SECTION 1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The KNOX MEDIAFLEX SERIES AUDIO/VIDEO DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
are modular devices which accept up to sixteen composite, Y/C, RGBHV, or analog
HDTV video sources (up to 1080I or 720P), sixteen unbalanced or balanced stereo
audio sources, and (optionally) eight sources of VGA signal. The MediaFlex con-
nects any one of the input SOURCES (buffered electrically) to one or more of the
sixteen ZONES.
1.2 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The MediaFlex Series uses a single chip microprocessor with battery-backed
memory to drive a set of monolithic digital latching crosspoint decoders.
Cross-point information is collected by the microprocessor from the front
panel pushbutton switches, the infrared remote control, or from the RS232 input
on the rear panel, and distributed to the crosspoint decoders. Audio or video may
be routed together or separately.
