Crosspoint Action Destinations
Crosspoint action destinations can be added to the list by dragging and 
dropping devices from the Direct/Interfaces, Fixed Groups and Panels 
lists onto the destination list whether or not it is open.  If the destination 
list is opened then dropping a new destination onto an existing 
destination will replace it.  If there are no items already assigned to the 
destination list  then the list name will be highlighted in red.  If there are 
items already assigned the list will not be highlighted but instead will be 
surrounded by a green box.

When the list name is highlighted in yellow the item can be dropped 
into the list.
Figure 1-67: New Destination Item Added
Right-clicking on ‘Add destination...’ will display a menu allowing all the 
ports or all the panels in the configuration to be added to the 
destination list.

Destinations in the list can be copied, cut, deleted or excluded by 
selecting the required items from the list and right clicking to display 
the options list.  Multiple items on the list can be selected by holding 
down the Shift key while selecting items.
Figure 1-69: Crosspoint Action Destination Options
Items that are cut or copied can be pasted into other source or 
destination lists.   Deleting an item removes it from the destination list 
while the ‘Change to Excluded’ option allows a destination to be 
excluded from consideration when triggering an output.  Any 
destination that is excluded is shown in red.  If ‘All Ports’ is present in 
the destination list this cannot be excluded.
Right clicking on an empty destination list without expanding the list 
will display an additional option of ‘Pin to Source List’.

Figure 1-70: Pin to Source List Destination Option
Selecting the ‘Pin to Source List’ option replaces the ‘Destinations’ 
menu with ‘Dests => Sources’.  To reinstate the ‘Destinations’ menu 
right click on ‘Dests => Sources’ and select ‘Detach from Source List’.
Figure 1-71: Delete Pin to Source List Option
The ‘Dests => Sources’ option replaces the destination list with a 
matrix of crosspoints between all the sources in the source list. This is 
shown by the crosspoint options menu being replaced by a new ‘All 
Xpts’ menu.  Right-clicking on the ‘All Xpts’ menu will display a list of 
options allowing the crosspoint matrix to be modified.
Figure 1-72: Crosspoint Pin to Source Options
The crosspoint options for Pin to Source are:
• All Xpts - acts on every crosspoint between sources in the source 
list.  The example below shows the table for sources 1 - 6.

• Mix-Minus - acts on every crosspoint between sources on the 
source list except loopback crosspoints that form the diagonal on 
the crosspoint matrix.  The example below shows the table for 
sources 1 - 6.
Figure 1-74: Mix-Minus Crosspoints
• Diagonal - triggers on all loopback crosspoints .i.e. where sources 
on the source list are looped back to themselves.  The example 
below shows the table for sources 1 - 6.

LOGIC ELEMENTS
Logic elements are used to perform logical operations on the outputs 
of control sequence elements and pass the result to the input of other 
control sequence elements.  This allows complex sequences of 
actions depending on various conditions to be built up and 
programmed into the matrix system.  Right click on the logic elements 
in the Logic Elements pane to display an options menu.  This menu 
allows the user to display a truth table for the logic element or copy the 
logic element to the design window.
Logic elements can be inserted existing connections by right-clicking 
on the connection to display the options menu and selecting ‘Insert 
Gate Type’.  A list of logic elements will be displayed for insertion into 
the connection.
Figure 1-76: Inserting a Logic Element into a Connection
The logic elements available are described below.
AND Gate
Combines two or more inputs to generate a single output.  The default 
is two inputs but by right clicking on the AND gate to display the 
options menu additional inputs can be added.  Unused inputs will 
default to the TRUE state.  The output is only true if all the inputs are 
true.  The AND gate adds a 25ms processing delay.
