Mapping Virtual Sources
Certain A/V receivers use virtual sources, which require mapping on the A/V receiver
itself (and not through the Crestron Pyng system) to map switching commands to
connectors. For these A/V receivers, the source selections on the handheld remote are
mapped to a physical connection on the back of the receiver using the receiver's web-
based or on-screen configuration interface.
Receivers that use virtual mapping behave in the Crestron Pyng system as follows:
•
The source selections in the Crestron Pyng system mimic the selections on the
handheld remote.
•
The receiver's physical connectors (such as HDMI) will always be labeled as
“GenericAV” in the Crestron Pyng interface. This is done to allow the mapping in
the receiver to be changed without requiring an update to the Crestron Pyng
interface.
For example, if a Blu-ray Disc player source is mapped to the Component 1 input, and the
mapping was changed to use the HDMI 1 input instead, the Blu-ray Disc player is still
selected as the source in the Crestron Pyng interface. The connection label will show
GenericAV even though the connector has been changed to HDMI 1.
Additionally, if a Sonos CONNECT is mapped to the Audio In 5 (CD) input, and the
mapping was changed to use the Optical 1 (CD) input instead, the Sonos CONNECT is
still selected as the audio source in the Crestron Pyng interface. The connection label will
show GenericAV even though the connector has been changed to Optical 1 (CD).
