Extron electronic Multi Video Processor MVP 104GX User Manual

Mvp 104gx, Multi video processor

DESCRIPTION

The Extron MVP 104GX Multi Video Processor allows the display of up to four
full motion video signals simultaneously on a single screen for more powerful
communications. Videoconferencing and distance learning applications benefit
from the MVP 104GX’s independent input sizing and advanced decoding using
a three-line adaptive comb filter. The MVP 104GX allows participants at the far
end of a videoconference to view multiple images on one screen. This capability
enables one or more participants at the near end to remain on screen for face-to-
face discussion while computer-video or other images are displayed. Each video
window can be independently scaled, positioned, or overlapped, so the user may
display different window configurations such as picture-in-picture (PIP) or quad
splitting. Horizontal and vertical sizing, positioning, and blanking controls are
provided for each source. The windows can be labeled using up to 16
alphanumeric characters for on-screen identification, and a background color
may be chosen to fill any unoccupied area. Genlock capability enables use in
systems that require synchronous timing to an external reference.

The MVP 104GX is compatible with NTSC or PAL signals and offers both
composite and S-video inputs. Images are routed from sources such as document
cameras, videoconference codecs, VCRs, or DVD players. For images with
audio, the MVP 104GX features a four input, one output stereo audio switcher
for routing audio associated with any video input.

Three multi-image outputs are available simultaneously as two composite video
outputs and one S-video output. The MVP 104GX features 20 factory and 24
user presets for convenient, one-touch selection of different windowing configu-
rations during videoconferencing presentations.

FEATURES

• Inputs — Accepts up to four NTSC or PAL video inputs: two inputs accept

composite video or S-video and two inputs accept composite video only.

• Multi image outputs — Three multi-image outputs provided simulta-

neously: two composite video outputs on BNC connectors and one S-video
output on a 4-pin mini DIN connector.

• Picture controls — Provides horizontal and vertical sizing, positioning, and

blanking controls for each window.

• Freeze control — Includes freeze function to freeze individual windows of

the multi-image output. Freezing all windows simultaneously is available
through RS-232.

• Factory and user memory presets — 20 factory and 24 user memory presets

are provided for one, two, three, or four window display outputs. Presets
include horizontal and vertical sizing, positioning, blanking, and priority
settings for all windows.

• Blanking control — Variable horizontal and vertical blanking for each

window allows users to add black bars at the top, bottom, left, and right
edges of the window to eliminate edge noise.

• Audio switching — Features a 4x1 stereo audio switcher with captive screw

connectors for selecting the desired audio of any video input.

• Front panel input and preset labels — For easy recognition of input and

preset buttons, the MVP 104GX allows the user to insert custom defined
labels printed using Extron Windows

-based software, which provides text

and/or graphics on customized labels.

• Genlock — All video outputs (NTSC and PAL) can be synchronized to an

outside reference signal, enabling clean and precise transitions between
sources.

• RS-232 remote control — Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS

™

) is provided

for RS-232 control via the Extron Windows

-based control program or third-

party control.

• Front panel security lockout — This feature locks out front panel

adjustments; all functions, however, remain active through RS-232 control.

• Rack-mountable — The MVP 104GX is housed in a 2U, full rack width

metal enclosure.

• Internal international power supply — 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz,

autoswitchable internal power supply provides worldwide power compatibility.
