Creating a Set of Ties

You can create a set of ties, changing the current configuration, by using the front panel buttons. Change the current configuration as follows:

1.Select video, audio, or both to configure by pressing the I/O button as necessary.

2.Select the desired input and one or more outputs by pressing the input and output buttons.

3.Press and release the Enter button.

4.Repeat steps 1 through 3 to create additional ties until the desired configuration is complete.

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

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

• Output LEDs light when an input is selected to indicate current ties. Press and release the associated output buttons to clear unwanted outputs.

• If, when you are configuring video and audio ties, the Audio LED blinks and the Video LED is on after you have selected an input or output, the LEDs indicate audio breakaway, meaning that the audio ties are not the same as the video ties for that input.

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

• As each output is selected, the associated output LED blinks to indicate a tentative tie until you press the Enter button or the 5-second timeout expires. 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.

• If you inadvertently press the wrong input or output button, wait approximately 5 seconds. The input and output button selections time out and are abandoned.

Example 1: Create a set of video and audio ties

In the following example, input 5 is tied to outputs 3, 4, and 8. The example shows the front panel indications that result from your actions.

NOTE: This example assumes that there are no ties in the current configuration.

1.Select video and audio for the tie: If necessary, press and release the I/O button to cycle through the selections until the both LEDs light.

Press the button.
