Installation Overview
The MGP Processor can be connected to as many as 19 input devices simultaneously, and
up to two output devices. Follow these steps to install the MGP Pro:
1.
Install the four rubber feet on the bottom of the MGP Pro, or mount the unit using the
supplied rack mounting brackets (see
on page 104).
2.
Turn off power to the input and output devices and remove the power cords from them.
3.
Connect the input sources to the BNC, HDMI, or 3G/HD-SDI input connectors (see
A
on page 7 or
Virtual inputs (inputs 5 through 19)
page 7).
4.
For the MGP Pro DI models, connect up to four input sources to the HDMI and the
BNC connectors as desired. For the MGP 462 Pro 3G-SDI, connect up to four input
sources to the two 3G/HD-SDI connectors, the two HDMI connectors, and the four
BNC connectors, in any desired combination. (Sources can be connected to HDMI,
3G/HD-SDI, and RGB connectors at the same time. The MGP processes the signal for
which the input is configured.)
5.
Attach an output device to the RGBHV/YUV BNC output connector set, the HDMI
output connector, or both.
6.
If the MGP Pro will be connected to a computer or to a host controller for remote
operation, connect an RS-232 cable from the host to the Remote RS-232/422
connector on the rear panel (see
C
on page 8) or to the front
panel Config port (see
J
under “Front Panel Features”
on page 14)
.
7.
If desired, connect an active LAN Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port on the MGP Pro rear
panel to establish a link to the network (see
D
8.
Plug the MGP Pro, input devices, and output devices into grounded AC sources, and
power on all devices.
