Executing A Test Switch - AMX Precis LT Instruction Manual

Installation & Setup

Executing a Test Switch

Execute a test switch to verify the system is working properly before attaching all inputs and outputs.
Aside from having signal cables (and a controller if applicable) attached, the system is ready to execute
switches when it ships from the factory.
Important: The Precis LT ships from the factory with a default switch of Input 1 to all outputs. Before
executing the test switch, you will need to disconnect the factory default switch.
The first two source and destination devices must be attached to the input and output connectors (for
specific connector information, see "Attaching Inputs & Outputs" on page 20). After the devices are
connected, power must be applied to the enclosure first and then to the devices before executing a test
switch.
You can execute a test switch from the following:
Executing a Test Switch
Before executing the test switch, make sure the first two source devices and the first two destination
devices are connected to the correct input and output connectors.
Important: Component signals require multiple input and output connectors (e.g., an RGsB signal
requires three connectors). All of the signal cables for that signal (including audio if switching
audio-follow-video) must be attached before executing the test switch.
