Frequently Asked QuestionsQ: What features were changed in the latest firmware (version 1.1)?
A: IR compatibility, restrictions behavior, and zone/source mapping serial commands were improved. Click here to download Version 1.1. See the Upgrade Notes for details.
Q: How can I switch audio and video independently?
A: The Ethernet and Serial interfaces allow independent audio/video switching, but the front panel, IR remote, and graphical web interface do not. Consult the manual for information on how to enable breakaway switching in each of the control modes. Q: Can I expand the inputs or outputs of the CMX-144?
A: No, the CMX-144 has been designed as a 4x4 matrix only. Q: What makes the CMX-144 unique?
