V mono (MPS-100-70V), or 100V
mono (MPS-100-100V) outputs. The term “MPS-100” is used throughout this guide
to denote all models. For larger rooms requiring more power, the MPS-100 supports
plug-and-play compatibility with Crestron's QM-Series amplifiers.
Front Panel Control
Out of the box, the MPS-100 front panel supports easy pushbutton routing of input
sources to each of the outputs, and audio volume adjustment using the volume
control knob. Dedicated buttons and indicators are also provided for separate control
of system power and projector power. In addition, five preset buttons are included
for custom functions such as lowering a projection screen, closing blinds, or
selecting a lighting preset.
The front panel label strips are easily customized using Crestron Engraver software
or standard 3/8" tape labels, allowing for the clear designation of each input, output,
and preset button. When selected, these functions will also appear on the LCD
2 • Multimedia Presentation System 100: MPS-100 Operations Guide – DOC. 6527A
Crestron MPS-100 Multimedia Presentation System 100
display as generic names (Input 1, 2…), or as custom names (DVD, Podium PC,
Screen Up, etc.) which are easily entered using MediaManager Wizard software.
Easy setup of the MPS-100 is facilitated through the LCD display without
necessitating a computer. Together with four softkey buttons, four menu navigation
buttons and the volume knob, the LCD enables configuration of IP network, audio,
and other system settings. For security, the front panel controls can be password
protected or locked out.
2-Series Control System
Integrated into the MPS-100 is a Crestron 2-Series Ethernet control system complete
with Crestron e-Control 2 Web server and a host of RS-232, IR, digital input and
relay control ports for integration with third-party equipment. A basic AV
presentation room with projector, screen, keypad or small touchpanel, and wireless
remote control can easily be set up in minutes using the MediaManager Wizard
software. Or, a fully custom system can be programmed using SystemBuilder™ or
SIMPL™ Windows® software. Either way, the MPS-100 works with Crestron's
RoomView Help Desk software, the industry's most comprehensive facility-wide
asset management solution.
Room Control Options
Without requiring any programming, the MPS-100 can be controlled simply using
Crestron's APAD LCD Controller or a selection of keypads such as the C2N-DB12,
CNX-B12, AND C2N-FTB. With custom programming, Crestron's complete line of
Isys® touchpanels and MediaManager FlipTops are supported. Equipped with an
optional CNXRMIRD IR receiver, the MPS-100 allows any Crestron IR wireless
touchpanel or third-party universal remote to be used for a low-cost wireless control
solution. Or, adding an RF wireless gateway, infiNET™, or WiFi wireless LAN
connection enables use of a wide range of one-way and two-way RF wireless
handheld remotes and touchpanels.

Setup
Network Wiring
When wiring the network, consider the following:
• Use Crestron Certified Wire.
• Provide sufficient power to the system.
CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage
to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate
how much power is needed for the system
(http://www.crestron.com/calculators
• For larger networks, use a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to maintain
signal quality.
For more details, refer to “Check Network Wiring” on page 69.
).
Ethernet
The MPS-100 also uses high-speed Ethernet for communications between the control
system and a device, computer, digital media server and other IP-based devices.
For information on connecting Ethernet devices in a Crestron system, refer to the
latest version of the Crestron e-Control
Reference Guide (Doc. 6052).
CAT5 Wiring
Category 5 (CAT5) wiring is a twisted pair cable designed for Ethernet networks.
These networks operate at speeds of up to 100 Megabits per second (Mbps) using the
100BaseT standard. Crestron takes advantage of this specification for a variety of
video applications.
Crestron recommends using CresCAT, CresCAT-D or CresCAT-Q wiring solutions.
The following chart shows the maximum recommended cable lengths for various
signal formats.
Recommended Maximum Cable Lengths for Video via Crestron Certified Wire
FORMAT MAXIMUM DISTANCE
Composite 500 feet
S-Video 500 feet
Component 500 feet
For more information, refer to the latest version of the Crestron CAT5 Wiring
Reference Guide (Doc. 6137).
QuickMedia Wiring
The Crestron QuickMedia cable (sold under the name “CresCAT-QM”) contains one
CAT5E cable and one Cresnet cable in Siamese jackets. Installation of any QM
device is as simple as installing CresCAT-QM wires from the output of one device to
the input of another. Installations are flexible, affordable and fast. For more
Operations Guide – DOC. 6527A Multimedia Presentation System 100: MPS-100 • 19
Multimedia Presentation System 100 Crestron MPS-100
information, refer to the latest revision of the Crestron MediaManager Applications
Guide (Doc. 6244).
CresCAT-QM Cable
NOTE: Do not untwist the two wires in a single pair for more than 1/3-1/2”
(0.84-1.27 cm) when making a connection. The twists are critical to canceling out
interference between the wires.
The aggregate cable length of a signal path originating at the MPS-100 and
terminating at a QM receiver must not exceed 450 feet (137 meters). Video signals
may experience a loss of quality over very long lengths of cable. This phenomenon is
due to the added resistance and capacitance of longer cable lengths and is not
peculiar to either Crestron and/or QuickMedia systems. To ensure sufficient
bandwidth, the maximum aggregate cable length should not exceed 450 feet. The use
of lower-resolution signals may allow increased cable length but must be tested by
the installer with the sources to be used. The QM pin assignment is based on the
EIA/TIA 568B RJ-45 Jack standard.
NOTE: When transmitting S-video, luminance uses the green video pathway and
chrominance uses the red video pathway. When transmitting composite video, the
signal is carried on the blue video pathway.
NOTE: When using CresCAT-QM wiring, four additional wires are included for
making Cresnet connections.
When connecting multiple QM devices, the route between a QM origination point
(transmitter) and a QM endpoint (receiver) cannot have more than two midpoints
(e.g. QM-MD7x2 or other QM switchers). Refer to the following diagram when
configuring a QM network.
NOTE: Use CresCAT-QM to make QM connections. The cumulative skew over the
entire length must be less than 22 ns.
