MGP 641 xi Series • Setup Guide
The MGP 641 xi Series, consisting of MGP 641 xi and MGP 641 xi SDI, are multi-window video signal processors that display
multiple video sources on a single screen in picture-in-picture or picture-by-picture format. They feature dedicated connectivity
for each of the four windows, fully customizable window layouts, HDCP 1.4 and 2.3 support, logo and background image
support, logo keying, and ultra-high resolution support up to 2560x1600 and 4K at 60 Hz on both inputs and outputs. The
MGP 641 xi Series can be controlled and configured using the front panel controls, Simple Instruction Set™ (SIS™) commands,
the internal web page, and the Videowall Configuration Software (VCS).
Both models have four HDMI inputs, one HDMI background input, one HDMI output, and one buffered DTP3 output. In addition,
the MGP 641 xi SDI model has four 12G-SDI inputs. Each input is dedicated to one window.
The VCS program is available at www.extron.com. For information on using VCS, see the VCS Help File, also available on the
Extron website.
