A method is proposed for controlling a device for distribution of audio, video, data and control signals. The device has a number of inputs and outputs, which can be connected by the switching of takes, and which cover signal paths. Tally signaling signals inputs or outputs as being transmission-relevant. The method comprises the following steps: successful switching operations of takes are locked against further switching operations automatically and without any intervention by an operator. Signal paths are completely locked or unlocked on the basis of tally signaling of an input or output by automatic locking or unlocking of the takes involved. Signal paths are combined to form signal bundles. When signal bundles are locked or unlocked on the basis of tally signaling of the bundle, all of the signal paths involved are automatically locked or unlocked.
A method for controlling a device for distribution of audio, video, data, or control signals, with the device having at least one switching matrix, which has a number of inputs and a number of outputs, as well as a corresponding number of takes for production of links between the inputs and outputs, the method comprising:
