If the Take button has been enabled, the new source button and the Take button
will flash. The route change will only take place when you confirm by pressing the
Take button.
Locking and Unlocking Routes
To lock a destination, press and hold the desired destination button until it turns blue.
The corresponding source button will illuminate. If you attempt to change sources for a locked
destination, the destination button will flash blue. To unlock a destination, press and hold the
button until it returns to the standard gold color.
Using Macros
If you press a green macro button, it will simultaneously make the crosspoint changes you have
previously configured in Videohub Hardware Panel Setup. Each button can be configured with
up to 16 crosspoint routes. If you have the Take button enabled, the simultaneous change of
routes will only take place when you confirm by pressing the Take button. If for any reason the
macro cannot be performed, the button will flash.

Configuring GPIs
The GPI and Tally Interface has 8 GPIs that provide crosspoint switching. In the example on the
left, if GPI 1 detects a contact closure it will switch Input 12 on your Videohub to Output 1. This
means when you switch the joystick control on your CCU, video going to Input 12 of your
Videohub will be previewed on your monitor.
The crosspoints can be configured in the Videohub Hardware Panel Setup simply by clicking
inside the Input and Output fields on the diagram and typing in the Input or Output number.
The Videohub Control Settings pane offers two ways to preview the output from
your Videohub.
Click inside the diagram to change inputs and outputs for GPI crosspoint switching and Tally.
