Fiber Matrix 6400 Switcher • Operation
Using presets
The current configuration (configuration 0) can be saved as a preset in any one
of 64 preset memory addresses. Presets can be saved and recalled from the front
panel. The preset locations are assigned to input buttons 1 through 64. When a
preset is retrieved from memory, it becomes the current configuration .
N • Presets cannot be viewed from the front panel unless recalled as the current
configuration. Presets can be viewed using Extron’s Windows-based control
program. See chapter 5, “Matrix Software”, for more details.
• The current configuration and all presets are stored in non-volatile memory.
When power is removed and restored, the current configuration is still active
and all presets are retained.
• When a preset is recalled, it replaces the current configuration, which is lost
unless it is also stored as a preset. The recalled preset overwrites all of the
current configuration ties in favor of the preset configuration ties.
