The audio/RS-232 TP input settings (RS-232 or audio) are protected when front

panel

Lock mode 2 is selected. You can view the settings in Lock mode 2 but

you cannot change them from the front panel. See “Setting the front panel locks
(

Executive modes)” on page 3-40.

The switcher is compatible with MTPs that transmit and receive mono audio and

those that transmit and receive RS-232 serial data. You must configure the switcher

for the appropriate audio/RS-232 input for each TP input. Each TP input’s audio/

RS-232 settings can be viewed and changed from the front panel.
