Executing & Disconnecting Switches
XBar Controller Overview
Switches can be executed and disconnected on the routing system by using the XBar, a graphic interface
control panel. The XBar controls specific parts of the system through virtual matrices. For example, the
XBar may switch audio-follow-video signals on one virtual matrix, video on another, and audio on yet
another. The virtual matrix selected will determine which part of the system is available for control in the
XBar.
An APWeb server provides access to a single routing system from a specific IP address and can be
accessed from up to five PCs at the same time. If you are controlling the same system as other users, you
can open the VM Selection Pad and update status as needed (see page 26). The VM Selection Pad is also
used to change virtual matrices. Keep in mind that executing switches on one virtual matrix may affect
the routing state on the other virtual matrices.
