1Program input selection buttons — Allow the system operator to view the image switch as it happens.

Freeze — Locks the output display to the image that is currently displayed

on the program output. When the freeze function is enabled, the button is lit.

To unfreeze the image, press the Freeze button.

If an image is frozen when a different input button on the same row (program or preview) is selected or if the unit loses power, the image unfreezes.
