Viewing a Configuration
The current configuration can be viewed using the front panel buttons. The View-only mode
prevents inadvertent changes to the current configuration. View-only mode also provides a
way to mute outputs (see Muting and Unmuting Outputs, on page 33).
View the current configuration as follows:
1. Press the Esc button to clear any front panel button indications that may be lit.
2. Press and release the View button. All of the buttons light for outputs that are not tied.
3. Select the desired input or outputs whose ties you wish to view by pressing the input
and output buttons.
If you press an output button for which there are no ties, the output buttons light for all
outputs without ties.
NOTES:
• To see all ties of the current configuration, press and release each input and
output button, one at a time.
• After 30 seconds of front panel inactivity, View-only mode automatically ends.
