Creating Local Presets
A local preset is a predetermined collection of switches (on the same virtual
matrix) to be routed simultaneously. Executing a local preset affects only those
inputs and outputs specified, not the whole system. Local presets are defined
using X
N
Connect and can be executed using BCS commands entered as part of a
macro in APControl 3.0 or APWeb or entered in a terminal emulation program.
Local presets can also be executed on a remote control panel, if the panel
supports them. The process for creating local presets involves three dialog boxes
that cover managing, naming, and modifying presets.
The instructions below are for creating a local preset. For detailed information on
creating, modifying, and deleting local presets, see the X
N
Connect Help file.
To create a new preset:
1. In the Virtual Matrices view, right-click the virtual matrix the preset will be
created for and select Manage Local Presets from the shortcut menu.
The Manage Local Presets dialog box opens.
2. Click the Name New button.
The Name New Preset dialog box opens.
3. Optional – Enter a different preset number (local presets do not need to be
numbered sequentially).
4. Enter a name for the new preset.
