Logical Matrix Configuration Screen Description
Figure 76. Sample Relationship Between Logical Matrices, Levels, Elements, and Segments.
The parameters for a Logical Matrix are:
• Name. Must be unique for all Logical Matrices within a Router Con-
troller.
• Level for the Logical Matrix (single Level only).
• Other Levels which may be used for interlevel routing within the same
Crosspoint Group. Default is none.
• Number of elements for the Level (default is one).
The parameters for each Element are:
• Link to a segment of a Crosspoint Group. For second and subsequent
elements the quantity of inputs and outputs in the Segments must
equal those for the Segment used in the first Element.
The link of a Logical Matrix element to a Segment must be unique (i.e.,
there is one and only one Element attached to a Segment) unless the
Segment is flagged to support multiple Logical Matrices.
Sources and Destinations are configured with each valid Level attached to
a Logical Matrix and a connector within the physical range for that Logical
Matrix. The routable Level for the Source or Destination must match with
the Level configured for the Logical Matrix. Where the Logical Matrix sup
-
ports multiple Elements, only the first Element is manually configured, all
other Elements are automatically assigned according to the Segment's con
-
figuration.
Configuring a Logical Matrix
The following procedures continue from Configuring a Physical Matrix on
page 126, but can be used to configure a Logical Matrix at any time.

Logical Matrix = Red+Green+Blue = RGB Level
Element 1 = Segment A (Red)
Element 2 = Segment B (Green)
Element 3 = Segment C (Blue)
Segments A, B, and C switch together
(three crosspoints switch for every connect).
Red, Green, or Blue can not be broken away
from each other.
Segments A, B, and/or C can be from the same
or different Physical Matrices/Crosspoint Groups.
