Extron electronic MAV manual Example 5 Muting and unmuting an output

Page 35

2.When you enter view-only mode, the output LEDs turn on for all outputs without ties.

3.When you mute video, the mute command mutes all video planes.

4.Mutes are not saved to non-volatile memory. When power is removed and restored, the mute settings are lost.

Example 5: Muting and unmuting an output

See figure 3-8, on page 3-9, and figure 3-12 and the following steps for an example of muting and unmuting several MAV switcher outputs.

Figure 3-8 shows the process of viewing the current configuration after the steps in Examples 1, 2, and 3 have been completed.

APress and release the Esc button. The Esc LED flashes once.

BPress and release the View button to enter view-only mode. The View LED lights.

CTo select both video and audio for viewing, if necessary, press and release the Video and Audio buttons until the Video LED and Audio LED light. With no input LED selected, all output LEDs that have no established ties light.

DOne at a time, press an hold the Output 3 and Output 4 buttons (figure 3-12) for approximately 2 seconds until the associated output LED begins to blink. The output 3 and output 4 video and audio signals are muted.

Figure 3-12 shows only the indications directly related to the mute operation. Indications from existing ties are not shown to avoid confusion.
