Creating a configuration
The current configuration can be changed using the front panel buttons. Change
the current configuration as follows:
1. Press the Esc button to clear any input button indicators, output button
indicators, or control button indicators that may be lit.
2. Select video, audio, or both for configuration by pressing the Video button
and/or Audio button.
3. Select the desired input and output(s) by pressing the input and output
buttons.
Input buttons and output buttons light or blink amber to indicate video
and audio ties, green to indicate video only ties, and red to indicate audio
only ties.
To indicate potential ties, output buttons blink the appropriate color
when an input is selected.
To indicate current ties, output buttons light steadily the appropriate
color when an input is selected.
To clear unwanted outputs, press and release the associated lit output
buttons. To indicate potential unties, output buttons blink the
appropriate color when an output is deselected but not untied from the
input.
4. Press and release the Enter button to accept the tie or to break an existing tie.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 to create or clear additional ties until the desired
configuration is complete.
