outputs with audio follow and audio breakaway for models with audio.
Any input to any or all outputs
Quick multiple tie — Multiple inputs can be switched to multiple outputs
simultaneously. This allows all displays (outputs) to change from source to
source at the same time.
Audio follow — Audio can be switched with the corresponding video input.
This feature allows any audio signal to be selected with any video signal
simultaneously to one or all outputs in any combination. Audio follow
switching can be done via front panel control or under RS-232/RS-422 remote
control.
Audio breakaway — Audio can be broken away from its corresponding
video signal. Audio breakaway switching can be done via front panel control
or under RS-232/RS-422 control.

control panels and/or MKP 1000 slave control keypads. The remote control
devices are easy to use and provide tactile buttons for quick selection. Each
MCP 1000 can be used for one-touch switching for a particular output and
selecting global presets. Each MKP 1000 dedicated to an output can be used
to select a different input for that output or to select a preset.
