Figure 11. Front Panel Configuration Port
A
Configuration port — This mini USB B port serves a similar
communications function as the rear panel Remote port, but it is
easier to access than the rear port after the matrix switcher has been
installed and cabled.
NOTE: A front panel Configuration port connection and a
rear panel Remote port connection can both be active at the
same time. If commands are sent simultaneously to both, the
command that reaches the processor first is handled first.
