Definitions
The following terms, which apply to Extron digital matrix switchers, are used in this guide:
•
Tie
— An input-to-output connection
•
Set of ties
— An input tied to two or more outputs. (An output can never be tied to
more than one input.)
•
Configuration
— One or more ties or sets of ties
•
Current configuration
— The configuration that is currently active in the switcher (also
called configuration 0)
•
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data)
— Resolution, refresh rate, pixel clock,
and audio channel configuration information for a display device. This information
is stored in memory at system power-up and each time a new display device is
connected. The EDID is then made available to be assigned to any input. This feature is
available only through PCS (see the DXP HD 4K PLUS Series help file).
•
Global preset
— A configuration that has been stored, consisting of a complete
map of all input and output connections. When a preset is retrieved from memory, it
becomes the
current configuration
. The DXP HD 4K PLUS can store up to 16 global
presets in memory.
