NOTES:
•Ties that were created before I/O groups were created remain valid, even if they include inputs and outputs in different groups.
•For I/O groups to be meaningful (have any function), at least two groups must be created.
•Presets can be created under serial port or Ethernet control that tie inputs and outputs across group boundaries. These presets are selectable from the front panel.
•An input or output can be assigned to only one group. If you assign an input or output to a group and that input or output is already assigned to a different group, the older grouping is discarded in favor of the new grouping.
•You can break audio away from the video for a given input or output (assigned to different groups) by isolating only video or only audio using the front panel RGBHV (CrossPoint) or Video (MAV Plus) button and the Audio button after you select I/O Group mode (between steps 2 and 3).
•Audio breakaway across different groups can be confusing when you are operating the front panel. Breakaway grouping is not displayed by the Matrix Switchers Control Program, HTML pages, or SIS commands; and is not recommended (breakaway ties, once created, are displayed).
•Ties between groups (an input in group 1 tied to an output in group 2) can be created under serial port or Ethernet control.
