MX-FR Series Modular Matrix Frames – User's Manual 101
Storage Memories
it is important to know which setting is stored in which memory.
Matrix Frame Memory
Settings
▪ Matrix router serial number
▪ HDCP options
▪
These settings are stored in the matrix frame memory and remain after any board swap – even CPU2 – or
CPU Board Memory
Settings
▪
▪ EDID lists (F, U, D)
▪ EDID emulation table (E)
▪ Input and Output port settings
▪ Crosspoint settings and Crosspoint presets
▪ Serial port settings
▪ IP settings
▪ Analog video timings
▪ Test input multiplexer (FR80)
▪ Protocol modes
▪ Remote alert send levels
Basic error list
ends with a reset, so the log is lost, but the whole logged data is stored in the SD card, as well.
Settings: Detailed error list
Error log helps the support team if there is any dysfunction. CPU2 board stores the error log with time
stamps.
Input and Output Board Memory
Settings: Manufacturing parameters
An input or output board can store the manufacturing parameters regarding only the board that contains
them.
Switching and Control Commands
Test Input and Preview Output
MX-FR80R and MX-FR80R
Used in the MX-FR80R or MX-FR65R router frame, the Preview output is directly connected to the 80th output
port with a DVI splitter. Therefore this port always outputs the same signal as the 80th output, even if it has
a different interface (TP, OPT, etc.). The 80th input port of the crosspoint is multiplexed between the Test
input port and the 8th port of the 10th input card. This switch is independent from the crosspoint state. The
selected port (Test input or Input board #10) will be available as the 80th input on the crosspoint switch.
Other Frames
All other frames use the Test input and Preview output just like any other ports. These ports are referred to
as the last port in the crosspoint.
Frame Test input Preview output
MX-FR9, MX-FR9R in 9 out 9
MX-FR17, MX-FR17R in 17 out 17
MX-FR33L, MX-FR33R in 33 out 33
MX-FR65R in 80 out 80
MX-FR80R multiplexed in 80 distributed out 80
DIFFERENCE:
The status of the
multiplexer is not shown in other crosspoint commands. The crosspoint switching works independently
from this setting.
Command and Response
ȩ {TI=<value>}
Ȩ (TI=<value>)CrLf
Parameters
Parameter description Parameter values
<value> ?:
0: Set port multiplexer to use the 8th port of the 10th input card.
1: Set port multiplexer to use the Test input port.
Example
ȩ {ti=?}
Ȩ (TI=1)CrLf
The test input is selected for the 80th input of crosspoint. The last port on the 10th input board is not used.
