Page 221: Router Interface Settings (Router Menu)
Router Interface Settings (Router Menu) In this system, the interface with a router (routing switcher) uses the S-Bus protocol. It is therefore necessary to assign inputs and outputs of the switcher and so on to an S-Bus space. To carry out this assignment, use the Router/Tally >Router menu. The assignment is common to the parallel and serial tallies.
Page 222: Making An External Box Setting
Compact (128 × 128): Assign the switcher S-Bus space at compact size. It is not possible to assign all switcher inputs and outputs to the S-Bus space, but the S-Bus space can be used efficiently. Turn the knobs to set the parameters for the following items. Source: Specify the start address of the matrix source.
