Avenue 9430 Flexible Matrix Router
Installation, Configuration and Operations Guide
Quality Control and Signal Monitoring
The Flexible Matrix Router can be used for quality control and signal monitoring. In a smaller TV
station, for example, personnel in engineering can monitor a variety of channels internally. For a larger
facility, someone would be performing dedicated quality control monitoring.
For just a quick check, the small LCD display on the Router Control Panel may provide enough of an
image preview. Or the LCD can be used as a preview before bringing up the signal on a monitor. The
LCD display can also be used to show signal metadata while a monitor can be used to view the picture
in a larger format or perhaps as a quad split.
Monitors and Projectors for Venues
The Flexible Matrix Router brings many sophisticated options to non-broadcast environments, such
as corporate meeting rooms, event venues and churches. Because of the simple and accessible Router
user interface that runs on a web browser, iPad or Router Control Panel, all video professionals can
easily make use of the Router.
For example, a guest speaker who wants to access an assortment of media could have numerous
inputs available to them and a number of destinations, such as projector screens or monitors. Using an
iPad as a router controller, for instance, the guest speaker would only have to tap the iPad a couple of
times to change the source going to a monitor or screen projector. Sources could include still pictures
with background music, lyrics, and live feeds.
Another possible source for such environments is content from the Internet. When a computer with
Internet access is connected t, for example, you can upconvert
video from YouTube, Skype or any website to SD, HD or 3G SDI video and route that signal to any
Router destination. Mac and PC computers, iPhone and iPad can all be used as sources with BrightEye
Mitto. All Mitto units accept VGA, DVI and HDMI input signals from PC and Mac computers.
