Front Panel Controls and Indicators

The front panel controls (see figure 16 through figure 18) are grouped into two sets. The input and output buttons, a and b, are grouped on the left side of the control panel. The control buttons and video/audio (I/O) selection buttons, c through h, are grouped on the right side of the panel.

NOTES: • While the number of inputs and outputs varies, depending on the size of the

matrix, there are only three front panel arrangements:

• 12 input buttons by 8 output buttons (see figure 16)

• 16 input buttons by 16 output buttons (see figure 17)

• 32 input buttons by 32 output buttons (see figure 18)

• On smaller matrix switchers, the larger-numbered buttons are not used for input and output selection, although they are used to select and indicate preset numbers, indicate the input audio level, and indicate the output audio volume.

The illuminated pushbuttons can be labeled with text, graphics, or both. The buttons can be set to provide amber background illumination all the time, or the background illumination can be turned off (see “Background Illumination”, on page 61). The buttons blink or are lit at full intensity (depending on the operation) when selected.
