Viewing a configuration

The current configuration can be viewed using the front panel buttons. The view- only mode prevents inadvertent changes to the current configuration. View-only mode also provides a way to mute video and audio outputs (see Muting and unmuting video and/or audio in this chapter.

To view the current configuration, do the following:

1.	Press the Esc button to clear any input LEDs, output LEDs, or control LEDs
	that may be on.
2.	Press and release the View button.
3.	Select video, audio, or both to view by pressing the Video and/or Audio
	buttons.
4.	Select the desired input or output(s) for which ties need to be viewed by
	pressing the input and output buttons.

1. To see all ties of the current configuration, press and release each input and output button, one at a time, with the Video and Audio LEDs on.

2.In view-only mode, you can view video and audio, video-only, or audio- only ties. Pressing and releasing the Video and Audio buttons toggles each on and off.

3.If, when you view video and audio ties, the Audio LED blinks and the Video LED is on after you select an input or output, the LEDs indicate that the audio ties are not the same as the video ties for that input (audio breakaway is active). Toggle the Video LED off by pressing and releasing the Video button.

4.When you enter view-only mode, the output LEDs turn on for all outputs without ties. Likewise, when an output button for which there are no ties is pushed, the output LEDs turn on for all outputs without ties. The blinking Audio LED indicates audio breakaway for one or more of those outputs.

Example 4: Viewing video and audio, audio only, and video only ties

See figure 3-8, figure 3-9, figure 3-10, and figure 3-11 and the following steps for an example of viewing the video and audio, audio-only, and video-only ties in the current configuration.

Example 4 shows the process of viewing the current configuration after the steps in Examples 1, 2, and 3 have been completed.

APress and release the Esc button. The Esc LED flashes once.

BPress and release the View button to enter view-only mode. The View LED lights.

CTo select both video and audio for viewing, if necessary, press and release the Video and Audio buttons until the Video LED and Audio LED light. With no input LED selected, all output LEDs that have no established ties light.
