Synergy 4 Control Panel — Sectional View
The following are more detailed descriptions of each control panel section, as itemized in the three
illustrations above. Remember that the sections are numbered in an identical manner from switcher to
switcher.
1. System Control Group
Each switcher includes a System Control Group that is identical on all Synergy
switchers — in both appearance and function. At the center of the group is the System
Control Display , a bright LCD screen that provides a variety of menus for system set up
and operational functions. The display changes automatically , depending on certain
functions that you select on the control panel, or it can be navigated manually. Refer to
the section “
Menu System Basics ” on page 3-3 for complete instructions on using the
System Control Group .
