MVX VGA A Matrix Switchers • Introduction

Upgradeable

firmware — The firmware that controls all switcher operation can be

upgraded in the field via either serial port, without taking the switcher out of

service. Firmware upgrades are available for download on the Extron Web

site, www.extron.com, and can be installed using the Windows-based control

program.

Labeling

The Extron button label software ships with every Extron matrix

switcher. You can create labels to place above the front panel input buttons

and below the output buttons, with names, alphanumeric characters, or color

bitmaps for easy and intuitive input and output selection. Alternatively,

labels can be made with any Brother

®

P-Touch

or comparable labeler.

Global memory presets —

32 global memory presets are a time-saving feature that

lets you set up and store input/output configurations in advance. You can

then recall those configurations, when needed, with a few simple steps on the

front panel. For the MVX 128 A, which has fewer input and output buttons,

20 global memory presets are available from the front panel; the remaining

presets are available via serial port control.

Rack mounting —

Rack mountable in any conventional 19" wide rack.

Three front panel security lockout modes (

Executive modes) —

If a matrix

switcher is installed in an open area, where operation by unauthorized

personnel may be a problem, either of two security lockout modes can be

implemented (the third mode is unlocked). When a front panel locked mode

is enabled, a special button combination or SIS command is required to

unlock the front panel controller and make the front panel fully operational.

Power —

The matrix switcher’s 100 VAC to 240 VAC, autoswitchable, internal

power supply provides worldwide power compatibility.
