Windows buttons, drop boxes, and trash

The buttons, drop boxes, and trash can on the right side of the program window perform the following functions:

Power — Unavailable for CrossPoint 450 Plus and MAV Plus switchers, because the switcher power cannot be controlled via software.

Executive mode — Allows you to lock out front panel operations, except for the view-only mode functions.

Room menu — Displays a list of up to 10 rooms. You can select a room from the list to display it in the window.

Presets menu — Displays a list of up to 64 global presets and up to 100 room presets (10 rooms x 10 presets per room). You can select a preset from the list to display it in the window and either activate it (Go) or delete it (Delete).

Go — Activates the selected preset as the current configuration.
