Viewing a configuration

The current configuration can be viewed using the front panel buttons. The View- Only mode prevents inadvertent changes to the current configuration. View-Onlymode also provides a way to mute video and audio outputs (see “Muting and unmuting video and/or audio outputs” on page 3-32.

View the current configuration as follows:

1.

Press the Esc button to clear any input button indications, output button

 

indications, or control button indications that may be on.

2.

Press and release the View button. All of the buttons for outputs that are not

 

tied light:

 

Amber: No tied video or audio input

 

Green: No tied video input

 

Red: No tied audio input

3.

Select video, audio, or both to view by pressing the RGBHV

 

(CrossPoint 450 Plus switchers) or Video (MAV Plus switchers) button and/or

 

the Audio button.

4.

Select the desired input or output(s) whose ties you wish to view by pressing

 

the input and output buttons.

• When you enter View-Onlymode, the output buttons light for all outputs without ties. Likewise, when an output button for which there are no ties is pushed, the output buttons turn on for all outputs without ties.

To see all ties of the current configuration, press and release each input and output button, one at a time, with the RGBHV (CrossPoint 450 Plus switchers) or Video (MAV Plus switchers) button and the Audio button lit.

In View-Onlymode, you can view video and audio, video-only, or audio- only ties. Pressing and releasing the RGBHV (CrossPoint 450 Plus switchers) or Video (MAV Plus switchers) button and the Audio button toggles each on and off.

When you view video and audio ties, the RGBHV (CrossPoint 450 Plus switchers) or Video (MAV Plus switchers) button is lit green and the Audio button is lit red. After you select an input or output, the output buttons light different colors to show where video and audio ties are not the same (audio is broken away). Amber = video and audio, green = video only, and red = audio only.

After 30 seconds of front panel inactivity, View-Onlymode automatically deselects.
