Menu Item R: SET ROUTE
Purposes
Menu item R enables you to set the routing function.
What is the routing function?
If you cannot expand the number of inputs using cascade
connections, you may connect sources of a switcher to the
destinations of another switcher to achieve expansion. In
such condition, you may set a function to display the
source selected for the destination connected to an
extended input when you select an input to the extended
device, and support the required switching operation.
Such a function that enables input expansion with a device
without cascading capability is called a “routing function.”
By using the routing function, you can simply operate
sources used for multiple destinations as if switching
sources for a single destination.
Even when such input expansion is repeated 4 times at
maximum, the routing function enables you to search for
destinations tracing back via the expanded inputs and to
obtain a display of the appropriate source.
To display the actually selected source name, you must set
the routing function with the terminal.
Then when you select a crosspoint set for the routing
function, the source on switcher A is searched for, and the
name is displayed.
For example, when a crosspoint is switched on switcher A
in the figure, normally IN5 appears as the source name. If
the routing function has been set, the source name selected
on switcher A appears.
To activate the routing function, set the destination of
switcher A, the destination and source of switcher B, and
the level, in that order.
