In Separate Switcher mode this command has the additional function of switching audio inputs to the program output when it is entered more than once.

In Separate Switcher mode, selected audio input from one of the three input groups can be routed to the program audio output. This selected input and group is indicated by a flashing input LED. The LEDs of the two remaining, unselected groups (inputs) are steadily lit.

To route a different audio input within the same input group to the program audio output, enter the command

X1 * X2 !. The new input’s LED flashes. To route an audio input from a different group to the program audio, enter the command once if the input is already active and its LED is steadily lit, or enter it twice if the input is not active and its LED is off. The LED for the new input within the new group flashes.
