Viewing the Configuration

The current configuration (all active ties) can be viewed using the front panel buttons as follows:

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

2.Press and release an input or output button.

a.Press and release an input button — All of the buttons for outputs that are tied to the selected input light. If the Audio LED is flashing, it indicates that there are audio-only ties (audio breakaway).

NOTE: Allow the 5-second timeout to deselect the input buttons before

you select an output button. If an input button is still selected, the indications will not be as described and you may inadvertently establish

potential ties that could be created by pressing the Enter button.

b.Press and release an output button — The button for the tied input and all of the buttons for outputs that are also tied to the same input light. If the Audio LED is flashing, it indicates that there are audio-only ties (audio breakaway).

NOTE: To see all ties of the current configuration, press and release each input

or output button, one at a time, with the Video LED and the Audio LED

lit.

3.After approximately 5 seconds, the LEDs for the input and tied outputs go out.

NOTE: Examples 4 and 5 assume that you have performed example 1, example 2,

and example 3.

Example 4: View ties by selecting an input

In the following example, the video and audio, audio-only, and video-only ties in the current configuration are viewed by selecting an input. The example shows the front panel indications that result from your actions.

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

Press the button.
