Crosspoint Operations
Switching
For making a connection, click on the desired square. If there is no connection
between the desired input and output (the square is dark grey), the mouse pointer
becomes a hand (link pointer) before the clicking. If the output port is not locked,
the connection is made, the square becomes white and the cursor changes back
to a pointer.
For example, Input 8 is not connected to Output 2 as shown on the first picture. If
the connection is established, the square becomes white. Input and output ports
can be disconnected when clicking on a white square.
Muting Outputs #mute #unmute
Outputs can be easily muted by clicking on the button represented by a crossed
monitor beside the output. That means no signal is present on the given output. If
mute is active, the color of the button's background changes to white.
Locking Outputs #lock #unlock
Outputs can be locked to any input. After locking an output to an input, no switching is
permitted to this output unless it is unlocked again. If output lock is active, the color of
the button's background changes to white.

INFO: Loading a preset does not change either the lock state or the switch state of a locked output. If an
output is locked to an input before preset loading, it will also be locked to that input after preset loading,
so locked outputs ignore the preset.
7.4.2. Tile View
The tiles represent input or output ports and additionally show the most important port and signal information.
Thus, the user can check the status of many ports at the same time.
