Step 2: First select the Output number keys 02, 03 and 05 to the right, and select the Input number key 01 to the bottom.

Then, consecutively press the previously selected Output number keys 02, 03 and 05 (or press the Deselect all output key). This selects Input 01 to be routed to Outputs 02, 03, and 05.

Step 3: First select the Output number key 06 to the right, and select the Input number key 03 to the bottom.

Then, press the previously selected Output number key 06 (or press the Deselect all output key). This selects Input 03 to be routed to Output 06.

Example 2 (Video Only Switching):: Using a SW808HD matrix having all the input/output ports properly connected to the equipment. To set the input/output connectors to switching from video channel 1 to output channels number 1, 6 and 7 and also to switch from audio channel 2 to output channel 8. There are two ways of operations:

First method: In the lower right corner of the blue area, enable the Video and disable the Audio functions (check/uncheck the white boxes). To complete the

switching operation, click on the corresponding icons corresponding directly to the INPUT number key 01 and the OUTPUT number keys 01, 06, and 07 on the

matrix to turn them into .

Second method:

The following 4 steps, completes the operation of switching video channel 1 to output channels 1, 6, and 7 while also switching audio channel 2 to output channel 8.

Step 1: In the lower right corner of the blue area, enable the Video and disable the Audio functions (check/uncheck the white boxes).

Step 2: Select the output number keys 01,06 and 07 to the right and select the input number key 01 to the bottom.

Then, press the previously pressed output number keys 01, 06, and 07 to the right (or press the Deselect all output key). This selects video switching of input 01 to output 01,06 and 07.

Step 3: In the lower right corner of the blue area, disable the Video and enable the Audio functions (uncheck/check the white boxes).

Step 4: Select output number key 08 to the right and input number key 02 to the bottom. Then, press again the previously pressed output number key to the right (or press the Deselect all output key). This selects audio switching of input 02 to output 08.
