Using Presets

The current configuration (configuration 0) can be saved as a preset in any one of 32 preset memory addresses. All 32 presets are assigned to the input buttons and (where necessary) output buttons and are available to be either saved or retrieved from the front panel.

Up to 20 (MTPX Plus 128) or all 32 (all other models) presets can be selected from the front panel to be either saved or retrieved. When a preset is retrieved from memory, it becomes the current configuration.

NOTES: Only the audio and video ties are stored and recalled; audio gain settings are

not saved, and they do not change when a preset is recalled.

Presets cannot be viewed from the front panel unless they are recalled as

the current configuration. Presets can be viewed using the Extron Matrix

Switchers Control Program (see the “Matrix Software” section).

The current configuration and all presets are stored in non-volatile memory.

When power is removed and restored, the current configuration is still active

and all presets are retained.

When a preset is recalled, it replaces the current configuration, which is lost

unless it is also stored as a preset. The recalled preset overwrites all of the

current configuration ties in favor of the preset configuration ties.

All models have 32 presets; on the MTPX Plus 128, preset numbers that are

too high to be available from the front panel are still accessible under serial

port, USB, or Ethernet control.

Figure 24 shows the presets associated with the three input and output button configurations for the MTPX Plus matrix switchers.
