Installation And Cabling; Step 1 - Mount The Switcher - Extron electronics MLS 608 D Setup Manual

Installation and Cabling

Step 1 — Mount the Switcher
Turn off or disconnect all equipment power sources and rack mount
the MLS 608 D using the two supplied brackets (see image at right)
Step 2 — Connect MLS 608 D Inputs
Video — Connect inputs from video sources to the applicable connectors marked "Inputs" (see
connector types).
b
Inputs 1-3 — RGB (RGBHV, RGBs, or RGsB), component (bi- or tri-level), S-video, or composite video signals. See rear cover
for connector pin-out table.
d
Input 4 — Universal MTP (video and audio) input on CAT 5, 5e, or 6 twisted pair cabling
CAUTION:
Do not connect the MTP cable to any LAN port, telecommunications network, or digital video output port.
Likewise, do not connect a LAN cable to any MTP, or digital video output port.
g
Inputs 5-8 — Digital HDMI (HDMI 1.3) and DVI-D (using an adapter cable) inputs
Audio — Connect inputs from audio sources to the applicable connectors marked "Inputs"

NOTE:
HDMI inputs 5-8 have the capability to de-embed source input audio (default setting).
j
Mic/line inputs 1-2 (mono). Wire as shown at right.
NOTE:
These inputs have +48 V phantom power available, and the LEDs light when power is present. This power is
turned on or off via software. "Off" is the default setting.
Step 3 — Connect MLS 608 D Outputs
NOTE:
For TP cables with RJ-45 connectors, use the same standard (T568A or T568B) at both ends
Video — Connect video output devices to the applicable connectors marked "Outputs" (see
c
Buffered output — This signal is always tied to input 1, RGB (RGBHV, or RGBs), component (bi- or tri-level),
S-video, or composite video signals.
f
Analog video output from inputs 1-4, output on CAT 5, 5e, or 6 twisted pair cabling to the MTP/HDMI U R receiver
(see  on page 1)
h
Digital video and RS-232 outputs on CAT 5, 5e, or 6 twisted pair cabling to MTP/HDMI U R receiver (see
Audio — Connect audio output devices to the applicable connectors marked "Outputs" (see f, k and l on page 1)
f
MTP analog audio output (line level mono only) on CAT 5, 5e, or 6 twisted pair cabling
k
Two line level audio outputs.
Wire as shown at right
l
Power amplifier output, either as
2-channel stereo, 20 watts per channel (MLS 608 D SA model) or mono audio, 40 watts per channel,
70 volts (MLS 608 D MA model). Wire as shown at below
CAUTIONS:
• Do not connect L and R output channels to each other,
or to ground. Doing so will short the outputs and
damage the amplifier.
• Do not short the " +" and "_" connectors together.
Doing so will damage the amplifier.
