NOTES:
• Ties that were created before I/O groups were created remain valid, even if they
include inputs and outputs in different groups.
• For I/O groups to be meaningful (have any function), at least two groups must
be created.
• Presets can be created under serial port or Ethernet control that tie inputs and
outputs across group boundaries. These presets are selectable from the front
panel.
• An input or output can be assigned to only one group. If you assign an input
or output to a group and that input or output is already assigned to a different
group, the older grouping is discarded in favor of the new grouping.
• You can break audio away from the video for a given input or output (assigned
to different groups) by isolating only video or only audio using the front panel
RGBHV (CrossPoint) or Video (MAV Plus) button and the Audio button after you
select I/O Group mode (between steps 2 and 3).
• Audio breakaway across different groups can be confusing when you are
operating the front panel. Breakaway grouping is not displayed by the Matrix
Switchers Control Program, HTML pages, or SIS commands; and is not
recommended (breakaway ties, once created, are displayed).
• Ties between groups (an input in group 1 tied to an output in group 2) can be
created under serial port or Ethernet control.
