This driver simulates a real matrix switcher and is helpful for demonstrating the system and viewing/designing touch screen interfaces when real matrix hardware is not available. If your Elve system came preconfigured with an instance of this driver in the device list, you will likely want to replace this with the appropriate device driver for your system.

SetZoneSource ( Number, Number )
Sets the source for a zone to the specified source.
SyntaxParameterszoneNumber : The zone number. (1-20)
sourceNumber : The source number. (1-6)
SetPropertyForDuration ( String, TimeSpan, Object, Object )
Sets a property for a duration of time and then sets the property to a subequent value asynchronously. This action returns after setting the first value and the timer and subsequent property set run in the background. Subsequent sets of the same property will reset the timer if the subsequent value has not yet been set. This is an advanced feature, be sure to set the property name correctly.
SyntaxParameterspropertyName : The name of the property to set.
duration : The amount of time to wait after setting the initial value to set the subsequent value.
initialValue : The value to set the property to initially.
finalValue : The value to set the property to after the duration of time has passed.
