Standard Features
The following features are standard in the Synergy 100 MD switcher:
Complete Control Panel
Regardless of what options are ordered, you will always receive a control panel with every button,
knob, display, and light installed. This means that your Synergy 100 MD and your control room will
look their very best - even if your budget is tight.
16 Multi-Definition Serial Digital Inputs
The Synergy 100 MD switcher comes standard with 16 serial digital inputs. Any input can be
assigned to any of the 10 control panel pushbuttons - simplifying installation. In the event that the
user would like the ability to access any of the 16 sources, one of the source buttons can be assigned as
a “shift” button which, when held, shifts that row of sources to a second bank. Any of the inputs can
be used for video or alpha channels.
16 Multi-Definition Timed Digital Outputs
In the Synergy 100 MD, every output is configurable. Output mapping will vary greatly from one
installation to another depending upon local requirements, and whether MultiDSK is installed and
enabled.
The following signals are available from the crosspoint matrix to the output cards in a standard
system.
Note
If the MultiDSK option is enabled, BNCs B01 to B06 are locked and
cannot be reconfigured. B07 defaults to Preview with Overlay.
