DXP-HT v1.3 - On-Site Installer’s Guide
Downloading Software and Transferring Files
In order for the system to operate, the NetLinx program and all supporting files (touch panel files,
IR files, text files, etc.) must be downloaded to the master. NetLinx studio can be used for most
downloads, but any file in the Other branch of the project tree will need to be loaded on the master
using FTP (file transfer protocol).
This document will assume the user knows how to download files using NetLinx Studio. Compile
the main software file (main.axs) and download it to the master. Download all touch panel files and
IR files for each audio source. Since the include files are compiled into the main program there is
no need to download them individually.
All other files such as CD titles, DSS favorites, and tuner presets must be downloaded using an FTP
program. There are many of these available on the web, most of them freeware. Connect to the
master and download all of the required files into the root directory (top-most directory) of the
master.
Once everything is downloaded, the master will require a reboot to load the new configuration.
Running the First Time
The master ships with a default message buffer threshold which may be too small for the Design
XPress system. Fortunately there is a solution to this problem.
Telnet to the master by going to the Windows Start Menu and selecting Run (alternatively, you can
launch a TelNet session through NetLinx Studio, via the Tools menu).
Enter the command
TELNET AA.BB.CC.DD
, where
AA.BB.CC.DD
is the IP address of the master
(ex.
TELNET 192.168.0.2
). Log in to the master and enter the following command:
SET THRESHOLD
.
The system will prompt for three threshold values: Interpreter , LonTalk , and IP. Set each of these to
a value of 500 .
Exit the telnet session by issuing the command
EXIT
. Reboot the NetLinx master for the changes to
take effect. The changes will be permanent, so each time the system restarts it will start with the
higher threshold values.
Startup
When the Master boots it is a bit tricky to determine when the system is completely operational.
Each touch panel connected to the system displays a message box "System is ready" indicating that
the reboot is complete, and the system is ready to operate. In addition, the panels will flip to the
Logo page when they are ready. Depending on the number of devices, touch panels, etc. on the
system, the reboot could take several minutes.
