PRELIMINARY
Front Panel Controls and Indicators
The front panel controls (figure 3-1 and figure 3-2) are grouped into two sets. The
input and output buttons are grouped on the left side of the control panel. The
control buttons and video/audio (I/O) selection buttons are grouped on the right
side of the panel.
N
While the number of inputs and outputs varies, depending on the size of the
matrix, there are only two front panel arrangements: 16 input buttons by 16
output buttons (figure 3-1) and 32 by 32 (figure 3-2).
N
On smaller matrix switchers, the larger-numbered buttons are not used for
input and output selection, although they are used to select and indicate preset
numbers, indicate the input audio level, and indicate the output audio volume.
