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.

5.

Repeat steps 1 through 4 to create or delete additional ties until the desired
configuration is complete.

NOTES:

Only one video input and one audio input can be tied to an output.

If a tie is made between an input and an output, and the selected output

was previously tied to another input, the older tie is broken in favor of
the newer tie.

If an input with no tie is selected, only the button for that input lights.

As each input and output is selected, the associated output button blinks

to indicate a tentative tie. Buttons for outputs that were already tied to
the input light steadily. Outputs that are already tied can be left on, along
with new blinking selections, or toggled off by pressing the associated
output button.

When the Video button and the Audio button are lit, if an input with an

audio tie but no video tie is selected, the button for the input and the
button for the output light the appropriate color (amber, green, or red).

If you press the input button for an input that is I/O grouped (see “

I/O

grouping

”), you cannot select the output button for an output in a

different group. The associated input button remains lit.
