Selecting
Select 'MODE' (married or breakaway, audio or video) then the required
'DESTINATION', followed by the relevant 'SOURCE'. Decisions made are tallied
at all times by the LED's.
Controlling more than f our destinations
The XY panel will control 16x8 audio matrices, 16x8 video matrices or married
16x8 audio follow matrices (for which audio/video breakaway is not available).
The panel operates as previously described, except that the married/unmarried
'MODE' button is not active and the second 'MODE' button selects between the
first four outputs (red LED illuminated) and the second four outputs (green LED
illuminated). A and B legends by the second 'MODE' and the 'SOURCE' buttons
help identify which source relates to each output.
Monitoring
For outputs 1-4 red LED's indicate the source, for outputs 5-8 green LED's
indicate the source. Therefore selecting destination button marked 1, sources for
outputs 1 and 5 will be shown etc.
Selecting
Use the second 'MODE' button to select between the first four outputs (red LED
illuminated) or the second four outputs (green LED illuminated). Select required
source.
Operational overview
The XY panel can be operated in either synchronous or asynchronous mode.
Synchronous mode ( Applicable to all Routemaster matrices except 16x1 and
5x1's).
When in the synchronous mode of operation, the Routemaster matrix provides the
synchronisation. Contained within the Routemaster, the PC3016 printed circuit
board generates strobe pulses to control the four destinations. This mode of
operation is utilised to control 16x1 and 5x1 Routemaster matrices.
Asynchronous mode ( Applicable to Routemaster 16x1 and 5x1's matrices).
When in the asynchronous mode of operation, the XY panel generates the
synchronisation pulses. This mode of operation is utilised to control all
Routemaster matrices except 16x1 and 5x1's.
