All models

Audio inputs —

MMX switchers accept up to four (MMX 42)

or six (MMX 62) stereo audio inputs. AV and SVA models

accept balanced or unbalanced stereo on 3.5 mm, 5-pole

captive screw terminals. RCA models accept unbalanced

stereo on RCA terminals.

Audio outputs —

MMX switchers output two stereo audio

outputs. AV and SVA models output balanced or

unbalanced stereo on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw

terminals. RCA models output unbalanced stereo on

RCA terminals.

Audio input gain and attenuation —

Users can set the level of

audio gain or attenuation (-18 dB to +24 dB) for each input

via the RS-232 link. Individual input audio levels can be

adjusted so there are no noticeable volume differences

between sources.

Front panel control —

The operator can select the inputs and

outputs, as well as audio follow or breakaway, using the

front panel buttons.

RS-232 control —

The operator can control the MMX 42/62

from a remote computer or other host using a link to

the RS-232 port. RS-232 control uses the Extron Simple

Instruction Set (SIS

) or the Windows

®

-based control

software.

Simple Instruction Set —

The Simple Instruction Set lets a host

computer control the MMX with simple commands.

Windows control software —

Windows-based Extron control

software provides a graphic way to set up and control

the MMX with an on-screen control panel. It allows

the operator to remotely select inputs, make audio

adjustments, and store settings for future use.

Mounting options —

The MMX 42 and MMX 62 are 1U high

and a half-rack width wide. They can be installed on

an optional 1U 3-inch rack shelf, 6-inch rack shelf, or a

standard Universal rack shelf, or under a desk or podium

using an optional under-desk mounting kit.

Auto-switching power supply —

An external power supply

with an IEC connector, which can be used internationally

with any power input from 110 VAC to 240 VAC at

50-60 Hz, and adapts automatically to the input type.
