CHAPTER 8:

MESSAGE PROMPTS

8.1INTRODUCTION

The MAXPRO-Net Crosspoint Matrix Video Switching System creates an interactive environment for the system operators. Using the keyboard, an operator is able to communicate and control the video system.

The system will also communicate with the operator using text message prompts. These are displayed on the operator's currently selected monitor. These message prompts are designed to confirm selection and control actions as well as to help the operator understand why a particular action or function may not have occurred as expected.

The message prompts have been grouped into several tables. Refer to the appropriate table to quickly locate the message prompt explanation required.
