[MONbk] Turns selected outputs in the ON or

OFF position

b = monitor number

k = ON/OFF control.

1 = monitor is in the ON position
0 = monitor is in the OFF position

Monitor number counts from left to
right. 1 - Judge, 2 - Plaintiff,
3 - Defendant, 4 - Witness, 5 - Jury,
and 6-Media.

An example of the command would be
[MON11] – turns Judge’s monitor in
the ON position. [MON60] – turn
Media output in the OFF position.

[RCLn]

Recall status memory location

n = 1, 2, 3, 4

[SAVn]

Save status memory location

n = 1, 2, 3, 4

Commands must be issued as shown, in ALL
CAPS and with brackets [ ] included in the
command string.

After processing a valid command, an [OK] string
will be returned, followed by a command echo.
For instance, a command of [INP1] will have [OK]
as a return string.

If a command is not recognized, an error string,
[ERR], will be returned.

When a key is pressed on the front panel, a
feedback string is transmitted. This is done to
inform a control system that the key has been
pressed. (This feature allows several switchers to
be grouped together to operate in tandem).

Question

Answer

1

How do I
know which
monitors are
ON if I am
not next to
the switcher?

We have an optional
accessory, the Monitor Status
Display (part # RC5206CV),
which is currently available for
the MX2426CV. The Monitor
Status Display provides a
manner of quickly determining
which displays in a system
are active, as the face of the
displays may not always be
visible.

2

How do I
shut down all
monitors at
once?

We also have currently
available, the Judge Override
Button (part# RC5205CV).
The Judge Override Button
allows the Judge to
immediately black out all of
the displays in the system to
avoid displaying inadmissible
evidence.

differences
between the
Plaintiff and
Defendant
inputs?

No, the MX2426CV offers two
of the same VGA inputs –
each with buffered local
monitor outputs.

switcher and a 1-in 6-out
distribution amplifier. All
inputs and all outputs are the
same.

Can I do
presets for
different
