Front panel familiarization
An overview of the Model 708A front panel operation is giv-
en in the following paragraphs. The front panel switches are
shown in Figure 3-1. The front panel of the Model 708A ac-
cepts plug-in matrix cards when configured for front panel
matrix card installation (refer to paragraph 2.2). When con-
figured for rear panel matrix card installation, the front panel
contains the analog backplane. Figure 3-2 illustrates setup
data transfers within the Model 708A.
All front panel keys except POWER are momentary-contact
membrane switches. The COPY key has an LED indicating the
copy function. When the LED is lit, any changes made to the
crosspoint display will be immediately copied to the relays.
CAUTION
When changing setups, use caution
when the COPY key is enabled (the cor-
responding LED will be lit). Accidental
connections may be copied to the relays
causing instrument damage.
