2 Product Outline
The MSD is a Presentation Switcher having a built-in scan converter with 9-inputs and 1 to 4-outputs.
For video input, the MSD has five digital and four analog inputs, and the series can input the following signals:
HDMI, DVI, composite video, S-video, analog RGB, analog YPbPr signals. The MSD converts input video
signals up to QWXGA or 1080p and outputs them as HDMI or DVI signals.
For audio input, the series has five digital and nine analog inputs, and the series can output selected audio
signals as digital audio (HDMI signals) and analog audio. You can set audio level of each input and output
separately. The MSD also has the Lip Sync function to correct gaps between video and audio signals.
The MSD series includes RS-232C (2 ports), LAN, and parallel contacts as communication ports for external
control, which enables you to set or edit settings remotely. You can also control external devices connected to
the MSD through RS-232C, LAN, Tally output and CEC by registering external control commands. For
external control commands, the wait function is available to switch the contact after cooling-down time of
power control of projectors and other devices passes.
You can execute external control commands using front panel keys, RS-232C, LAN, and parallel connectors,
and you can also execute them when operating the input switching keys and turning on the MSD.
