8.1.1 Viewing the Display
Figure 21 shows the output-input cross-points on the LCD display. The LCD
display can only show 13 of the 32 input/output combinations.
To view the full contents of the display, shift the contents of the display to the
right or to the left, via the
or the
buttons on the front panel, respectively.
This function is enabled when:
•
The switcher is in between operations (waiting for its next operation while
all previous operations are completed or cancelled
)
•
Viewing or recalling a setup using the
or
buttons prior to it execution
When entering an OUT IN combination, the contents of the LCD display
automatically shift to indicate the current status of the selected output.
8.2 Using the Keypad Buttons
Since the
VS-3232A
has 32 inputs and outputs (and up to 59 setups that can
be recalled), it can handle two digit numbers as well as one digit numbers (for
numbers under 10). When entering a one-digit number (for example 5), you
can either press 0 followed by 5 or 5 followed by ENT.
The number 00 (or 0, ENT) is relevant for the input only and is used to
disconnect the currently entered output number from the input.
The ESC button is used to cancel an operation without affecting the current
status of the switcher. For example, if a wrong number is entered, press the
ESC button to cancel the operation. The ESC button can also be used for
canceling a store/recall operation or to exit the setup menu at any stage.
8.3 Confirming Actions
You can choose to work in the At Once (the default
1
) or the Confirm mode.
In the At Once mode (the TAKE button is not illuminated):
•
Pressing an
OUT-IN combination implements the switch immediately
•
You save time as execution is immediate and actions require no user
confirmation
•
No protection is offered to correct an erroneous action
