The audio level for each TP input can be individually set via the front panel
or serial port control to ensure that the level on the output does not vary from
input to input. See chapter 3, "Operation", chapter 4, "Programmer's Guide",
and chapter 5, "Matrix Software", for details.
Input Select switch switches — For inputs 1 through 3 (matrix
sizes 1616 and smaller) or inputs 1 through 6 (matrix sizes 1632 and
larger), set these DIP switches to the Local (up) position to select the
local (RGB video and audio) input. Set the DIP switches to the
RJ-45 (down) position to select the MTP input.
