ABOUT YOUR SWITCHER 2
The MX2206RM is a 6-in 1-out solid rate RGBS
switcher with auto-switching and Sync Delay
Switching capabilities. It can be controlled using its
built-in front panel, through RS-232, or through the
use of contact closures. Contact closure control
requires the use of an optional adapter, part
#RC5204CC. Though designed primarily as an
RGBS swithcer, the MX2206RM can also pass
RGsB, S-Video (Y/C), and Composite Video through
the Red, Green, and Blue channels; however, the
auto-switch and sync delay capabilities are only
available for RGBS type signals. The output of the
MX2206RM is fully buffered.
The MX2206RM can be turned into an auto switcher
at the push of a button. In this mode, the
MX2206RM will select an active input by sensing
incoming sync on the composite sync channel. If
more than one source is active at one time, the
MX2206RM will make its selection based on input
number priority. For instance, if Input 4 and 6 are
active, Input 4 will be selected.
The MX2206RM also offers a special Sync Delay
feature to eliminate the typical “glitch” associated
with switching between high-resolution RGBS
signals. In Sync Delay mode, the switcher
disconnects the video portion of a signal (RGB) a
moment before the sync (S) disconnects and
connects it to the next channel a moment after the
sync is connected. By doing this, the glitch takes
place off screen. One of four Sync Delay times may
be selected: 0 delay, 0.5 second delay, 1.5 second
delay, and 2.0 second delay; pre-set while
powering-on the unit.
The MX2206RM offers a 9-pin control port, which
provides a means of interconnection for RS-232
sand Contact Closure control as well as other
special features. For instance, when multiple
MX2206RM units are looped together to create a
larger switcher, two pins on the 9-pin control ports
can be connected to make the switcher respond as
a single unit. Using a similar method, multiple
MX2206RM units can be made to operate in a
Master–Slave mode, with all units responding to a
single button selection
Using optional hardware, a single MX2206RM can
be rack-mounted side-by-side.
