Verifying Signal Status
The status of inputs or outputs can be checked using the Enova DGX Control Panel. Signal status can be verified to confirm that a
switch has executed properly or to confirm correct routing to multiple outputs (destinations). Verifying an input will illuminate all
outputs currently receiving the input’s signal. An output can only be connected to one input (source); therefore, verifying the
status of an output will illuminate only the one input that is currently routed to it.
Once the Control Panel is in Status Mode, inputs and outputs can be selected by pressing the corresponding Input and Output Keys
without changing the routing state. The panel stays in Status Mode until the Function Key is pressed.
To verify signal status on a different virtual matrix, see “Changing the Virtual Matrix” on page 220.
To verify the status of a signal:
1. Press the Function Key.
The Function menu appears.
2. Locate Status by scrolling with the Control Dial.
3. Press the Select Key.
The system is in Status Mode (all available Input and Output Keys turn blue).
4. Press the Input Key that corresponds to the input you want to check.
The selected Input Key turns white, and any Output Keys receiving the input signal also turn white.
Or
Press the Output Key that corresponds to the output you want to check.
The selected Output Key turns white, and if an Input Key routed to it, that key also turns white.
5. Select another signal to verify.
Or
Press the Function Key to return to the Function menu.
Defining and Executing Global Presets
Global presets are predefined sets of switches that can easily be executed at one time. Each global preset is a snapshot of the
system’s routing state and output volume settings at a particular time which can be recalled at a later time. The system must be
routed to the desired state before defining a global preset.
Global presets can be defined or recalled using either the Control Panel or BCS commands interchangeably. The Control Panel on
the Enova DGX Switcher supports up to 64 global presets. Because all 64 potential global preset numbers are displayed in the
Global Preset submenu, be aware that nothing indicates which of the numbers have been assigned a routing state. A system state
can be restored at any time by selecting the assigned global preset number.
Depending on whether or not the system includes Audio Switching Boards, global presets operate in one of two ways in Enova DGX
100 Series Switchers.
In a system without Audio Switching Boards (ASB or ASB-DAN) –
A global preset number can be assigned to a routing state during runtime and stored by the system, allowing you to replicate an
entire system’s routing state.
NOTE: The global preset will not affect the injection/extraction setting on any channel of any AIE Board.
In a system with Audio Switching Boards (ASB or ASB-DAN) –
A global preset number can be assigned to a routing state during runtime and stored by the system, allowing you to replicate a
subset of the system state. The system routing state includes all signal routings and audio settings for Mute/Unmute and Output
Volume; however, it excludes any down-mix switching routes. Global presets cannot capture Digital Signal Processing settings.
TIP: If a backup of a given entire system state is required when Audio Switching Boards are in the system (including Digital Signal
Processing settings), the System Configuration interface’s Switcher-Setup-Save function can save all of the system’s configuration
values in a file that can be loaded back to the Switcher when needed (see page 169).
