Front panel security lockout (executive mode)

The front panel security lockout limits the operation of the TPX matrix switcher
from the front panel. When the switcher is locked, all of the front panel functions
are disabled except for the view-only mode functions. See Viewing a configuration
on page 3-13. Other than in view-only mode, if the user pushes a front panel
button when the switcher is locked, the button blinks twice and the switcher does
not otherwise respond to the user’s front panel operations.

To toggle the front panel lock on or off, press and hold the Enter and Esc buttons
for approximately three seconds (figure 3-44). The Enter LED blinks to indicate the
lock’s state change. Release the Enter and Esc buttons. To toggle the front panel
lock state again, press and hold the Enter and Esc buttons again.
