Operation
Input Selection Buttons
The three buttons with corresponding LEDs on the front panel (labeled Mode or 1, Normal or
2, and Auto or 3) manually select inputs 1 through 3 and enable different operating modes. The
LEDs light to indicate the active input and provide feedback.
Input selection
Press the input selection button that corresponds with desired rear panel input connector to
activate that input signal.
Front panel lockout mode (executive mode)
Push and hold input buttons 1, 2, and 3 simultaneously for 5 seconds to enable or disable front panel configuration. All of the front panel LEDs
blink 3 times. In executive mode, contact closure and RS-232 control are still available.
Auto switch mode
Press and hold input buttons 1 and 3 simultaneously for 3 seconds. After releasing the buttons, the Auto Switch LED lights to indicate that auto
switch mode is enabled. This prioritizes the highest numbered active input.
NOTE: Setting auto switch mode to prioritize the lowest numbered active input can be done only with SIS commands (see the
FOX T USW 203 User Guide for more details).
Normal switch mode
Press and hold inputs 1 and 2 simultaneously for 3 seconds. After releasing the buttons, the Auto Switch LED turns off to indicate that auto switch
mode is disabled. This is the default mode.
Remote Control
The FOX T USW 203 can be controlled through the Extron FOX Extenders Control Software, SIS commands, remote RS-232, or a contact closure
device (see
Step 2 - Making Connections for connection details).
Install the FOX Extenders Control Software on a computer running a Windows ® operating system. The control program can be installed from the
Extron Software Products DVD or downloaded from the Extron website, www.extron.com (see the
FOX T USW 203 User Guide).
