IPL T SF24 and IPL T SFI244 • Communication and Control

IPL T SF24 and IPL T SFI244 • Communication and Control

Communication and Control, cont’d

Customization

In the IPL T interface family, varying degrees of customization
are possible.

Server side includes

make it possible to obtain

information from the unit and display the information on Web
pages.

URL encoding

allows you to send information and

commands to the unit to change its configuration or provide
you with feedback.

Server side includes

Server sides includes (SSIs) are a type of HTML comment that
directs the Web server to dynamically generate data for a Web
page whenever it is requested. SSIs typically use Extron’s
Simple Instruction Set (SIS) to communicate commands to the
products or attached control devices. Using SSIs, custom pages
can be designed and displayed, with IPL T interface information
provided by the SIS commands.

The basic format for an Extron SSI is:

<!—#echo var=”x”—>

Where x is the SIS command to be executed.

The SIS instructions sent to IP Link-enabled products fall into
two categories: “host” or “remote”.

1.

Host

commands instruct the IP Link product to act or

respond.

2.

Remote

commands pass data to an external control

port on an IP Link product.

When a Web page is requested, the Web server removes the SSI
and replaces it with the answer to the SIS command within
quotes.

Figure 4-22 — Example of SSI “host” command

In figure 4-22 above, the “N” command is used to request the IP
Link product’s part number.
