Z-Order is a function that assigns priorities to input modules in a bank. The higher the
priority, the further “forward” the output region appears on the canvas. The following
important rules apply:
•Six (6) is the highest priority — visually in front of all other output regions.
•One (1) is the lowest priority (in a configuration with six input modules) — visually
behind all other output regions in the bank.
•Priority assignments are mutually exclusive. If you change the priority of one
module, all other modules change accordingly.
•Priority is bank-specific. In a system with two banks, each bank will have its own
highest and lowest priority modules.
When you run the Input Wizard, Z-order is automatic, based on the configuration of the
input modules in the selected bank:
•The right-most input module (directly adjacent to an output module) is
automatically assigned the highest priority.
•Subsequent input modules are assigned priority sequentially, in descending order.

Use the following steps to change Z-Order:
1. (Optional) If required, use the Preset Management Menu to recall a preset that
includes the input that you wish to adjust. This step “activates” an input. Refer to
the “Recall a Preset” section on page 104. If the input is already active, no action
is required in this step.
