Muting and Unmuting Video and Audio Outputs

Individual outputs can be muted or unmuted as follows:

NOTE: Output mutes are protected when front panel Lock mode 2 is selected. You can view the status of the output (muted or unmuted) in Lock mode 2 but you cannot change it from the front panel (see Setting the Front Panel Locks (Executive Modes) on page 75).

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.

3.Select video, audio, or both to mute or unmute by pressing the RGBHV (CrossPoint switchers) or Video (MAV Plus switchers) button and the Audio button.

4.One at a time, press and hold the buttons for the desired outputs for approximately 2 seconds. The output buttons for the selected outputs blink to indicate the mute or return to their previous state to indicate the unmute.

5.Press and release the View button to return to normal switcher operation.

NOTES:

You can mute video and audio, video-only, or audio-only outputs. Pressing and releasing the RGBHV (CrossPoint switchers) or Video (MAV Plus switchers) button and the Audio button toggles each selection on and off.

When you enter View-onlymode, the output LEDs turn on for all outputs without ties.

On CrossPoint switchers, the video mute function mutes the R, G, and B planes only; the H and V planes are still active. On MAV Plus switchers, the video mute function mutes all video planes.

Mutes are saved to non-volatile memory. When power is removed and restored, the mute settings are retained.
