werebeingcontrolled.Turnthisoptionoffifthematrixswitcherisbeingcontrolledbyanyothermethodthanin-roomIR.
Note: To use Matrix Control from Room, it is recommended to program a universal remote control with discrete commands
for matrix control to keep in each zone, rather than using the included IR remote or commands learned from it.
Go to the Support Tab of the B-500-MTRX-230-4X4 product page at www.SnapAV.com to see and download the
available IR codes and drivers for IR remote programming.
