Introduction, cont’d Introduction About the MAV 62 Matrix Switchers Features The Extron MAV 62 family of matrix switchers consists of two models of 6-input, 2-output audio and video matrix switchers; the MAV 62 composite matrix routes composite video and the MAV 62 S-video matrix routes S-video. Both models route balanced or unbalanced stereo audio. The MAV 62 switchers distribute any of six video and/or audio inputs to either output or to both outputs. Any input can be switched to either or both outputs.
Introduction, cont’d Rack mount option — The MAV 62 is 1U high and a half-rack width wide. It can be installed on a standard rack shelf using an Extron 1U Shelf Rack, part # 60-190-01. Auto-switching power supply — An internal power supply with an IEC connector makes power cord connection easy. The power supply can be used internationally with any power input from 110 VAC to 240 VAC at 50 or 60 Hz and adapts automatically to the input type.
Installation, cont’d Installation Installation Overview To install and set up an Extron MAV 62 switcher for operation, follow these steps: 1 Turn off all of the equipment. Ensure that the video sources (DVD players, laserdisc players, VCRs, satellite receivers, or other devices) and the output display are all turned off and disconnected from the power source. 2 Mount the switcher. See Mounting the switcher in this chapter. 3 Attach the cables. See Rear Panel Cabling in this chapter.
Installation, cont’d Composite video input connectors — Connect composite video sources to these female BNC connectors. Tip (L) Ring (R) Tip (+) The MAV 62 switchers do not alter the video signal in any way. The signal output by the switcher is in the same format as the input. 2 Connections for balanced and unbalanced audio inputs — Each input has a 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connector for balanced or unbalanced stereo audio input.
Installation, cont’d RS-232 connection 5 Timing source OUT Remote connector — Connect a host device, such as a computer or a touch control panel, to the MAV switcher via 5 1 1 5 this 9-pin D connector for remote control using 9 6 6 9 the Simple Instruction Female Male Set (SIS) or the Extron graphical control program for Windows.

RS-232/Remote Control, Control cont’d The switcher’s rear panel Remote connector (figure 4-1) can be connected to the serial port output of a host device. Remote communications with the switcher are via Extron’s Simple Instruction Set or using Extron’s Windows-based control program.
The program is contained on a single 3.5” diskette and can be run from the floppy drive, or it can be installed and run from the hard drive. To install the software on the hard drive, run setup.exe from the floppy disk and follow the screen instructions. By default, the Windows installation creates a C:\UNIVSW folder and places two icons (Universal Switcher Control Program and Universal Switcher Help) into a group named “Extron Electronics”.
RS-232/Remote Control, cont’d Using the software 1. To run the software, double click on the Universal Switcher Control Program icon in the Extron Electronics program group. 2. Click on the comm port that is connected to the MAV 62’s RS-232 port. 3. The Extron Universal Switcher Control Program window (figure 4-2) displays the selected inputs for each output and the audio gain for the selected audio inputs.
