Button icons

The numbered translucent covers on the input and output pushbuttons can be removed and replaced to insert labels behind the covers.

Input and output labels can be created easily with Extron’s Button-Label Generator software, which ships with every Extron matrix switcher. Each input and output can be labeled with names, alphanumeric characters, or even color bitmaps for easy and intuitive input and output selection (figure 3-4). See chapter 5, “Matrix Software”, for details on using the labeling software. See Appendix B, “Reference Information”, for blank labels and a procedure for removing and replacing the translucent covers.

Front Panel Operations

The following paragraphs detail the power-up process and then provide sample procedures for creating ties; changing a configuration; viewing configurations; saving and recalling a preset; muting and unmuting outputs, viewing and adjusting the audio level; viewing and adjusting the output volume; locking out the front panel; performing one of several resets; toggling background illumination on and off; and reading and setting the rear panel Remote port settings.

Front panel security lockouts

In the procedural descriptions that follow, it is assumed that the switcher is in Lock mode 0 (fully unlocked). The following two Lock modes are also available:

•Lock mode 1 — All changes are locked from the front panel (except for setting Lock mode 2). Some functions can be viewed.

•Lock mode 2 — Advanced features are locked and can be viewed only. Basic functions are unlocked.

See “Setting the front panel locks (Executive modes)” on page 3-48 for a detailed list of basic and advanced functions and the procedure to set the various front panel locks.
