7 . In the MGP 462 Input #2 menu, select the matrix switcher output that is
connected to the MGP input 2.
8 . Click Take. Two event scripts are created on the MGP that continually
monitor the input/output ties on the matrix switcher for the two outputs
defined in steps 6 and 7.
• The event scripts are programs that cause the MGP to continue
monitoring the matrix switcher, whether or not the control software or
the Sync tool is open.
• If a new tie is made to the defined outputs, the preset for the new input is
recalled.
To mask any glitches on the video output, set the RGB delay on the matrix
switcher to 1.0 seconds or greater. Refer to the user’s manual for your
switcher for the procedure.
To stop monitoring the ties on the switcher, click the Remove Sync Files button on
the Sync window. The event script files are removed from the MGP and sync
monitoring stops. (This does not cause input presets to be lost.)
