Definitions
The following terms apply to Extron Matrix Switchers, and are used throughout
this manual:
Tie — An input-to-output connection.
Set of ties — An input tied to two or more outputs. (An output can never be tied
to more than one input.)
Configuration — May consist of one tie or one or more sets of ties.
Current configuration — The configuration that is currently being used (also
called configuration 0).
Global memory preset — A configuration that has been stored. The Matrix 12800
can support up to 64 global presets. When a global preset is retrieved from
memory, it becomes the current configuration.
Room — A Room consists of a smaller subset of virtual outputs that are logically
related to each other, as determined by the operator. The Matrix 12800
supports up to 32 rooms, each of which consists of from 1 to 16 virtual
outputs.
Room memory preset — A configuration consisting of virtual outputs in a single
room that has been stored. When a room preset is retrieved from memory,
it becomes the current configuration. The Matrix 12800 supports up to 10
room presets per room. Selecting a room preset only changes the ties to
outputs that are assigned to that room. All other ties outside the room are not
affected.
