With this menu, connections are made separately to each of the I/O ports. For
this example, connect Red input #5 to outputs #1 and #3. The actual display
information may vary, depending on the Matrix configuration.
1. If not already in the default Tie Menu, select it by pressing Escape. Observe
that the cursor is at the 0,3 position (under the >).
2. Use the Up/Down cursor keys to step through the choices. (e.g. Red, Grn, Blu,
Syn/Cv1, Cv2, Au1, etc.). Stop when your choice (Red for this example)
appears.
3. Use the Left/Right keys to position the cursor under the first input/output
position to be connected (INP #1).
4. With the cursor positioned under INP position #1, use the Up/Down cursor
keys to step to "5", or press the "5" key on the numeric keypad. Observe that
the "5" in the bottom row is blinking to signify a "tentative" connection,
meaning it has not yet been stored in memory.
5. Continue by moving the cursor under the next input/output connection to be
made (INP position #3) and enter the input number (5). Repeat this step for
each connection to be made. Observe that all INP positions that have
tentative changes are now blinking. (Those input/output connections that are
not to be changed will not blink.)
6. When all input/output connections have been entered, use the Left/Right
cursor keys to move the cursor at position 0,3. Press Enter to store the input/
output connection settings in memory.
At this point, the Breakaway indicator will light to indicate that the connections
were made on an Individual plane and not on a Gang.

allows the user to select the particular menu that pertains to the function to be
performed. The LCD displays the menu number and name (1. Copy). Notice that
the numeric keypad has the corresponding menu name next to each number
key.
Notice that the cursor is in the second line, first position (1,0), under the menu
number (1). To select this menu, press Enter. To select another menu, press the
corresponding numeric key. This is the fastest way. When selecting with the
keypad, it is not necessary to press Enter.
