MGP 462D
Dual Window Multi-Graphic Processor
with SDI Input
UniqUe FeatUres
• SDI input
coMMon FeatUres
• Combines video, HDTV, and high resolution RGB input sources into two windows
on a single display
• Inputs: Four configurable inputs on BNCs for RGBHV up to 1600x1200, component
video up to 1080p/60 HDTV, S-video, or composite video; one configurable input
on BNCs for component video, S-video, or composite video; one input on a 4-pin
mini-DIN and a BNC for S-video or composite video, respectively
• Output: Scaled picture-in-picture output on configurable 15-pin HD and
BNC connectors as RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, or component video
• RGB and HDTV component video output — Scaled picture-in-picture video is
simultaneously output through configurable BNC and 15-pin HD connectors as
RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, or component video.
• 48 selectable output rates from 640x480 to 1600x1200, including HDTV 1080p/60
• Picture-in-picture adjustments for window positioning, sizing, zoom, and priority;
background and window border color selection
• Graphic Still Store enables use of screen captures or uploaded graphics as
background images — A powerful feature that enables screen captures of the current
output, or uploaded BMP bitmap graphics, to be stored in memory. Images stored on
the MGP 462 can be downloaded to a PC as BMP files for archiving.
• Background images can be used to create themed multimedia presentations —
An image stored in the Graphic Still Store memory can be displayed as a background to
the two video or graphic windows, creating a themed multimedia presentation. The unit
can store up to four full screen high resolution images, offering an easy way to display
frequently used images such as a company logo.
• Window transition effects including dissolves, wipes, and cuts — Windows can
be transitioned into and out of the image using dissolves, wipes, and simple cuts,
resulting in smooth, professional presentations.
• Auto-Image ™ setup — The MGP 462 automatically optimizes the image to the scaled
output rate, eliminating complex set-up procedures.
• Input freeze control — Any input to a picture-in-picture window can be frozen via the
front panel, RS-232 or RS-422 control, or IP Link.
• Text overlay for window caption labeling — Each picture-in-picture window can be
labeled with a text label of up to 16 characters, generated through RS-232 or RS-422
control or IP Link. Custom options are available for text positioning, text color, character
size, translucent or color-selectable background, and text border.
• Picture controls for each window, including color, tint, brightness, contrast,
and detail
• 25 memory presets for PIP window configurations — A total of 25 default memory
presets are available, each with factory-loaded picture-in-picture window configurations.
These configurations can be customized to allow quick saving and recall of size,
positioning, and priority for both windows, and can also recall a previously stored
background image.
• 3:2 NTSC and 2:2 PAL pulldown detection — Advanced film mode processing
techniques help maximize image detail and sharpness for NTSC or PAL sources that
originated from film.
• Quad standard video decoding — The MGP 462 uses a digital, four-line adaptive
comb filter to decode NTSC 3.58, NTSC 4.43, PAL, and SECAM for integration into
systems worldwide.
• Internal test patterns for calibration and set-up — The MGP 462 offers 12 test
patterns, including a crop pattern, crosshatch, 16 bar grayscale, color bars, alternating
pixels, ramp, 4 x 4 crosshatch for use with video walls, three film aspect ratio patterns
- 1.78, 1.85, and 2.35, and crop patterns for setting up side-by-side windows. It also
features a blue-only mode for proper setup of video color and tint levels.
• IP Link ® Ethernet monitoring and control — An IP integration technology developed
by Extron. IP Link enables the MGP 462 to be controlled and proactively monitored over
a LAN, WAN, or the Internet.
• RS-232 and RS-422 serial control port — Using serial commands, the MGP 462
can be controlled and configured via the Extron Windows
® -based control program, or
integrated into third-party control systems. Extron products use the SIS ™ - Simple
Instruction Set command protocol, a set of basic ASCII code commands that allow
for quick and easy programming.
• Front panel security lockout — This feature locks out all front panel functions
except for input selection; all functions however, are available through RS-232 or
RS-422 control.
• Rack-mountable 1U, full rack width metal enclosure
• Internal international power supply — The 100-240VAC, 50/60 Hz, universal power
supply provides worldwide power compatibility.
