Muting and Unmuting Video and Audio Outputs
Individual outputs can be muted or unmuted as follows:
NOTE: Output mutes are protected when front panel Lock mode 2 is selected. You
can view the status of the output (muted or unmuted) in Lock mode 2 but you cannot
change it from the front panel (see Setting the Front Panel Locks (Executive
Modes) on page 62).
1. Press the Esc button to clear any input button indications, output button indications, or
control button indications that may be on.
2. Press and release the View button.
3. Select video, audio, or both to mute or unmute by pressing the Video button and the
Audio button.
4. One at a time, press and hold the buttons for the desired outputs for approximately
2 seconds. The output buttons for the selected outputs blink to indicate the mute or
return to their previous state to indicate the unmute.
5. Press and release the View button to return to normal switcher operation.
NOTES:
• You can mute video and audio, video-only, or audio-only outputs. Pressing and
releasing the Video button and the Audio button toggles each selection on
and off.
• When you enter View-only mode, the output buttons turn on for all outputs
without ties.
• Mutes are saved to non-volatile memory. When power is removed and restored,
the mute settings are retained.
