Infrared (IR) Control
The front panel buttons are used to individually amend the input / output structure of the Matrix. Using the Output Up
/ Down buttons, rst select the desired output, then using the Input Up / Down buttons, select the source device to
switch to. Clicking the Input Up / Down buttons scrolls through the Input / Output numbers sequentially from 1 - 6
(or) 8 then back to 1. The Output Up / Down buttons scroll from 1 - 6 (or) 8 then ‘A’ for All, before returning to output
1. Selecting ‘A’ will switch all outputs to the selected Input.
The front panel buttons can be used for other control features:
• Input Up - press and hold for 3 seconds to power o the matrix (press to power on when in standby mode)
• Output Down - press and hold for 10 seconds to turn on/o front panel button lock
• Output Up - press and hold for 3 seconds to set PTP mode (output 1 = input 1, output 2 = input 2 etc.)
