A hard reset returns the switcher to the default (factory) firmware configuration.

The switcher continues to operate using this firmware until you either cycle
power, in which case the switcher begins to use the most-recently installed
firmware update, or install a new firmware update.

Optimizing the Audio

Each individual input audio level can be adjusted within a range of -18 dB to

+24 dB, so there are no noticeable volume differences between sources and for the

best headroom and signal-to-noise ratio. Adjust the audio gain and attenuation as

follows:

1

.

Connect audio sources to all desired inputs and connect the audio outputs to

output devices such as audio players. See “Audio connections”, in chapter 2,

“Installation”. For best results, wire all of the inputs and the outputs as

balanced.

2

.

Power on the audio sources, the switcher, and the audio players.

3

.

Switch among the inputs (see “Creating a configuration”, on page 3-8),

listening to the audio with a critical ear or measuring the output audio level

with test equipment, such as a VU meter.

4

.

As necessary, adjust the input audio level of each input (see “Viewing and

adjusting the input audio level”, on page 3-25) so that the approximate

output level is the same for all selected inputs.

5

.

As necessary, adjust the output audio level of each input (see “Viewing and

adjusting the output volume”, on page 3-30).
