Defi nitions
Tie — An input-to-output connection.
Set of ties — An input tied to 2 or more outputs.
Confi guration — One or more ties or sets of ties.
Current confi guration — The currently active
confi guration (also called confi guration 0).
Global preset — A confi guration that has been
stored. One global preset can be assigned
to each input button. When a global preset
is retrieved from memory, it becomes the
current confi guration
.
Front Panel Controls
Input and output buttons select inputs and
outputs. Output buttons light amber to
indicate video and audio ties. The buttons
light green to indicate video-only ties. The
buttons light red to indicate audio-only ties.
Input and output buttons also select presets.
The output buttons also display the selected
input’s audio level.
The input buttons also display the selected
output’s volume level.
Enter button saves changes.
Preset button saves a confi guration as a preset or
recalls a previously-defi ned preset.
View button selects a view-only mode that
prevents inadvertent confi guration changes.
On audio models, View decrements the level
and volume. See Viewing and adjusting the
audio level on QS-2.
