Appendix B – Managing Configuration Files

Applicability Notice

This appendix applies to XNConnect version 2.12.3. XNConnect software’s version information is found under its Help
menu.
This appendix covers the following general information on using XNConnect configuration software and basic
modifications for customizing the configuration:



Installing XNConnect (page 191)



Discovering a system (page 191)



Opening an .xcl configuration file (page 193)



Navigating the interface (page 194)



Setting the Control Panel password (page 195)



Creating local presets (page 196)



Loading an .xcl configuration file (page 198)

For complete coverage of XNConnect including modifying virtual matrices and hardware, see the XNConnect Help file.
If your configuration file needs any type of advanced modification, we

strongly

recommend

contacting technical support

to request a modified .xcl file or ask for assistance.

Standard Virtual Matrices and XNConnect

The standard virtual matrix for switching signals in the Enova DGX Switcher is VM 0, which routes video.
For video sources that also include audio (e.g., sources with video and embedded audio routed through DGX HDMI or
DGX SC Optical Boards), VM 0 routes the video and any embedded audio. Embedded audio does

not

have a separate

virtual matrix for switching and

cannot

be broken away from the video.

VM 1, which switches exactly the same as VM 0, is also provided as an option for compatibility purposes with control
software and equipment.
Additional VMs can be created and are useful in some situations. Control can be simplified by creating a separate virtual
matrix for the inputs and outputs involved, e.g., if the signal from some of the equipment can only be routed to part of the
destinations due to incompatible EDIDs or to provide restricted access to certain source or destinations. The XNConnect
Help file contains information on creating new VMs.

Note:

If you use the advanced feature of creating a new virtual matrix (VM), be aware that the Control Panel

for the Enova DGX Switcher supports a maximum of two digits for virtual matrix numbers.

Caution:

Virtual matrix modifications are an advanced feature of XNConnect that should not be attempted

unless you are extremely familiar with XNConnect and the switcher being configured.
