MLC 52 Series MediaLink Controller • Introduction
Front panel configuration port
— This serial port enables advanced configuration,
driver downloads, and firmware updates to be performed from the front
panel without the need to remove the controller from its mounting. The
optional Extron configuration cable (part #70-335-01) connects the MLC 52 to
the PC’s RS-232 port.
Three configuration methods
— The MLC 52 can be configured easily using the
following methods:
•
IR Learning
— Allows the MLC 52 to be set up directly from the
projector’s remote control without the need for software.
•
IR data transfer
— Duplicates complete configuration information from
one MLC 52 model to another without cables or software.
•
Windows-based configuration software
— Combined with one of the
many IR drivers available on the Extron Web site, Extron’s MLC 52
Control Program software provides fast and simple setup.
Inactivity timer for display shutoff
— Adjustable timer control provides automatic
shutdown to conserve energy, prevent plasma burn-in, and extend projector
lamp life.
Front panel security lockout
— Front panel lockout (executive mode) can be
implemented if the MLC 52 is installed in an unsecured environment where
easy access is not desirable.
High-impact mounting faceplates
— The standard MLC 52 models are provided
with two one-gang sized high-impact plastic faceplates (one black and one
white), that are durable enough for demanding environments.
The MLC 52 VC models include two two-gang sized high impact plastic
faceplates (one black and one white).
Flexible mounting options
— With a standard electrical box or one of the included
mounting brackets (“mud rings”), the MLC 52 can be mounted in a wide
variety of locations, including walls, lecterns, and tables.
Volume control faceplate
— The two-gang sized MLC 52 IR VC and the
MLC 52 RS VC each have a volume control knob in addition to the six control
buttons. To use this knob, you must connect the MLC 52 to an Extron
MPA Series Mini Power Amplifier (purchased separately), to which you also
connect the projector (see the application diagram on page 1-4). The volume
control knob adjusts the volume on the MPA. This option frees up the two
Volume Control buttons on the MLC to be used or reconfigured for other
projector functions.
Options and accessories
MPA series mini power amplifier
—
Connect an MPA 122 (part #60-668-01) or an
MPA 181T (part #60-747-01) to the volume control knob of the MLC 52 VC
models, and to the projector and speakers. This enables you to use the MLC
volume knob to control the volume of the speakers via the MPA.
Remote control
— The optional IR 452 Remote Control and optional IR signal
repeater provides infrared remote control of the MLC unit from up to 30'
away.
