MP2 - Control System with A/V Switching:

The MP2 is a low-cost 2-Series control system and audio/video switcher that provides total control of a room's multimedia resources, including CD players, DVD players, projectors, screens, window coverings, even lighting. With a unique combination of high-performance control and switching at an affordable price, the MP2 is the ideal AV control solution for colleges, corporate campuses and other multi-room facilities.

Power

The heart of the MP2 is the 2-Series processor, built on Motorola's 32-bit, 257 MIPS ColdFire® technology. The MP2 features the same processor as the higher end PRO2 and AV2, with 36MB of onboard memory, allowing the MP2 to run the most sophisticated control applications.

Professional Video Control

The 4x2 high-bandwidth video crosspoint distributes video from 4 composite sources to two destinations - great for sending sources to presentation displays like plasma screens or projectors while previewing sources on a Crestron touchpanel. Alternatively, 2 S-video sources can be switched to one display device. The video inputs include video signal detectors to confirm device power and signal presence.

The Crestron C2N-MMS video matrix switcher can easily be added to extend the video processing capabilities of the MP2. With 3 additional S-Video inputs switchable to 2 outputs, 4 RGB inputs switchable to 2 outputs, and the C2N-MMS-SC scan converter card, the C2N-MMS is the ideal complement to the MP2.

Professional Audio Control

The 7x1 stereo audio switcher provides balanced and unbalanced switching of room audio sources, with stereo volume and tone control and a 6-band graphic/parametric equalizer, so the sound is always precisely tailored to the listening environment. All the audio features of the MP2 are easily programmable with Crestron Digital Audio Tools™ software. Drag sliders and adjust waveforms to set EQ filters and presets. Select real time mode to hear the sound as it is adjusted, create a configuration file ready to be uploaded to the MP2.

Versatility

I/O options include 2 bi-directional COM ports; 4 IR ports; 4 isolated relays; 4 I/O Versiports; 6 BNC video connectors; 8 stereo audio connectors; 1 Cresnet port; and 1 IR input designed to work with the CNXRMIRD IR detector and any universal RC-5 IR remote, for low-cost control of AV devices.
