SID-X1N - Operating the SID-X1N

7 Operating the SID-X1N

This chapter describes the operating procedures of the SID-X1N and comprises:

 Manually selecting an input (see Section 7.1)

 Taking control of the switcher input (see Section 7.2)

 Locking the EDID (see Section 7.3)

Powering up the SID-X1N recalls from the non-volatile memory the last settings

that were in force when the device was powered down.

The SID-X1N inputs can be selected remotely via the VP-81SIDN. For details on

how to do so, see the VP-81SIDN User Manual.

7.1 Manually Selecting an Input

Note: When the button is lit it is inactive and pressing the button will not activate

the input.

To manually select an input:

 Press the INPUT SELECT button repeatedly until the required input is active

as indicated by the associated LED.

Note: The manual selection overrides any input selection when in last connected

mode and remains in effect until the device is power cycled.

7.2 Taking Control of the Switcher Input

To activate the input of the switcher to which the SID-X1N is connected, press the

STEP-IN button. If the switcher grants the SID-X1N access to the input, the STEP-

IN button lights. If the switcher does not grant access for some reason, the button

flashes for a few seconds and then does not light. One reason for this may be that

the switcher input connected to the SID-X1N has been set to have a lower priority

than the currently active input.

Note: Input priority on the switcher is set using the Kramer Control Software.
