DMP 64 Operation

The DMP 64 does not have physical controls. Configuration and operation are
accomplished using a PC running Windows XP or better and the DSP Configurator
software (available on the included disc or at

www.extron.com

), an embedded web

page using Windows Internet Explorer, or the Extron SIS

™

Simple Instruction Set using

hyper-terminal or DataViewer.

There are several front and rear panel operational indicators outlined in the following
pages.
