Definitions
The following terms, which apply to Extron digital matrix switchers, are used in this guide:
•
Tie — An input-to-output connection
•
Set of ties — An input tied to two or more outputs. (An output can never be tied to more than one input.)
•
Configuration — One or more ties or sets of ties
•
Current configuration — The configuration that is currently active in the switcher (also called configuration
0)
•
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) — Resolution, refresh rate, pixel clock, and audio channel
configuration information for a display device. This information is stored in memory at system power-up and
each time a new display device is connected. The EDID is then made available to be assigned to any input.
This feature is available only through PCS (see the DXP HD 4K PLUS Series Help File).
•
Global preset — (DXP 44, 84, 88, 168, and 1616 PLUS only) A configuration that has been stored, consisting
of a complete map of all input and output connections. When a preset is retrieved from memory, it becomes
the current configuration. The DXP HD 4K PLUS can store up to 16 global presets in memory.
•
Room — (DXP 44, 84, 88, 168, and 1616 PLUS only) A subset of outputs that are logically related to each
other, as determined by the operator. The switchers support up to 10 rooms, each of which can consist of 1 to
16 outputs. Each room can have up to 10 presets.
•
Room preset — (DXP 44, 84, 88, 168, and 1616 PLUS only) A configuration consisting of outputs in a single
room that has been stored. When a room preset is recalled from memory, it becomes the current configuration
for the outputs assigned to that room only (none of the other outputs are affected). Room presets can be
saved and recalled only via SIS commands or the PCS software.
