Quick Start — Matrix 50 Series Switchers

Installation

Step 1

Mount the switcher in a rack.

Step 2

Turn off power to the input and output devices,
and remove the power cords from them.

Step 3

Cable the switcher for RGsB, RsGsBs, HDTV/
component video, S-video, or composite video
input and output (3).

Step 4

Cable audio models for stereo audio input. Each
input has a 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw
connector for balanced or unbalanced stereo
audio (4). High impedance is generally over
800 ohms.

Step 5

Cable audio models for stereo audio output.
Each output has a 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw
connector that outputs the selected unamplified,
line level audio. Connect an audio device, such
as an audio amplifier or powered speakers (5).

Step 6

If desired, connect a control system or computer
to the Remote RS-232/RS-422 port (6).

Step 7

If desired, attach an external sync timing device
to the external sync connectors (7).

Step 8

Plug the switcher and input and output devices
into a grounded AC source, and turn on the
input and output devices.

Definitions

Tie —

An input-to-output connection.

Set of ties —

An input tied to 2 or more outputs.

(An output can never be tied to multiple inputs.)

Configuration —

One or more ties or sets of ties.

Current configuration —

The currently active

configuration

(also called configuration 0).

Global preset —

A configuration that has been

stored. One preset can be assigned to each input
button. When a preset is retrieved from memory,
it becomes the current configuration.
