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 input button indicators, output button indicators, or control button indicators that may be lit.

2.Select video, audio, or both for configuration by pressing the Video button and Audio button as necessary.

3.Select the desired input and output(s) by pressing the input and output buttons.

Input buttons and output buttons light or blink:

Amber to indicate video and audio ties

Green to indicate video only ties

Red to indicate audio only ties

To indicate potential ties, output buttons blink the appropriate color when an input is selected.

To indicate current ties, output buttons light steadily the appropriate color when an input is selected.

To clear unwanted outputs, press and release the associated lit output buttons. To indicate potential unties, output buttons blink the appropriate color when an output is deselected but not untied from the input.

4.Press and release the Enter button to accept the tie or to break an existing tie.

5.Repeat steps 1 through 4 to create or clear additional ties until the desired configuration is complete.

NOTES: Only one video input and one audio 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 the button for the selected input

lights.

When the Video button and the Audio button are lit, if an input with an

audio tie but no video tie is selected, the button for the input and the

button for the output light the appropriate color (amber, green, or red).

As each input and output is selected, the associated output button blinks

the appropriate color to indicate a tentative tie. Buttons for outputs that

were already tied to the input light the appropriate color 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 input that is I/O grouped (see “I/O grouping“, on page 39) and then try to select an output in a different group, you cannot select the associated output button. The associated input button remains lit.
