Viewing a configuration
The current configuration can be viewed using the front panel buttons. The
View-only mode prevents inadvertent changes to the current configuration.
View-only mode also provides a way to mute audio or RS-232 outputs (see “Muting
and unmuting audio/RS-232 outputs” on page 3-20).
View the current configuration as follows:
1 . Press the Esc button to clear any input LEDs, output LEDs, or control LEDs
that are lit.
2 . Press and release the View button. Output LEDs light for all of the outputs
that are not tied.
3 . Select video, audio, or both by pressing the Video button and/or the Audio
button.
4 . Select the desired input or output(s) whose ties you wish to view by pressing
the input and output buttons.
N • When you enter View-only mode, the output LEDs light for all outputs
without ties. Likewise, when an output button for which there are no ties is
pushed, the output LEDs turn on for all outputs without ties.
• To see all ties of the current configuration, press and release each input and
output button, one at a time, with the Video LED and the Audio LED lit.
• In View-only mode, you can view video and audio, video-only, or audio-only
ties. Pressing and releasing the Video button and the Audio button toggles
each on and off.
• After 30 seconds of front panel inactivity, View-only mode automatically
deselects.
