DXP-PRO v1.1 - Programmer’s Guide
Click the
Add
button to add a device to the list, via the
Device Configuration
dialog.
The
Device Configuration
dialog is used to add or edit devices in the Device Information
List. Use the options in this dialog to select the device type, the display name, control
method and other information specific to the control method.
Select a device from the list and click the
Edit
button to edit the control information
associated with that device. You can also edit a device by double clicking on a device.
Click the
Duplicate
button to duplicate a selected source and its current settings.
Select a device from the list and click the
Delete
button to delete that device from the list
and remove it from the project.
• Volume Control
Display Names:
Enter a descriptive label for each of the two different sets of controllable
volume popup pages. Any alphanumeric character (including punctuation)
can be used. Each new project should be given a unique Primary and
Secondary Volume Control Display name.
The Primary and Secondary Volume controls allow you to control
2 separate volume zones.
They are represented as two separate touch
panel popup pages within the touch panel project.
•
Primary
Volume control field - A descriptive field that labels the control of
the primary volume levels coming out from
Port 1
on the NXC-VOL4 card
(
device address 5500)
. These audio signals could come from a source
device such as program speakers.
•
Secondary
Volume control field - A descriptive field that labels the control
of the secondary volume levels coming out from
Port 2
on the
NXC-VOL4 card (
device address 5500
). These audio signals could
come from a series of ceiling speakers carrying the conference volume.
•
Note:
If you want to use an NI-4000 card slot for the NXC-VOL4, all
Device addressing DIP switches must be turned On. This will put the first
card slot address at 3061, which is the device address the wizard will
print out if you select an NI-4000 as the Master controller.
Because the
NI-700 does not have an ICSNet connector, it cannot use an
NXC-VOL4 but can use an AXB-VOL3.
• Device
Information
(Maximum of 32):
This table displays a list of all controlled devices currently in this system
(maximum of 32 devices). The devices defined here determine the dialogs
and information required by the rest of the Project Wizard.
Every device that will be controlled by the DXP-PRO system needs to be
defined within the Device Information list. The setup and configuration of
the devices is handled on subsequent dialogs in the Project Wizard, but
each device will be listed along with its Display Name, Control Method and
Control Logic, if any.
Note:
In addition, any uncontrolled devices, such as computers, that have
a switcher input or output should be defined in the Device Information list.
The Device Information List can be sorted by clicking on the column's
header cell. Clicking on the header cell will toggle between sorting in
ascending or descending order.
Certain device types, such as audio or videoconference, support just one instance -
they can not be duplicated. Therefore, the
Duplicate
button will be disabled when a
device of this type is selected.
