Definitions
The following terms, which apply to all Extron matrix switchers, are used
throughout this manual:
Tie —
An input-to-output connection
Set of ties —
An input
tied
to two or more outputs. (An output can never be tied
to more than one input.)
Configuration —
One or more
ties
or one or more
sets of ties
Current configuration —
The
configuration
that is currently active in the
switcher (also called
“configuration 0”
)
Global memory preset —
A
configuration
that has been stored. Up to 32
global
memory presets
can be stored in memory. Preset locations are assigned
to the input buttons and output buttons. When a
preset
is retrieved from
memory, it becomes the
current configuration
.
The switchers have 32 presets. On the MVX 128 VGA A, up to 20 presets
can be selected from the front panel for either saving or retrieving. Preset
numbers larger than 20 are accessible via serial port control.
