Enabling Front Panel Lockout (Executive Mode)
Executive mode disables all front panel controls, locking out the user from those functions.
Putting the switcher in this mode enhances security by protecting against inappropriate
or accidental changes to settings. When the switcher is in executive mode, RS-232 and IR
control remain available.
To lock or unlock the front panel:
1. Press and hold Input buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously.
2. When the LEDs blink three times, release the buttons (approximately 3 seconds). (See
the illustration below.)
