connections and mute state for all outputs.
INFO: All Lightware matrix routers have 32 user programmable
presets. All presets are stored in a non-volatile memory; the router
keeps presets even in the case of a power down. Memory numbers
are assigned to source buttons 1 to 32. If the frame has fewer
buttons, the higher numbered presets are accessible only through
software control.
Saving a Preset in Take Mode
Step 1. Create the desired connections which have to be saved.
Step 2. Press and release the Save preset button.
Step 3. Press and release a source button according to the desired
memory address (source 1 to 32).
Step 4. Press and release the Take button.
