Download Advanced Matrix Programmer (AMP) (2G Legacy Mode, Omega, Ultra, and MaxColor Series)

Overview

Advanced Matrix Programmer (AMP) configures Just Add Power Encoders and Decoders into an HDMI matrix switching system. It supports Omega Series, Ultra Series, and MaxColor Series systems through Standardized Configuration and Alternate Configuration. Supported 2G Series systems use Standardized Configuration through AMP 2G Legacy Mode.

AMP 2.0.2 resolves the TP-Link matrix switching and AMP service issue in Standardized Configuration systems. It includes B3.2.1, MAX v4.5.1, and L1.1.9.1 device firmware.

Latest AMP Version: v2.0.2

Release Date: November 4, 2026

Recommended Setup: Standardized Configuration

All new systems must use AMP. JADConfig is intended only for established systems and reaches End of Support on January 1, 2027. Review the JADConfig End of Support notice and migration requirements when planning service or conversion.

System Configuration Options

Standardized Configuration (Recommended)

AMP configures supported managed switches and Just Add Power Encoders and Decoders together. Standardized Configuration uses VLAN Switching and can also accommodate standard network devices on extra switch ports.

  • Supports Omega Series, Ultra Series, and MaxColor Series systems.
  • Supports 2G Series systems through AMP 2G Legacy Mode.
  • Requires switches from the Standardized Configuration supported switch list.
  • Select Build & Expand to begin configuration.
  • Supports up to 63 switches, 101 Encoders, and 3023 Decoders.

2G Legacy Mode: Requires Standardized Configuration. AMP applies L Series firmware to 2G Series devices and compatible Omega Series and Ultra Series devices during configuration. Review 2G Legacy Mode hardware compatibility and capability limitations before planning the system.

Ruckus Switch Restriction: Ruckus switches are not supported in AMP 2G Legacy Mode. For systems that include 2G Series devices, select a supported switch from another manufacturer.

Alternate Configuration

AMP configures the Encoders and Decoders only. The installer or network administrator configures the switches and network for Multicast Switching.

  • Supports Omega Series, Ultra Series, and MaxColor Series systems.
  • Does not support AMP 2G Legacy Mode.
  • Requires a network that meets the Multicast Switching minimum requirements.
  • Select Alternate Configuration from the bottom-left corner of AMP to begin.
  • Supports up to 9,999 Encoders and an unlimited number of Decoders, depending on network design.

For strengths, tradeoffs, and use cases, see Choosing between Standardized and Alternate Configurations.

Before You Begin

Confirm device compatibility, switch support, network capacity, and control-system requirements before configuration.

If you are converting an established JADConfig system to AMP, complete the preparation steps for your system before changing its configuration:
