SECTION 3. OPERATION
3.1 INTRODUCTION
This section explains in detail the operation of the MediaFlex Series using
either the front panel pushbutton switches, the IR remote control, or the RS232
port.
3.2 CONNECTIONS
Connect audio, video, and VGA sources as described in section 2. There is no
requirement that all inputs or outputs be used or terminated, but be sure that all
outputs which are used are properly terminated.
Outputs should not be looped back to unused inputs.
3.3 CONTROL VIA THE FRONT PANEL SWITCHES
POWER: The front panel power button has two levels of operation: ON and
STANDBY. In STANDBY the displays will be off, but the crosspoint connections
are held as long as power is being received by the MediaFlex Series. If power is
lost, the previous crosspoint conditions will return after power is restored. Gener-
ally it is best to have the displays ON while controlling the MediaFlex Series.
ZONE LOCK: Zone Lock allows for one-button operation of the MediaFlex
Series. If Zone Lock is ON the LED in the lower center of the front panel will be lit
and the selected ZONE will appear in the left display window. If Zone Lock is OFF
the LED will be dark. To turn Zone Lock on, push the FUNCTION button in (lower
right corner) and then push the 1 button; then select the zone to lock to (usually
the local zone, ZONE 1) by pushing one of the buttons 1-16. To unlock a zone, just
push the FUNCTION button down and then push the 1 button.
