ME, and Windows 2000 and provides remote control of the
input selection for each output (including audio breakaway)
and audio gain and attenuation adjustments.
Updates to this program can be downloaded from the Extron
Web site (http://www.extron.com).

Program and Universal Switcher Help) into a group named
"Extron Electronics".
