Power; Creating A Configuration - Extron electronics DMS 1600 User Manual

Power

Apply power by connecting one or both power cords between the Primary and Redundant
AC power connectors and the AC sources. The switcher performs a self-test that randomly
flashes the front panel buttons; then flashes all buttons green, red, and amber; and then
turns them either off or to background illumination. An error-free power up self-test
sequence leaves all control buttons either unlit or showing background illumination.
The current configuration and all presets are saved in non-volatile memory. When power is
applied, the most recent configuration is retrieved. The previous presets remain intact.
If an error occurs during the self-test, the switcher locks up and fails to respond to
commands or button pushes. If your switcher locks up on power-up, call the Extron S3 Sales
& Technical Support Hotline (see the
your region of the world).

Creating a Configuration

The current configuration can be changed using the front panel buttons. Change the current
configuration as follows:
1.
Press the Esc button to clear any front panel button indications that may be lit.
2. Select the desired input and one or more outputs by pressing the input and output
buttons. Input buttons and output buttons light or blink green to indicate ties.
• To indicate potential ties, output buttons blink when an input is selected.
•
To indicate current ties, output buttons light steadily when an input is selected.
•
To clear unwanted outputs, press and release the associated lit output buttons. To
indicate potential unties, output buttons blink when an output is deselected but
not untied from the input.
3.
Press and release the Enter button to accept the tie.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 to create or delete additional ties until the desired
configuration is complete.

• Only one input can be tied to an output.
•
If a tie is made between an input and an output, and the selected output
was previously tied to another input, the older tie is broken in favor of
the newer tie.
• If an input with no tie is selected, only the button for that input lights.
• As each input and output is selected, the associated output button blinks
to indicate a tentative tie. Buttons for outputs that were already tied to
the input light steadily. Outputs that are already tied can be left on, along
with new blinking selections, or toggled off by pressing the associated
output button.
• If you press the input button for an input that is I/O grouped (see I/O
grouping), you cannot select the output button for an output in a
different group. The associated input button remains lit.
