Disconnecting Switches
Disconnecting a switch deactivates the connection between an input (source) and one or more output (destination)
devices. Disconnecting an input will disconnect all outputs currently receiving the input's signal. An output can only be
connected to one input; therefore, disconnecting an output will only disconnect the connection between the output and
the input that is routed to it. Inputs and outputs can be selected in the same disconnect command.
Disconnect inputs or outputs from the Control Panel using the steps below. If you need to change the virtual matrix, see
“Changing the Virtual Matrix” on page 134.
Note:
When you put the panel in Disconnect Mode, the available keys will be illuminated in blue and any
unavailable ones will not be illuminated. When you select a blue key, it turns white. You can toggle the keys
between the selected (white) and unselected (blue) state before pressing the Take Key. An example is
provided in FIG. 81 on page 130.
Once the Control Panel is in Disconnect Mode, inputs and outputs can be selected and unselected by pressing the
corresponding Input and Output Keys. The disconnect command is not executed until the Take Key is pressed. Pressing
the Cancel Key clears an incomplete disconnect command and returns the display to the beginning of the submenu.
While in Disconnect Mode, the Control Panel will not show current routing for the inputs and outputs that are selected.
The example on the following page disconnects Inputs 1 and 3 and all outputs connected to them as well as
Output 9.
To disconnect inputs and outputs:
1.
Press the Function Key.
The Function menu appears.
2.
Locate Disconnect by scrolling with the Control Dial.
3.
Press the Select Key.
The system is in Disconnect Mode (all the available Input and Output Keys turn blue).
4.
Press Input Keys 1 and 3 and Output Key 9.
The keys turn white indicating that they are selected.
5.
Press the Take Key.
Inputs 1 and 3 (and all outputs connected to them) and Output 9 are disconnected as soon as the Take Key is pressed
and the keys turn blue.
6.
Make additional disconnects.
Or
Press the Function Key to return to the Function menu.
Caution:
Disconnecting an input disconnects all outputs receiving that source signal even if a specific
output(s) is selected at the same time.
