3.

Select an input by pressing its button. The input button you pressed lights green.

NOTE: If your selected input already has outputs tied to it, the buttons of the tied

outputs also light green (steadily) when you press the input button.

4.

Press the button for each output that you want to tie to the selected input.

The output buttons blink green when pressed, indicating

potential ties.

The Enter button also blinks green.

NOTE: Outputs that are already tied can remain tied (buttons lit), along with your

new blinking selections; or you can untie them by pressing their associated
output buttons, which start to blink also.

5.

Press Enter to establish the tie. The input, output, and Enter buttons become unlit.

6.

Repeat steps 3 through 5 to create additional ties until the desired configuration is
complete.

NOTES:

Only one input can be tied to an output. If you tie an input to an output that is
already tied to another input, the older tie is broken in favor of the newer tie.

If you press the input button for an I/O grouped input and then try to select an
output in a different group, the associated output button cannot be selected, and
the selected input button remains lit (see

I/O Grouping

on page 26).
