IRS Series Intelligent Matrix Switcher

Chapter 1 Overview

Introduction

The IRS Series products include 16X16/16X8/16X4 intelligent matrix switchers, matrix switchers with
control panels, and remote panel modules. The variety of standard models can meet the different needs
of users.
The IRS series of intelligent, HD/SD small matrix switcher are high-performance matrix products for
small and medium-sized broadcast system. This series of products can support up to 16 embedded
digital HD/SD signal output switching. They can fully meet the needs of small and medium-sized signal
scheduling system.
The products with the input signal source status display function and misuse protection mechanism
would make the broadcast system more secure and stable. And, the series products support network
control. As the simple operation, the users can simply operate the switchers without mistake.
The IRS Series products can be applied to the broadcast system on the carrier signal scheduling, are
suitable for broadcast room, master control room, studio, and other areas of a variety of real-time
applications, to switch the SDI input signal to the output signal.

Feature

 The intelligent matrix switchers would monitor and text the each channel input signal. The
button is tri-color key. Normal signal lights GREEN while the non-normal signal lights RED.
And PGM output signal is YELLOW. It visually shows the reality of the current work status of
each signal.
 The IRS series support intelligent protection function in order to avoiding "misuse". When the
input signal is detected abnormal, the switching operation for output would be invalid.
 The IRS1604 matrix switcher series have the automatic switching function. Each switching
matrix switcher has a direct access to BYPASS input signal. When the PGM main output
signal is abnormal, the output will automatically switch to the BYPASS signal.
 IRS series matrix switchers have the alarm function for following anomalies: 1) loss of
synchronization; 2) PGM output signals abnormal; 3) the host and the remote control panel
switching detection timeout.
 The IRS series matrix switchers have a comprehensive detection function and the test
content including INPUT signal status, synchronization status, and device temperature, etc.
 Dual redundant power modular design and the input cable equalization automatically.
 Support NETWORK protocol, which enables network control.
