Configuration

Display Types

Each display can be configured as either "Odd" or "Even" type using the DisplayX_Type parameters:

• 1 = Odd display
• 0 = Even display

Inputs

Digital Inputs

• Source1_Select to Source8_Select: Select the corresponding source
• DualDisplayMode: Enter dual display selection mode
• OddSelectionMode: Select source for odd displays
• EvenSelectionMode: Select source for even displays
• Cancel: Cancel current selection mode
• PowerOff: Reset all routing and clear selections

Outputs

Digital Outputs

• Source1_Active to Source8_Active: Indicates if the source is being displayed on any output
• ShowSourceControl_FB: Feedback for source control mode
• ShowOddSelection_FB: Feedback for odd display selection mode
• ShowEvenSelection_FB: Feedback for even display selection mode

Analog Outputs

• Display1_RoutedSource to Display8_RoutedSource: Currently routed source for each display
• TP_DisplayEvenSource: Convenience output for touch panel integration (mirrors Display2_RoutedSource)

Usage

Basic Operation

1. Select a source using Source1_Select to Source8_Select to route to all displays
2. For dual display mode:
   • Press DualDisplayMode
   • Select a source for odd displays
   • Then select a source for even displays
3. For individual control:
   • Use OddSelectionMode to select a source for odd displays
   • Use EvenSelectionMode to select a source for even displays

Touch Panel Integration

• Use the ShowSourceControl_FB, ShowOddSelection_FB, and ShowEvenSelection_FB outputs to provide visual feedback on the current mode
• The TP_DisplayEvenSource output provides the current source for the second display, useful for touch panel feedback

Power Management

• The PowerOff input resets all routing and clears all selections
• All source active indicators will turn off when power is cycled

Example Implementation

// In SIMPL Windows
// Connect your digital inputs (buttons) to Source1_Select through Source8_Select
// Connect mode selection buttons to DualDisplayMode, OddSelectionMode, EvenSelectionMode
// Connect feedback signals to your touch panel indicators
// Connect DisplayX_RoutedSource to your display switcher inputs
