Input Selection
The MGP Pro front panel contains a set of four input buttons that enable you to select RGB,
HD component video, S-video, or composite video inputs for windows 1 through 4. On DI
and 3G-SDI models, these buttons can select the HDMI or SDI input.
The front panel also contains 15 virtual input buttons that enable you to select only
component video, S-video, or composite video inputs.
Selecting an Input
Before you can select an input, you must first select a window, as follows:
1.
Press the Window Select button for the window in which you want the input to be
displayed.
2.
Press the button for the input you want to display.
For example:
If you have a computer connected to input 1 and you want to display
the computer output in window 4, press Window Select button 4, then press input
button 1.
Muting an Input
To mute the currently selected input (turn off its signal and close the window on the display),
press its Input button again. The button backlight blinks continuously, which indicates that
the input is muted.
When an input is muted or unmuted, the currently selected transition effect (cut, wipe, or
dissolve), if any, is used to close or open the window on the output display (see
on page 25 for information on transition effects).
To unmute the input, press its button again. The button backlight stops flashing and returns
to a steady light.
