8. Managing Partitions and Signal Types
Setting Up Partitions
9 From the ‘Signal Type’ drop-down list, select a signal type for each partition, such as ‘Digital
Video’. Select the signal type on the same row listing the partition information.
Choose the signal type according to the input signal format for the partition. The signal type, in
conjunction with the switch point setup, determines the rules used by the router for switching
the signals when the operator executes a “take.” For information on setting the switch point, see
Managing Switch Point Settings
The following lists the signal type selection in the UniConfig menu and the required reference
signals. For more information on video and AES references, see your router User’s Guide.
Depending on the router, not all signal type options display. Only those signal types valid for
your router appear in the drop-down list.
Controller Output Logical number this partition starts with. Typically must
match what control system has been configured to use.
Typically 0 or 1
Signal Type
Defines what software signal type in use. Generally,
enables the matrix controller to determine correct
switching rules and reference requirements.
