Advanced Configuration:
Modifying Virtual Matrices
Applicability Notice:
This appendix applies to X
N
Connect version 2.4.0.
Your AMX AutoPatch Distribution Matrix is pre-configured at the factory. It is
ready to switch once the source and destination devices are attached. The
configuration file does
not
need any advanced modification unless you change
the hardware or want to change or add virtual matrices. Any new equipment for
upgrading an existing system will be shipped from the factory along with a new
configuration file to be loaded onto the system.
We strongly recommend using
the new file instead of attempting to modify the existing configuration file to
accommodate the new equipment.
Important:
If making any modifications other than customizing channel
names, creating local presets, or changing remote control panel passwords,
provide technical support with a copy of the modified .xcl file for future
support.
If your configuration file needs any type of additional advanced modification, we
strongly recommend
contacting technical support (see page 7-3) to request a
modified file or ask for assistance.
Caution:
Virtual matrix modifications are an advanced feature of X
N
Connect
that should
not
be attempted unless you are extremely familiar with X
N
Connect
and the AMX AutoPatch Distribution Matrix being configured.
Three advanced virtual matrix related tasks are covered in this chapter:
ä
Joining (combining) virtual matrices
ä
Creating breakaway virtual matrices
ä
Creating a new virtual matrix
Important
:
Save a backup copy of the existing configuration file if you find it
necessary to modify the file for any reason.
