Software Issues
The following items address software related technical support issues.
The following steps describe the steps necessary to use it in Terminal Emulator mode.
Using PASS mode
Use with a computer running Axcess software connected to an AXlink master controller, and the
AMX Lighting controller connected as an AXlink device.
Establishing communication with the Axcess controller can be verified when the display window in
the lower left corner of Axcess shows the PUSH channels and channel numbers.
1.
Go to the Terminal Emulator screen (Ctrl+T or F4) after communication is verified.
2.
Type "VER" to get status of AXlink devices online to the controller. This is where you
determine the AXlink device number of the AMX Lighting controller.
3.
Enter Pass mode by typing PASS followed by the device number. If the device number of the
AMX Lighting controller were 96, you would type "PASS 96".
4.
Press Enter.
5.
The AMX Lighting controller returns the string ERXON in acknowledgment. If you do not get
the pack, you have not communicated or something else is wrong.
6.
Once this point has been reached, the Pass mode will last for 15 seconds. After that time it is
required that you re-enter pass mode.
