Definitions
The following Extron matrix switcher terms are used throughout this guide:
Tie — An input-to-output connection
Set of ties — An input tied to two or more outputs.
NOTE: An output can never be tied to more than one input.
Configuration — One or more ties or one or more sets of ties
Current configuration — The configuration that is currently active in the switcher (also
called configuration 0)
Global memory preset — A configuration that has been stored. Up to 32 global memory
presets can be stored in memory. Preset locations are assigned to the input buttons and
(where necessary) output buttons. When a preset is retrieved from memory, it becomes the
current configuration.
All models have 32 presets; on models with fewer than 32 input and output buttons, preset
numbers that are too high to be available from the front panel are still accessible under serial
port or Ethernet control.
Room — A subset of outputs that are logically related to each other, as determined by the
operator. The switchers support up to 10 rooms, each of which can consist of anywhere
from 1 to 16 outputs.
Room memory preset — A configuration consisting of outputs in a single room that
has been stored. When a room preset is retrieved from memory, it becomes the current
configuration.
