Controlling Paralleled Inputs

For control purposes, the system has been configured so the boards are on different virtual matrices
(levels). Each split of the source signal is treated as a separate input signal on a different virtual matrix.
Steps for executing switches with a control panel, APControl, APWeb, and BCS commands are provided
below (status can be verified in a similar manner). For more control information, see the appropriate
manual, supplement, or Help file.
Control Panel
To execute switches on paralleled inputs using a control panel:
1.
Follow the instructions for executing a switch on the control panel, using the virtual matrix (level)
for which the first board is configured and selecting the paralleled input (source) and the desired
output(s) (destinations).
2.
Repeat Step 1 for the second board, using the virtual matrix (level) for which it is configured and
selecting the paralleled input and the desired output(s).
APControl or APWeb
To execute switches on paralleled inputs using APControl or APWeb:
1.
Using the CrossBar (APControl) or XBar (APWeb) for the VM (level) associated with the first
board, select the crosspoint for the paralleled input and desired outputs(s).
2.
Repeat Step 1 for the second board using the CrossBar or XBar for the second VM (level).
BCS
To execute switches on paralleled inputs using BCS commands:
1. Enter the command for the first board using its level and selecting the paralleled input and the
desired output(s).
2.
Enter the command for the second board using its level and selecting the paralleled input and the
desired output(s).
Example:
For a system where the paralleled boards are configured as Level 1 and 2, entering the commands below
switches paralleled Input 2 to Output 3 on the first board (Level 1) and also switches paralleled Input 2 to
Output 15 on the second board (Level 2).
