MGP Series • Special Applications
This chapter describes some special types of applications that represent unique
conditions. For the MGP to operate properly in these situations, it is important that
it be configured correctly. On the following pages, two application examples are
described, along with their requirements for the MGP 464 or MGP 462xi.
Application 1: Connecting the MGP to a Matrix Switcher
When the MGP is attached to a matrix switcher, such as the CrossPoint Ultra
shown below, inputs 1 through 4 come to the MGP through the switcher, which
supports RGB, component video, S-video, and composite video signal types. This
application can be used with either an MGP 464 or an MGP 462xi.
