Windows Buttons, Drop Boxes, and Trash Can

The buttons, drop boxes, and trash can on the right side of the Matrix Switchers
Control Program window perform the following functions:
Power — Unavailable for DMS matrix switchers, because the switcher
power cannot be controlled via software.
Executive Mode — Allows you to lock out front panel operations, except for
the view-only mode functions. Click the button to cycle between locked (the
indicator displays red) and unlocked (the indicator is white).
Rooms menu — Displays a list of up to 10 rooms. You can select a room from
the list to display it in the window.
NOTE: A Room is a subset of outputs that are logically related to each
other, as determined by the operator. The DMS matrix switcher supports
up to 10 rooms, each of which can consist of from 1 to 16 outputs.
Presets menu — Displays a list of up to 32 global presets and up to 100
room presets (10 rooms x 10 presets per room). You can select a preset from
the list to display it and either activate it (Go) or delete it (Delete).
Presets – Go — Activates the selected preset as the current configuration.
Presets – Save as ... — Allows the current set of ties to be saved as a
preset. Enter the preset number when prompted to do so.
Presets – Delete — Allows the current preset to be deleted.
Changes – Take — Allows you to save to file any changes made to the displayed
configuration.
Changes – Cancel — Returns to the previous screen, undoing any changes you have
made.

associated with that input or output.
