Clearing Protects Held by an RCP-QE

A protect that is held by an RCP-QE prevents the crosspoint being changed by another user. A protect can be sent to
the routing switcher from any connected remote control panel. Protects can be applied at any time and are indicated
by the protection indicator at the bottom right of the destination key.
To clear one protect from an RCP-QE:
1. Press the destination button that has the protection applied.
The protection indicator is shown at the bottom right of the destination button.
2. Press PROT Loc.
To clear all of the protects from an RCP-QE:
1. Open the RCP-QE Panel Configuration editor (see "Opening the RCP-QE Panel Configuration Editor" on
page 4–4).

Protects may be held by other remote control panels. Each remote control panel attached to a routing switcher
