DVS 510 Series • Operation 15
a Input Buttons — Press the desired input button to select an input and switch it to
the current output. The visual effect accompanying the switch (switch effect) can be
a cut or a fade, depending on the selection (see “Advanced Configuration Menu”
on page 29). With front panel input selection, audio always follows (switches with) the
front panel video selection. (Video and audio breakaway switching are available only via
SIS commands [see the “Remote Configuration and Control” section, beginning on
page 47]).
• Signal types: The input buttons listed below select connected sources that support
the following signal types:
• 1 and 2: Composite
• 3 and 4: S-video
• 5, 6, 7, and 9: RGB (includes RGBHV, RGBS, RGBcvS, and RGsB) or component
video (YUVp/HDTV or YUVi)
• 8 and 10: DVI
• Input button lighting: When an input button is pressed, it lights amber unless
the DVS is in picture-in-picture (PIP) mode (see “Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode”
on page 18 for more information). If the audio is broken away (switched separately
from the video), the button for the selected video input lights green and the button
for the selected audio input lights red.
• Auto-Image: If an input button is held for 3 seconds, the Auto-Image feature is
activated for that input, sizing and centering the selected image to fill the screen
(see “Auto Image submenu” on page 30).
• Input buttons in PIP mode: If the picture-in-picture (PIP) feature is enabled, the
input buttons select an input for either the background (primary) window or the PIP
(secondary) window. The primary input button lights amber and the secondary (PIP)
input button lights green. If the PIP feature is turned off, the input buttons select
the main output only, and no input button lights green.
If the PIP feature is on when an input is selected, the audio associated with that
input in the PIP window is muted. The audio does not become unmuted until either:
• It is swapped to the main window.
• An SIS “Audio follow” command has been issued to configure the DVS to
make the audio follow the PIP window.
(See “Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode” for more information.)
b PIP control buttons — When PIP is enabled, a secondary image from a second source
appears on the screen in front of the main image, in a previously selected size and
position. The default size of the PIP window is one-fourth screen and it is positioned in
the lower-right corner of the display.
The following two buttons control the picture-in-picture (PIP) function:
• PIP On/Off button: Turns PIP mode on and off (toggles between showing and
hiding the picture-in-picture on the display). This button lights when the DVS is in
PIP mode.
• PIP Swap button: Toggles the primary (main or background) and secondary (PIP)
pictures between the main image and the PIP window.
(See “Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Mode” for more information on the picture-in-picture
function.)
