• To create a tie, drag a line from an input node ( ) to one or more output nodes
or right-click an input node and select Connect To All Outputs.

N Video and audio ties between the low resolution video input group and the low
resolution video output group are always made with the audio redirected. In
such an operation, the switcher automatically ties the audio to an output in the
computer video/audio outputs group (outputs 1 through 6) as follows:

If the video is tied to output 7, the audio is tied to output 1.

If the video is tied to output 8, the audio is tied to output 2.

If the video is tied to output 9, the audio is tied to output 3.

If the video is tied to output 10, the audio is tied to output 4.

If the video is tied to output 11, the audio is tied to output 5.

If the video is tied to output 12, the audio is tied to output 6.
