3.4. HDMI and TPS Matrix Concept
MMX8x4 series devices are multifunctional audio/video matrix switchers with eight inputs and four outputs.
The matrix gives the possibility to route many kinds of signal formats including TPS and other available
interfaces. This chapter is about to present the features and limitations of these interfaces.

3.5.1. TPS Working Modes
The TPS working mode between the transmitter and the receiver parties is determined by the mode set in
them. Both parties influence on the setting which determines the final TPS transmission mode.
The following TPS modes are defined in the matrix:
