8.105. MMUTE -- Mute Crosspoint in Main Matrix or Submatrix

This command sets or queries the mute status of one or more crosspoints in either the main matrix or one of the EF Bus submatrices.

This command is a matrix boolean command. See Section 6.4 and Section 6.1 for more information on this type of command.

This command is saved to non-volatile memory only as part of a preset. The state of this command will be restored after power-up only if a preset is saved and that preset is set to be the power-on preset.
