8. Managing Partitions and Signal Types

Setting Up Partitions

5 Select the ‘Main -Expanded’ radio button in the ‘Expansion’ section. This sets the control card

on the router as the master (or main) control card controlling all slave routers and expands the
‘Expansion’ section:

6 For ‘Local Inputs’ and ‘Outputs’, enter a ‘Start’ and ‘End’ number in the corresponding fields.

The inputs are the total number of signals for all routers. In this example, the NV7512 can man-
age 512 x 512 and is connected to a second 512 x 512 router. This means that the router
receives a total of 1,024 inputs: 512 from the local inputs and 512 from the connected router.
However, the router only distributes local outputs, for a total of 512.

The following lists the maximum number of inputs and outputs for the master router:
