Extron electronic MPX 866 A manual Creating a Configuration

Creating a Configuration

The current configuration can be changed using the front panel buttons. Change the current configuration as follows:

1.Press the Esc button to clear any input LEDs, output LEDs, or control LEDs that may be lit.

2.Select to configure video, audio, or both by pressing the Video button and Audio button.

3.Select the desired input and outputs by pressing the input and output buttons.

To indicate potential ties, output LEDs blink when an output is selected but not tied to the input.

To indicate current ties, output LEDs light steadily when an input is tied to the output.

To clear unwanted outputs, press and release the output buttons associated with the lit LEDs. To indicate potential unties, output LEDs blink when an output is deselected but not untied from the input.

4.Press and release the Enter button to accept the tie or to break an existing tie.

5.Repeat steps 1 through 4 to create additional ties until the desired configuration is complete.

NOTES: • Video ties cannot be made between the computer video group and the

low resolution video group.

• Audio ties can only be made to the computer video and audio subgroup

(outputs 1 through 6).

• Video and audio ties between the low resolution video input subgroup and the low resolution video output subgroup are made with the audio automatically redirected. In such an operation, the switcher automatically ties the audio to an output in the computer video and audio outputs subgroup (outputs 1 through 6) as follows.

If the video is tied to output:	The audio is tied to output:
7	1
8	2
9	3
10	4
11	5
12	6

• If video is selected for configuration (the Video LED is lit) and you press the input button for an input in one group and then try to select an output in the other group, the associated output button cannot be selected. The associated input LED remains lit.

• Only one video input and one audio input can be tied to an output.

• If a tie is made in which the selected output was previously tied to another input, the older tie is broken in favor of the newer tie.

• If an input with no tie is selected, only the LED for that input lights.

• When the Video and Audio LEDs are lit, if an input with an audio tie but no video tie is selected, the LED for the input lights and the output LED and I/O Audio LEDs blink.

• As each input and output is selected, the associated output LED blinks to indicate a tentative tie. LEDs for outputs that were already tied to the input light steadily. Outputs that are already tied can be left on, along with new blinking selections, or toggled off by pressing the associated output button.
