HID Devices
A list is available of HID devices which have been tested and found to be working well with the latest firmware (see “DXLink - HID
supported Devices” on the DXLink Receiver’s product page at www.amx.com).
USB LED
The USB LED on the front of a Transmitter or Receiver Module monitors the USB port on the rear of the unit. The USB LED
illuminates (yellow) when a USB device is detected (the port default is “enabled”).
To disable the port on the Transmitter, either disconnect the cable or send the following SEND_COMMAND:
USB_HID_SERVICE-
DISABLE
. The enable/disable command persists through power cycling. To enable the port, send:
USB_HID_SERVICE-ENABLE
.
The USB ports support a limited number of SEND_COMMANDs, see page 77.
HDCP Compliance
If the connected downstream sink is not HDCP compliant, then the HDMI output on the Receiver will not send the signal. This does
not affect additional displays the source may be routed to, i.e., HDCP compliant displays will still show content from the source
device even when the source device is also routed to non-compliant displays. Non-compliant devices can be easily identified
because they display a dark red image or an orange image to indicate the authentication process failed.
IR Control on DX-TX, HDMI TX, and DX-RX (Optional)
The following two items are required for IR control. In addition, a compatible remote control unit can be used with the system. (The
two items listed are not included with the modules.)
IR03
– External IR Receiver Module (FG-IR03). The IR03 can be connected to the IR RX port on the DX-TX or HDMI TX or to
the IR RX port on the DX-RX, allowing IR signals to be received from a compatible IR remote control. The IR03 allows the
DX-TX or HDMI TX to be placed behind the display device if desired.
CC-NIRC
– NetLinx IR Emitter Cable (FG10-000-11). The CC-NIRC can be connected to the IR TX port on the Transmitter
or to the IR TX port on the DX-RX. This allows IR signals to be sent to the source device from the DX-TX or HDMI TX or to
the display device from the Receiver.
