Operating the Control Panel

Instruction Manual – HDMI-UTPRO-0808
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 components are selected by
pressing the appropriate keys.
Input Keys (1-8) and Output Keys (1-8)
The Input and Output Keys correspond to the input and output connections on the rear of the enclosure. These keys are
used to select (or deselect) the inputs and outputs for routing source signals to destination devices as well as for status
operations. Input Keys are also used for locking and unlocking the control panel. When an Input or Output Key is
pressed, the channel name (e.g., O_Ch:0003 for Output 3) displays on the LCD. Hold the key down to display the name
longer.
Note:
Custom channel names can be created in XNConnect (see page 113).
The Input and Output Keys illuminate depending on the mode (the type of operation) the HDMI UTPro is in:
Blue key
– indicates that it can be selected as part of the current operation.
White or flashing white key
– indicates that it has been selected and that further action is required to
complete the operation. A white key can also indicate routing status. White keys can be deselected.
When a key is flashing white, it cannot be deselected and does not display label information on the
LCD when pressed (to clear the operation, press the Cancel Key).
Non-illuminated key
– is not available for the current operation.
Key State Example
In the Key State example in FIG. 32, Input 3 is flashing white, indicating that it was selected first. Outputs 3, 6, and 7 are
illuminated white, indicating that they have also been selected (and can be deselected). The switch from Input 3 to
Outputs 3, 6, and 7 will be executed when the Take Key is pressed.
Power LED
The green Power LED illuminates when the HDMI UTPro is receiving power.
