Page 4.3 - 5
Internal switches select the correct mode (see Appendix B). At the rear of the XY
panel the 25 way 'D' type connectors carry the interfaces for the relevant
Routemaster matrices. The 9-way 'D' type connector interfaces to a joystick
over-ride.
When the joystick over-ride facility is installed, operation of the joystick will
temporarily disable the source buttons and switch to the pre-selected source and
destination. A red LED on the appropriate destination button will be illuminated
whilst the over-ride is active. Control returns to the previous state once the
joystick over-ride is released.
Maintenance
The only routine maintenance required is replacement of the internal battery (type
AA Lithium 3.7V DC, rated 1.8 AH, standby current is less than 0.1 mA).
