Viewing outputs tied to a specified input

View the output tied to a selected input as follows:

 

 

1.

If necessary, touch the View Outputs button.

The most recently

 

 

selected View Ties: output-by-input-selection screen appears. See 2 and

4

 

on figure 3-8.

 

 

2.

If necessary, touch the Change View button

to display screen 2

on

 

figure 3-8.

 

 

3.

Select the video and/or audio format(s) to view by touching the

 

 

desired blue Signal Type button(s). The first virtual input among

 

 

the selected signal types is displayed in the Virtual Input field.

 

 

 

Available signal types are indicated by a green circle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Video signal types (RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, YUV, YC, and

 

 

 

Video) include the audio plane (if there is one in your system).

 

 

 

The Audio Only signal type does not include any video planes.

 

 

If one or more outputs is tied to that virtual input, the first

 

 

tied output is displayed in the Video Out (and/or Audio Out)

 

 

field.

 

 

 

Text blocks directly under the Video Out and Audio Out fields

 

 

identify the quantity of outputs that are tied to the selected virtual input.

 

 

If no output is tied to that virtual input, the Video Out and/or Audio Out

 

fields are blank.

 

 

4.

Use the Video Out and Audio Out scroll boxes to see a listing of all of the

 

outputs tied to the selected virtual input. Outputs that are not tied to that

 

virtual input are not included in the scroll box.

 

 

5.

Use the input keypad or scroll through the valid inputs to select another

 

 

virtual input for which you desire to view the tied outputs.

 

 

 

Leading zeroes are not required for keypad entry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you enter a number for a virtual input that does not exist in the

 

 

 

Matrix 12800, the number is displayed in red in the keypad

 

 

 

display.

 

 

6.

Observe that the first output tied to the selected virtual input

 

 

is displayed in the Input Video and/or Input Audio field.

 

7.

To view the outputs tied to another input, repeat steps 5 and 6.

 

Viewing all ties

View all of the ties by touching the green Change View button. One of the View Ties: alternate screens appears. See 3 and 4 on figure 3-8. On the alternate screen, the output scroll bars, keypad, and fields are replaced with a grid that shows all outputs and the inputs that are tied to them. You can choose whether the view is by-inputs or by-outputs by touching the green View Inputs button

or View Outputs button , although there is very little difference between the two screens. The biggest difference is that if you have selected the View Ties: outputs-by-input-selection screen, when you select a virtual input (either using the scroll bars or the keypad) all of the virtual outputs are displayed in red in the grid. This gives you an easy way to see all of the outputs tied to an input at a glance.
