Worksheets

Rather than trying to remember the configuration for each preset, use worksheets to record this information. Make copies of the blank worksheet on page 3-31 and use one for each preset configuration. Cross out all unused or inactive inputs and outputs. If applicable, use different colors for video and audio.

Worksheet example 1: System equipment

Figure 3-34 shows a worksheet for an MVX 88 in a fictional organization with the system hardware annotated. Input 6 has no connection in this organization, so it has been crossed out on the worksheet.

Inputs include PCs, an audio CD player, cameras, and an Extron VTG 300. Output devices include monitors, front and rear projectors, a stereo, and a VCR for recording presentations.

The VTG 300 video test generator connected to input 8 enables a video test pattern to be sent to one, several, or all output devices for problem isolation or adjustment purposes. An audio test tape or CD could be used in a similar manner to check out the audio components.
