7.3 Choosing the Audio-Follow-Video or Breakaway Option

You can switch stereo audio signals in one of two ways, either:

Audio-follow-video (AFV), in which all operations relate to both the

video and the audio channels; or

Breakaway, in which video and audio channels switch independently

7.3.1

Setting the Audio-Follow-Video Option

To set the Audio-follow-video (AFV) option press the AFV button:

If the AUDIO and VIDEO configurations are the same, then the AFV

button illuminates. The audio will follow the video

If the AUDIO differs from the VIDEO, then the TAKE and the AUDIO

buttons will flash. Also, the audio outputs in the STATUS 7-segment

display, which will be changed, will flash

. Press the TAKE button to

confirm the modification. The audio will follow the video

7.3.2

Setting the Breakaway Option

To set the Breakaway option:
Press either the AUDIO (for audio control only) or the VIDEO (for video

control only) button:

If the AUDIO button illuminates, switching operations relate to Audio

If the VIDEO button illuminates, switching operations relate to Video

The STATUS window displays audio or video settings, according to your

selection.

7.4 Confirming Settings

You can choose to work in the At Once or the Confirm mode. When the

VS-88HCB operates in the At Once mode, pressing an OUTPUT-INPUT

combination implements the switch immediately. In the Confirm mode, the

TAKE button must be pressed to authorize the switch.

The At Once Mode

In the At Once mode, you save time as execution is immediate and actions

require no user confirmation. However, no protection is offered against

changing an action in error.
