Operator`s manual
In the same example, with the Mnemonics option installed, Synergy replaces the pre-
programmed Synergy name (ROUTER 1) with the router’s name of the source (VTR 12)
on the crosspoint’s mnemonic display. This provides easy identification of all inputs
coming from your router.
Synergy can connect to multiple different routers, and even multiple different brands of
routers, simultaneously. All of the following router protocols become available with the
purchase of this option, and are selectable via the switcher menu system:
• Ross Routing Systems
• Pesa
• Pro-Bel
• Utah Scientific
• Quartz
• Philips
If your router is not on the above list, please contact your Ross sales representative as new
routers are being added all the time.
Serial Tally Interface S4MDX-906
This option enables Serial Tally Interface using industry standard protocols to Under
Monitor Display and Tally Systems. The standard parallel tally interface will continue to
operate normally when this option is enabled.
Peripheral Bus II Interface S4MDX-907
This option enables support for Thomson GVG Peripheral Bus II Protocol for external
device integration. Devices that support this protocol (such as some still stores, CGs, and
device controllers) will be directed to store their settings when Synergy stores its settings
and then do a coordinated recall when Synergy performs a recall.
Still Store (Chyron Aprisa) Interface S4MDX-908
This option enables serial ports for control over the Chyron Aprisa Still & Clipstore. It
allows a user to randomly access any still or clip under control from Synergy. Custom
Control macros can also be created for quick and direct access to clips and switcher scene
recalls.

This option provides the protocol converters required to control a pair of cascaded
Yamaha Audio Mixers simultaneously. Either the Small Audio Mixer Interface or the
Large Audio Mixer Interface options must also be purchased.
Included in this option are the MIDIator Systems MS-124W converter box and the Midi
Merger unit.
Small Audio Mixer Interface S4MDX-911
(16 and Fewer Inputs)
This option enables serial control for enhanced audio-follow-video from Synergy over
small audio mixers, making an integrated A/V production possible.
