Mono Signals
The ‘XY/Mono’ tab appears only for the NV5100, NV5128, NV7256, NV7256-Plus, and NV7512

ber and click Read Outputs. UniConfig displays the selected outputs in the diagnostic cross-
point list. Note that there are ‘Mono’, ‘Phys’, and ‘Chnl’ columns for both inputs and outputs.

put number in the ‘Single Take’ section and click Execute Mono.
Or, enter a physical input and a physical output number in the ‘Physical Mono Take’ section

submodes:
Reverse, Forward, Broadcast, Data X/Y
