Introduction

About this Manual

This manual contains installation, configuration, and operating information for the complete Extron family of full-function, medium- and large-sized, analog matrix switchers, specifically:

• CrossPoint 450 Plus ultra-wideband RGBHV and audio matrix switchers

• MAV Plus broadcast quality HDTV/component video, S-video, and composite video and audio matrix switchers

About the Matrix Switchers

Matrix switchers distribute any input to any combination of outputs. The matrix switchers can route multiple input/output configurations simultaneously.

The matrix switchers are single box solutions to complex wideband (figure 1-1) or low resolution (figure 1-2) video and/or audio routing applications. Each input and output is individually isolated and buffered, and any input(s) can be switched to any one or all outputs with virtually no crosstalk or signal noise between channels.

Introduction, cont’d

All audio models, with the exception of the MAV Plus 128 AV RCA, input and output audio on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw terminals. The MAV Plus 128 AV RCA inputs and outputs audio on RCA connectors.

For all switchers with video and audio, the audio switching can either be linked with the video (audio follow) or independent of the video (audio breakaway). Adjustable input audio gain and attenuation compensates for level differences between audio inputs.

Each matrix switcher can be remotely controlled via its Ethernet port, its rear panel RS-232/RS-422 port, or its front panel Configuration (RS-232) port (matrix sizes up to 1616 only). The matrix switchers are programmed with Extron’s Simple Instruction Set™ (SIS™), a set of basic ASCII code commands that provide simple control through a control system or PC without programming long, obscure strings of code. SIS commands can be entered via either the Ethernet link or either serial link.

The Ethernet port can be connected through a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN).

The CrossPoint 450 Plus or MAV Plus switcher features e-mail notification of maintenance or other concerned personnel concerning the status of the power supplies and fans and the loss or resumption of sync on individual inputs.

The Ethernet port or either serial port can be connected to a control system, a PC, or Extron’s MKP 2000 or MKP 3000 remote control panel.

The matrix switchers are housed in rack-mountable, metal enclosures with 19" rack ears. The amount of vertical rack space required for each switcher is as follows:

In this manual, the term “video model” refers to any CrossPoint 450 Plus or MAV Plus switcher that switches video.

In this manual, the term “audio model” refers to any CrossPoint 450 Plus or MAV Plus switcher that switches audio.

MAV Plus HDA and HD switchers can also route low resolution RGsB and RsGsBs video signals. HDA and HD switchers can also route multiple composite video planes or S-video and composite video. If used in this way, the various video planes cannot be broken away; the input signals on the Y, R-Y, and B-Y input BNCs must be routed to the same outputs.

MAV Plus SVA and SV switchers can also be used to switch two planes of composite video. If used in this way, the two video planes cannot be broken away; the input signals on the luma and chroma input BNCs must be routed to the same outputs.

The MAV Plus Series have a bandwidth of 150 MHz (-3 dB).

Definitions

The following terms, which apply to Extron matrix switchers, are used throughout this manual:

 SVA  SV  AV  V  A

Tie — An input-to-output connection. Set of ties — An input tied to two or more outputs. (An output can never be tied

to more than one input.)

Configuration — One or more ties or one or more sets of ties. Current configuration — The configuration that is currently active in the

switcher (also called configuration 0)

Global memory preset — A configuration that has been stored. Up to 32 global

memory presets can be stored in memory. Preset locations are assigned to

the input buttons and (where necessary) output buttons. Up to 20 or 32 (depending on the number of input and output buttons) presets can be selected from the front panel for either saving or retrieving. When a preset is retrieved from memory, it becomes the current configuration. All models have 32 presets; on models with fewer than 32 input and output buttons, preset numbers that are too high to be available from the front panel are still accessible under serial port or Ethernet control.

Digital Sync Validation Processing (DSVP™) (CrossPoint 450 Plus switchers) —

I 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1

In critical environments or unmanned, remote locations, it may be vital to know that sources are active and switching. Extron’s DSVP confirms that input sources are active by scanning all sync inputs for active signals. DSVP provides instantaneous frequency feedback for composite sync or separate horizontal and vertical sync signals via the switcher’s serial ports or Ethernet port. The frequency information can be displayed on any control system or in a Windows

-based control program on a local-area network (LAN) or

Internet (IP) connection (figure 1-3).
