Control Panel
Overview
The Control Panel on the front of all Enova DGX enclosures) is used to control system switches and system attributes. All
Enova DGX 100 Series Switcher Control Panels function the same, but have input and output key support respective to
their size.
The Control Panel has an LCD, a Function key, Control Dial, Select key, Cancel key, Take key, Input and Output keys, and
Power Indicator (FIG. 33):
The Control Dial and Select key work together for scrolling through the menu items displayed on the LCD to place the
system into various modes (the types of operations, e.g., Change Mode to execute switches) or to access lists for control
operations.
Once in the desired mode, use the Input and Output keys to select values and the Take key to execute the operations
(some modes require using the Control Dial and/or Select key to select values).
NOTE:
One of the most used functions of the Control Panel is quickly retrieving the IP address through the Control Panel’s
LCD menu (Function/Setup Options/Master Info/IP Address).

Control Keys and Dial Functions
FUNCTION Key
The Function key accesses the Function menu on the LCD.
As the Control Dial is scrolled, the menu displays the various command options, e.g., Change and Status.
The Function key can be pressed at any time to return the display to the Function menu.
For an overview of the menu options, see page 68.
SELECT Key
The Select key enters a selection. In addition, the Select key can be used to execute global presets.
However, the Select key
cannot
execute or disconnect switches. Pressing the Take key executes or disconnects
switches.
CANCEL Key
Pressing the Cancel key clears an incomplete operation and returns the display to the beginning of a sub-menu or
list.
The Cancel key
cannot
undo a completed operation, e.g., an operation followed by the pressing of the Take key or
an audio adjustment made with the Control Dial.
Note
: If the Cancel key flashes, an error has occurred; a flashing Cancel key must be pressed before continuing.
TAKE Key
The Take key functions much like the Enter key on a computer keyboard. Pressing the Take key instructs the system
to execute or disconnect a switch.
Prior to pressing the Take key, the individual operation component(s) are selected by pressing the appropriate
key(s).
Control Dial
The Control Dial scrolls through the menu options and adjusts values, such as volume.
The Control Dial is used in conjunction with the Select key to choose the commands and values on the LCD and
change virtual matrices between standard virtual matrix configurations and any custom virtual matrices.
