MX1. Where applicable, the additional options for the maximum configuration are indicated. This manual describes the operation of the MX1 through the LCD screen. Organization of this Manual Introduction. This chapter describes the hardware interfaces of the MX1 and the front and rear panels. -
Page 6: Introduction
6 Introduction The MX1 Single MPEG-2 integrated receiver decoder is designed to reduce cost and satisfy video, audio, and data requirements of digital broadcast television, cable and satellite operations. The MX1 integrated receiver decoder is a fully interoperable decoder for digital media networks that complies fully with the DVB MPEG-2 standard. - Page 7 In remote mode, all decoder functions can be operated remotely from a PC under MS-WINDOWS through the IP interface. In addition to an RS232 or RS422 communication port, the MX1 can provide a General Purpose Interface (GPI) via a 9-pin D-type connector that allows dry contact alarms.
