Configuration Worksheets
Rather than trying to remember the configuration for each preset, use worksheets
to record this information. Make copies of the blank worksheet on page 3-39 and
use one for each preset configuration. Cross out all unused or inactive inputs and
outputs. Use different colors for video and audio.
N
All of the equipment in the following examples is connected through the
appropriate fiber optic transmitter or receiver.
Worksheet example 1: System equipment
Figure 3-5 shows a worksheet for a 48-input by 32-output Fiber Matrix in a fictional
organization with the system hardware annotated. Inputs 10, 11, 25, 30, 35, 40, and
45 through 48 have no connections in this organization, so they have been crossed
out on the worksheet. Inputs 49 through 64 do not exist on this model, so they are
crossed out. Similarly, outputs 7, 14, 15, 16, and 33 through 64 are crossed out on
the worksheet.
Inputs include PCs, an audio CD player, cameras, and an Extron VTG 300. Output
devices include monitors, front and rear projectors, a stereo, and a VCR for
recording presentations.
The VTG 450 video test generator connected to input 12 enables a video test pattern
to be sent to one, several, or all output devices for problem isolation or adjustment
purposes. An audio test tape or CD could be used in a similar manner to check the
audio components.
