CONTROL AND SUPPORT
HDMI MATRIX SWITCHING MADE EASY
Users can locally switch between sources via the easy-to-operate front panel, or they can do so remotely
through a RS-232, IR, or TCP/IP connection. The MXCORE-HD Series can be controlled by SmartAVI’s very
own Windows®-based manager software, a cornerstone of all SmartAVI products.
FLEXIBLE CONTROL
MXCORE-HD Series by SmartAVI can be controlled from the easily accessible LCD front panel and keypad
that allows users to determine which inputs are connected to which outputs.
RS232: Controlling the MXCORE-HD Series Matrix Switchers is effortless with SmartAVI’s Windows®-
based SmartControl software. Users can assign a unique name to each port on the Matrix along with a
display for specific project requirements.
While all the functions of the Matrix are available locally on the front panel, SmartControl allows
customization of all the Matrix’s functions.
IR: Many system professionals prefer the IR control interface because it offers greater flexibility to
manage the MXCORE-HD switches at a distance. In some cases, the displays will not be visible from
the Matrix, which would then make it necessary to control the Matrix with Infrared command signals.
TCP/IP: If users need to make changes instantly but can’t be there in person, the Net-IP-Pro control
module is the solution. SmartAVI’s optional Net-IP-Pro module is effective for real-time remote control
management. Simply connect the Net-IP-Pro module to the MXCORE-HD Matrix while connected to
the Internet and the Matrix can be controlled from anywhere in the world.
EDID EMULATION
Each input incorporates our unique “SmartEDID” programmable technology capable of learning video
resolutions, audio settings and 3D data. The EDID memory of each display is stored in a single flash memory,
giving users freedom to choose any EDID and emulation of any display.
MXCore-HD Series enables HDMI and DVI sources to continuously read the EDID of a monitor with full
emulation at any given time.
The EDID management allows learning and saving of up to 100 displays, including audio. With the support of
HDMI 1.3 HDCP, MXCore-HD Series can learn EDID from any display device provided.
