SWITCHERS

5

The front panel of the 

MX2416RM

 provides access

to essentially all of the switcher’s capabilities. In
addition to standard switching functions, the unit has
control and switching functions that could be very
useful in a variety of special applications.

4.1 SELECT INPUT

When buttons 1 through 6 are pressed, the
corresponding INPUT will be selected and
displayed. LED’s on the front and rear panel will
light simultaneously to indicate which selection has
been made.

4.2 AUTO SWITCH MODE BUTTON

This function is non-operational at this time and is
reserved for future upgrades.

4.3 STAND BY / ALL CHANNELS OFF BUTTON

This function allows a user to turn OFF all input
signals. It is very useful when the 

MX2416RM

Switcher is used in applications where there is a
need to turn the display or the source OFF. Press
this function key (F2) to switch to a no signal
condition. The LED next to the F2 function key will
light to indicate that the switcher is in this mode. To

resume input select switching, simply press the
desired INPUT.

4.4 RESET BUTTON

This function allows a user to RESET the switcher
without unplugging the unit. Press the function key
RESET (F3) and hold it for 2 seconds. When you
hear a beeping sound, release the key. All of the
LED’s will flash simultaneously. The switcher is
now reset. All previous defaults, such as power on
channel default and other user settings are
maintained.

4.5 BEEP ON/OFF BUTTON

This function allows a user to have audible
feedback when buttons are pressed. The factory
default is beep ON; however, in some applications,
sound may be undesirable. To disable sound,
press this function key (F4) and hold it for
approximately 2 seconds until a beeping sound is
heard. The function is now disabled. To enable it,
repeat the same steps. The setting is stored in the
memory and is maintained during power up
sequence.
