5. To add the potential tie or set of ties that you have just created to a queue of

tie commands that take affect all at once, touch the green Queue button. The FPC displays the equivalent SIS commands in the Pending Tie commands field.

6.

To add more potential ties to the queue, repeat steps 1 through 3.

 

 

Only one input can be tied to given output. If a queue of tie commands

 

 

 

 

attempts to assign multiple inputs to an output, the Matrix 12800 makes each

 

 

of the ties in turn and the last switch in the queue is the tie that remains at the

 

 

end of the sequence.

7.

To switch an immediate tie or to switch all of the ties in the queue, touch the

 

green Take button.

Preset screens

After you have created all of the ties that will be needed for a specific task, the configuration can be saved as either a global or room preset. The Matrix 12800 can support up to 64 global presets and up to 10 room presets in each of up to 32 rooms.

To create room presets, you must have already created rooms and assigned outputs to the rooms when you virtualized the system, refer to the Matrix 12800 Wideband, Sync, or Audio Switchers User’s Manual,

part #68-556-01.

You cannot create rooms or assign outputs to the room using the FPC 5000.

When you touch the amber Preset button

, the FPC displays the Global

Preset screen by default ( 7 on figure 3-10).

 

Working with either global or room presets are similar operations with the exception of selecting the room presets or global presets button and selecting a room if required.

Save, recall, or delete a global preset

See

7 on figure 3-10.

Save, recall, or delete a global preset as follows:

1a.

From any screen other than the Room Preset Screen, touch the blue User >

 

amber Preset buttons.

 

.

 

 

1b.

From the Room Preset screen, touch the green Global button.

 

The FPC displays the Global Preset screen.

2.

Select the desired global preset number by touching the appropriate preset

 

button.

The Delete, Save, and Recall buttons appear.

If this global preset has not been used before, only the Save button appears.
