The CONFIG menu permits setting the configuration parameters for external
crossbars.
The menu is divided into two parts.
active operation active crossbar control
In this case an external crossbar output (max. 6) can
be switched immediately upstream of the switcher
operation. Operation of the external crossbar as with
Aux bus. The delegation to external buses is made
with the EXT AUX key.
passive operation passive crossbar control
In this case an external crossbar output (max. 6) is
coupled to one of the internal crossbar buses of the
switcher.
The OUT XBAR line permits entering the desired output number of the external
crossbar to be switched by the external Aux bus.
Admissible output numbers are 0 ... 127.
The Prerouter line serves to indicate with ”Yes/No” if the corresponding output of
the external crossbar is selected as source in the IDENT INPUT menu. For further
details please refer to Ident Input menu.
The Coupled to line permits entering an internal switcher bus. In this case the
external crossbar is coupled to an internal switcher bus. Repeated pressing of the
COUPLE softkey scrolls through the various buses available in the switcher.
Note: In active operation and enabled ”coupling” only the external cross-
bar is coupled. The direct switching of sources on the external
crossbar with separate crossbar control panel does not have any
effect on the internal switcher buses.
