CONTROLLER/AMPLIFIER FEATURES
•
Zones:
Eight, expandable to sixteen-zones with the addition of a second MX88 and additional keypads
•
Sources:
Eight audio (MX88a or MX88ai) or eight audio/video (MX88vi). Any zone can select any source.
Any source can be selected in multiple zones. Several modes of control:
-
Whole-house mode
– selection and control of any source from any zone.
-
Priority mode
– any zone can select and monitor a source, but only the first zone to select that source
can control it.
-
Link mode
– multiple zones can be linked together to act as a single zone for source selection and
control. Each zone maintains independent volume and mute controls.
-
Monitor lockout
– prevents certain zones from selecting certain sources.
•
Local Zone Audio Inputs:
Eight zone-specific audio inputs. When activated, overrides source-one audio
inputs allowing each zone to have its own dedicated Audio Source by selecting source-one.
•
IR Learning:
IR commands can be learned from external hand-held remotes through the
Controller/Amplifier‟s built-in IR learning eye or they can be generated from the MX88‟s built-in IR code
library.
Internal IR Code Library:
Built in IR Code Library. Contains all Major Brand Component IR commands. No
need to „learn‟ commands.
•
Macros:
can be built using IR, audio control, RS232, repeat or delay commands and associated with a
specific button or event. They can be triggered by a keypad button press, an RC68+ IR code, an MX88
compatible keypad command, control sense status, video sense status or by RS232. Up to 40 IR
commands can be issued in a single Macro.
•
Audio/Video loop-through
on all eight source inputs (video applies to MX88vi only)
•
Power Management
: Keeps all components
‟ power states in sync with Zone Power Status
All eight video source inputs have built-in NTSC/PAL sync sensing (MX88v only)
All eight sources have current sense inputs for use with a CSM1 Current Sensor.
•
Preamp level audio outputs
for all eight zones
Frequency response: 12 Hz to 55KHz (±3dB)
THD: <0.08%.
Signal-to-noise ratio: > 96dB A-weighted
•
Amplification
:
Zones 1 through 8 have built-in stereo audio amplifiers at 50 Watts per channel
Zones 7 and 8 are also designed to be used with external amplifiers in case higher
power output is desired. CO1 and CO2 Control Outputs provide on/off or mute trigger
signals to external amps used for zones 7 and 8.
•
V
ideo outputs
for all eight zones
(MX88vi only)
•
IR Emitter Outputs
: Eight source-specific IR emitter outputs
One common IR emitter output
Eight zone-specific IR emitter outputs
