Choosing the Audio-Follow-Video or Breakaway Option

You can switch stereo audio signals in one of two ways, either:
• Audio-follow-video (AFV), in which all operations relate to both the

video and the audio channels; or

• Breakaway, in which video and audio channels switch independently

• If the AUDIO and VIDEO configurations are the same, then the AFV

button illuminates. The audio follows the video.

• If the AUDIO differs from the VIDEO, then the TAKE and the AUDIO

buttons flash. Also, the audio outputs, which are changed, flash
