Appendix D – Creating Virtual Matrices

Creating a New Virtual Matrix

Important: Save a backup copy of the existing configuration file if you find it necessary to modify the file for any reason.

Process Overview

Creating a new virtual matrix involves creating virtual channels which must be assigned to the physical connectors and grouped into a virtual matrix. For more information on virtual matrices, see page 119. Four dialog boxes are used for creating a virtual matrix. The first is for assigning the signals to the VM; the second for assigning the signals to the physical matrix; the third for selecting the connector assignment method; and the fourth for completing the connector assignments. To access the Help file regarding an open dialog box, press F1.
