Product outline
MSD-804FD (
hereafter referred to as “the MSD”) is a presentation switcher having a built-in scan converter.
For video output, 8 digital inputs are mounted, and HDMI and DVI signals are supported. Input video signal is
converted up to QWXGA or 1080p and HDMI/DVI signal can be output. HDBaseT output (Cat6 output) is
prepared as an optional extra. When the HDBaseT output is mounted, signal is output to HDMI and HDBaseT.
For audio input, 8 digital and 8 analog inputs are mounted, and selected audio signal is output to digital audio
(HDMI) and analog audio. Audio level of each input and each output can be set separately. The MSD also has
the Lip Sync function to correct gaps between video and audio signals.
The MSD has RS-232C (2 ports) and LAN as communication ports for external control, which enables remote
operation of settings. External devices that are connected to the MSD from RS-232C, LAN, or CEC can be
controlled through RS-232C, LAN, or HDBaseT output by registering control commands. For control
commands, the wait function is available to switch the contact after cooling-down time passes for power
control of projectors and other devices.
You can execute control commands using front panel keys, RS-232C, and LAN, and you can also execute
them when operating the input switching keys and turning on the MSD.
