Operation
Front Panel Controls and Indicators
The front panel controls (figure 3-1 and figure 3-2) are grouped into two sets. The
input and output buttons,
a
and
b
, are grouped on the left side of the control
panel. The control buttons and video/audio (I/O) selection buttons,
c
and
h
, are
grouped on the right side of the panel.
N
While the number of inputs and outputs varies depending on the size of the
matrix, there are only two front panel arrangements: 16 input buttons by 16
output buttons (figure 3-1) and 32 by 32 (figure 3-2).
N On smaller matrix switchers, the larger-numbered buttons are not used for
input and output selection, although they are used to select and indicate preset
numbers, indicate the input audio level, and indicate the output audio volume.
The large, illuminated pushbuttons can be labeled with text and/or graphics. The
buttons can be set to provide amber background illumination all the time, or the
background illumination can be turned off (see “Background illumination”, on
page 3-48 ) . The buttons blink or are lit at full intensity (depending on the operation)
when selected.
