Board Configuration:
A PATHFINDER can have up to six boards: red board, green board, blue board, sync board, audio left
board and audio right board. Boards can be assigned as a group and controlled together, with up to six
groups definable by the user. Each group is treated as an independent switcher within the unit, and can even
have its own unique number of Inputs and Outputs. The factory default is to have all boards assigned to
Group 1.
One of the most common uses of assigning multiple groups is to switch audio independent of video. This
can be accomplished by assigning boards 1 to 4 (red, green, blue and sync boards) to Group 1, and boards 5
and 6 (audio left and right boards) to Group 2. Now, Group 1 and Group 2 can be switched independent of
each other.
To access the Board Configuration section, you must hold down the number 2 button while turning the unit
on. The following screen will appear:
