Operation, cont’d MAV Series Switchers • Operation 3-2 Operation Front Panel Contr ols and Indicators The front panel controls (figure 3-1 and figur e 3-2) are gr ouped into two sets. The input and output buttons and LED indicators are grouped on the left side of the control panel.
3-3 MAV Series Switchers • Operation 1 Input 1 through 16 buttons and LEDs — The input buttons have two independent functions: to select and identify an input and to select or identify a preset. A more detailed explanation of the two functions is included in Front panel operations , beginning on pages 3-4.
Operation, cont’d MAV Series Switchers • Operation 3-4 8 Audio button and LED — The Audio button selects and deselects audio for a configuration that is being created or viewed. The Audio LED lights to indicate that the audio configuration follows the video configuration.
3-5 MAV Series Switchers • Operation The current configuration and all presets ar e saved in non-volatile memory . When power is applied, the last current configuration is retrieved. The pr evious pr esets remain intact. If an error occurs during the self-test, the switcher locks up and will not operate.
Operation, cont’d MAV Series Switchers • Operation 3-6 D Press and release the output 3, output 4, and output 8 buttons. The output 3, output 4, and output 8 LEDs blink to indicate a tentative tie. The entire set of ties can be canceled at this point by pressing and releasing the Esc button.
3-7 MAV Series Switchers • Operation E Press and release the Enter button. The input and output LEDs turn of f. The current configuration is now video input 5 tied to video output 1, output 3, output 4, and output 8; and audio input 5 tied to audio output 3, output 4, and output 8.
