Controlling the Switcher
Front Panel Buttons and Indicators
The following Front Panel Controls are used to operate the System 8/10 P LUS .
Power indicator – Lights to indicate System 8/10 P LUS switcher input power is On.
This LED also blinks when the optional IR-30 remote receiver is detecting a
signal from the transmitter.
Display Power Button – This button is used to turn the projector ON or OFF. To
turn the projector ON, press this button down until it flashes on, then off,
(approximately two seconds) and then release the button. Some projectors take
a few seconds to initialize. For those projectors, the Display Power button will
flash to prevent any communications during the initialization period. This flashing
can last from 8 to 35 seconds. To turn OFF the projector, press and hold the
button down until it flashes off, then on (approximately two seconds). This two
second delay provides a safety factor so the projector is not turned off by
accidentally touching this button.
Display Mute Button – The Video Mute button is similar to a “Projector Mute” or
“Pause” button typically found on the projector remote control. This button mutes
(blanks) the projector display, but does not actually turn the projector off. Press
to mute the video display. The button lights to indicate Display Mute mode has
been selected and the projector display is blanked. Press the button again to
restore the video image.
RGB Mute – Pressing this button interrupts the picture (RGB) to the display device,
but not the sync. Pressing the button again restores the picture without flicker.
Audio Mute – Press to mute the audio. The button lights to indicate audio mute
mode has been selected. Press again to restore the audio. The button light then
goes out.
Input Select Buttons – Press to select video input. (System 8 has buttons 1-8 and
System 10 has 1-10.) Each button lights when its input is selected. Only one
input can be selected at one time. These buttons flash to indicate that audio only
is selected from that input (Breakaway).
Infrared Receiver – The lower left corner of the front panel has the receiver lens for
the infrared (IR System Remote) control. Although the lens is there, it will not
operate if the option is not installed. See page B-5 for installation procedures and
B-6 for IR operation.
Infrared Remote Transmitter – This remote control transmits commands to the
Infrared Receiver described above.
