Section 2— Startup and Configuration
There are circumstances where output routing is not desirable. For example, the DPM may have more than 5 channels. In that case, a router or patch panel may be inserted between the switcher and Kaleidoscope (Figure 2-4). In this example, switcher output routing is turned off, so the menu selection for CHANNEL ROUTING in the DPM Setup Menu should be set to SWR IN. This still provides the return video from the switcher being on a consistent crosspoint.Figure 2-4. Example of Connections Using an External RouterKaleidoscope
