Creating a configuration

The current configuration can be changed using the front panel buttons. Change the current configuration as follows:

1.

Press the Esc button to clear any front panel button indications that may be lit.

2.

Select the desired input and output(s) by pressing the input and output

 

buttons. Input buttons and output buttons light or blink green to indicate ties.

 

• To indicate potential ties, output buttons blink when an input is

 

selected.

 

• To indicate current ties, output buttons light steadily when an input is

 

selected.

 

• To clear unwanted outputs, press and release the associated lit output

 

buttons. To indicate potential unties, output buttons blink when an

 

output is deselected but not untied from the input.

3.

Press and release the Enter button to accept the tie.

4.

Repeat steps 1 through 3 to create or delete additional ties until the desired

 

configuration is complete.

N• Only one input can be tied to an output.

•If a tie is made between an input and an output, and the selected output was previously tied to another input, the older tie is broken in favor of the newer tie.

•If an input with no tie is selected, only that input’s button lights.

•As each input and output is selected, the associated output button blinks to indicate a tentative tie. Buttons for output(s) that were already tied to the input light steadily. Outputs that are already tied can be left on, along with new blinking selections, or toggled off by pressing the associated output button.

•If you press the input button for an I/O grouped input and then try to select an output in a different group, you cannot select the associated output button. The associated input button remains lit.

•An optical input can be tied to optical and/or SDI/HD-SDI outputs, and an

SDI/HD-SDI input can be tied to SDI/HD-SDI and/or optical outputs.
