•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 that input’s LED 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 output(s) 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.
