AMX MXA-MPL - Modero X and Modero S Series Multi Preview Live in Black Finish

The AMX MXA-MPL, a multi-preview live accessory for Modero X and Modero S Series Touch Panels, provides seamless video and image streaming capabilities for users in AV environments. Designed to work in conjunction with the Enova DVX All-In-One Presentation Switcher or Enova DGX Digital Media Switcher, the MXA-MPL allows users to display a high-definition digital video stream or up to 10 preview images on compatible Modero X Series Touch Panels. It simplifies AV management by enabling users to quickly identify which sources are being displayed, offering both real-time video streaming and sequential image updates for up to 10 devices. Whether you need to stream live video or display preview images, the MXA-MPL enhances control and usability in conference rooms, classrooms, or any other AV-controlled spaces.

The MXA-MPL supports both analog and digital video inputs over HDMI, DVI, and other video formats, such as RGB, component, composite, and S-Video via an optional DVI connector adapter. With the ability to accept a variety of video formats, the device ensures compatibility with a wide range of media sources, offering versatility for any AV system setup. It converts incoming video sources into a video stream that is displayed on the Modero X Series Touch Panels, providing a consistent user experience across various formats and input types.

One of the key features of the MXA-MPL is its ability to display up to 10 JPEG preview images on Modero X Touch Panels, helping users quickly identify the content being displayed by up to 10 different source devices. The preview images are updated sequentially, or one can be continuously displayed, offering flexibility based on the needs of the user. This functionality is especially useful for AV system operators who need to monitor multiple inputs and make quick adjustments during meetings, presentations, or events.

With its sleek design and compact form factor, the MXA-MPL fits neatly into professional AV setups, offering seamless integration between Modero X Series Touch Panels and Enova DVX or Enova DGX systems. The device connects via Ethernet, making installation simple and efficient by reducing cable runs and providing reliable communication between devices. The Ethernet connection also supports IP pass-through, allowing for streamlined network management and improved connectivity.

The device is powered via a 120VAC connection and includes an external MIC AC universal power cord. When used with a touch panel requiring Power over Ethernet (PoE), a compatible AMX-supported PoE solution is required. Additionally, the MXA-MPL supports a wide range of video input resolutions, including HDMI, DVI, and RGB inputs, making it a versatile option for displaying both high-definition and standard-definition video sources. The output is compatible with up to 720p at 30 fps over IP, ensuring smooth video playback.

The MXA-MPL also features a variety of front and rear panel components designed for easy operation and troubleshooting. Front panel indicators include LEDs for power, status, video input, LAN connection, and panel communication, providing clear feedback to users. The reset and factory reset buttons allow for easy reboots and resets to default settings when necessary. On the rear panel, the MXA-MPL offers a DVI-I multi-format video input, analog audio input for non-HDMI sources, HDMI diagnostics output for troubleshooting, and an Ethernet pass-through for the connected touch panel.

In terms of environmental considerations, the MXA-MPL is designed to operate within a temperature range of 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C) and humidity levels of 20% to 85% RH. The device is intended for indoor use only and provides a power dissipation rate of 232 BTU/hr, ensuring efficient operation in a wide variety of AV setups.
