4 Cobra MX-88 8x8 Matrix Switcher Operation
This section describes how to operate the
Cobra MX-88
8x8 Matrix Switcher
.
4.1 Keypad Description
The
Cobra MX-88
8x8 Matrix Switcher
provides a front-panel keypad that
may be used to configure the input to output channel assignments.
Additionally, these assignments may be saved as preset configurations. Eight
configurations may be saved for later use.
When an input or output channel is selected, the key will be illuminated.
Pressing an input or output key will “toggle” the selection. It is not necessary
to press the CANCEL key to remove only the selected key from the current
assignment. The CANCEL key is used to abort any operation in progress, and
will also re-initialize all input and output key selections. The ENTER key will
update the matrix assignments with the current selection.
The
Cobra MX-88
8x8 Matrix Switcher
will “remember” the current preset
configuration if power is removed, and will return to this state when power is
restored. If the current configuration has not been saved as a preset however,
the unit will recall the last saved preset.
An eight by eight display is furnished to provide the user with a visual
overview of the current matrix assignments.
