Bme.connection.and.selection - Extron electronics CrossPoint 450 Plus Series User Manual

N The length of exposed wires is critical. The ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 mm).
• If the stripped section of wire is longer than 3/16 inch, the exposed wires may
touch, causing a short circuit between them.
• If the stripped section of wire is shorter than 3/16 inch, wires can be easily
pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.
The volume level for each output can be individually set via the front panel or
via Ethernet or RS-232/RS-422 control. See chapter 3, "Operation", chapter 4,
"Programmer's Guide", chapter 5, "Matrix Software", and chapter 6, "HTML
Operation" for details.
