Extron electronic FPC 5000 manual Creating ties using the Make Ties dual keypad screen

Tie an input to an output as follows:

1. Touch the blue User > amber I/O > green Make Ties buttons.

The FPC displays one of the I/O Make Ties screen (figure 3-9). The screen view that the FPC displays is the last Make Ties screen that was active.

2. Select the video and/or audio format(s) to tie by touching the desired Signal Type button(s). On the dual-keypad screen, the first virtual output among the selected signal types is displayed in the Virtual Output field.

Available signal types are indicated by a green circle. Selected signal types are indicated by a red ring around the 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 an input is tied to that output, the input is displayed in the Input Video (and/or Audio) field.

3.	If desired, touch the green Change View button		to toggle between the
	Make Ties: dual keypad screen and the Make Ties: alternate view screen.
