ABOUT YOUR MX2426CV SWITCHER 2
Designed for courtroom applications, the
MX2426CV Court PC View Trial Presentation
Switcher handles the specific switching,
distribution, and control needs of a typical trial
presentation system. The MX2426CV Switcher
offers two VGA (VGA/SVGA/XGA) inputs – each
with buffered local monitor outputs – and six VGA
main outputs to transmit signals to monitors and/or
projectors throughout a courtroom. The inputs are
typically used for displaying to each other’s team
as well as to the various other participants in a trial
including the Judge, the Witness, the Jury, and the
Media.
The front panel of the MX2426CV allows a user to
select which input will be displayed and which of
the outputs will be turned ON or OFF. There are
also four memory settings that can store
configurations and recall them at the touch of a
button. These features make the MX2426CV
Switcher ideal for a courtroom environment in
which evidence may need to be previewed before
being displayed to the jury or to a witness. The
MX2426CV may also be controlled through RS-
232, allowing it to be switched by a computer or
other third-party control system.
An optional accessory, the Judge Override Button
(part # RC5206CV), is currently usable with the
RC5251IR. The Judge Override Button allows the
Judge to immediately black-out all of the displays in
the system to avoid displaying inadmissible
evidence. The Monitor Status Display provides a
manner of quickly determining which displays in a
system are active, as the face of the displays may
not always be visible.
The MX2426CV handles the requirements of a
standard trial computer presentation system. For
advanced systems, using the MX2426CV Switcher
together with other Altinex products may expand its
capabilities.
The MX2426CV offers an extremely low-profile
design to reduce visual obstruction in the
courtroom when installed as a desktop unit. It may
also be rack-mounted using optional hardware.
