DXP HD 4K Series • Operation

Powering On
Apply power by connecting the provided IEC power cord to the rear panel IEC connector
and to an AC source. The switcher performs a self-test as follows:
•
DXP 1616 series
— The front panel buttons blink green, red, and amber, then turn off.
An error-free power-up self-test sequence leaves all I/O and control buttons either unlit
or showing background illumination.
•
DXP 88 series
— The front panel input, output, and I/O button LEDs blink red, then
green, while the control button LEDs blink green. All LEDs turn off except the I/O
buttons, which remain lit red for several seconds. An error-free self-test ends with only
one of the I/O LEDs lit, reflecting the previous selection of audio or video.
The current configuration, EDID information, and all presets are saved in memory. When
power is applied, the most recent configuration is retrieved. The previous presets remain
intact. The switcher powers up in full power mode (neither power save mode enabled).
If an error occurs during the self-test, the DXP locks up and does not operate. If this occurs,
call the
Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline
(see the last page of this guide for
contact information in your area).
Creating or Changing a Configuration
A configuration consists of one or more inputs, each tied to a set of one or more outputs.

While an input can be tied to multiple outputs, an output can be tied to only one
input.
