8.14 Parallel
The MSD can be controlled from external contact points. Since photocoupler input is used for parallel input
connectors, it is electrically insulated from the connected device. When each pin of parallel input connector is
pulled to GND, functions assigned to these pins will be performed.
You can assign the following functions to each pin by following the instruction of
1. Switching input channels
2. Changing channel switching modes (independent from the front panel switching mode)
3. Sending control commands
4. Locking/releasing parallel inputs
5. Turning on/off display devices
6. Operating menu
7. Locking/releasing front panel
8. Loading cross point/ preset memory
9. Adjusting audio output level
If the contact input operation is unstable due to switch chattering, change the chattering reduction time longer
