OPERATING THE MC-5

PRESET

This menu enables you to set and to store four different set-ups of output
configurations. Its operation is very easy.

Choose one of the four presets (SET1 – 4) by pressing the SELECT button
repeatedly. When the desired preset is selected, define your output
configuration by setting the corresponding LEDs in the ROUTING MATRIX
OUTPUT menu (see below). After routing the inputs to the outputs, the
whole output configuration will be stored under the selected preset
number.

For programming of an other preset, choose a new preset number and
repeat the previously mentioned steps.

For changes within a preset configuration, select the preset which needs
to be modified and change the input routing in the ROUTING MATRIX
OUTPUT menu accordingly. This changes will be automatically stored under
the selected preset number.

The factory default is set to SET 1.

ROUTING MATRIX OUTPUT

This menu enables you to route the four inputs individually to the 12
outputs. Thus, SD and HD video signals, regardless of their frame rates and
formats, can be routed and distributed simultaneously. For distributing
HD test pattern signals, you have to choose for every component signal a
separate input. Please make sure that the outputs are adjusted accordingly
to transmit the component signals correctly!

In this process, the input signals are distributed without any alteration or
amplification.

One input signal can be routed to one output, to multiple outputs, but also
to all 12 outputs. If more than one input signal is supplied, the number of
assigned outputs to the corresponding inputs can be different.

For assigning an input to an output, select the corresponding output menu
by pressing the MENU button repeatedly. Than press the SELECT button
to route one of the inputs IN1 – 4 to the selected output. The LED of the
currently active input of the selected output is blinking. If you press the
SELECT button furthermore and all four LEDs are blinking simultaneously,
the output can be switched off. After this adjustment is stored, no LED
lights under the corresponding output number.

The factory default is set that input IN 1 distributes to all 12 outputs.

The MC-5 does not allow to
combine two input signals and to
distribute these to one output. If

one input is assigned to one or multiple
outputs, these outputs can be not used for
other input signals at the same time!

The MC-5 does not supply any form
of redundancy or failure safety
for the output signals! When e.g.,

the video signals which are supplied at the
inputs fail, the output signals are also lost
in the same moment!
