Control Logics are specific device behaviors that have been programmed into the NetLinx Code
either through Modules, System Calls or Include files. A list of the applicable Control Logics will
appear in the Control Logics combo box.
IR Data:
The IR Data section allows you to configure a number of settings for IR
controlled devices. The IR File field displays the currently selected IR file (read-only).
You can select an IR file using the
Browse
or
Search
buttons.
The
Search
button (binoculars icon) brings up the Search for IR File dialog, which
allows you to search by
Manufacturer
,
Hand Control Model
#
or
Device Model #
.
Once an IR file has been selected the information about the IR file is extracted and is
displayed in the text fields below the IR File area (at the bottom of the Search for IR Files
dialog).
IR File
: Use the
Browse
and/or
Search
buttons to locate and select the IR file to be
associated with this IR-controlled device.
Manufacturer, Hand Control Model #, Device Model #, Info
: These read-only
fields are populated with information, once an IR file has been associated with this
device. When any IR-controlled device is selected, two additional tabs become
available on this dialog:
Serial Data
: Click the down-arrow to open a drop-down list of all supported baud rates
for serial control. Click to select the appropriate baud rate for the serial-controlled device.
This field is only enabled if Serial was selected as the Control Method, and if the device
does not have a default baud rate setting.
•
Control Method radio buttons
: Use the radio buttons to specify the method of control for this
device (IR, Serial or IP). This selection determines the other
options that are enabled in this tab.
Note
: If a Video Display device (such as a Projector/Plasma and TV) is chosen to be controlled
via Serial (RS-232), two new fields become available within the Device Data section: the
Use
remote serial interface
option, and a
port selection
drop-down list. Place a checkmark in the
Use remote serial interface checkbox to indicate that you are using an external serial interface
(leave it unchecked to use a Serial port on the Master).
If this option is checked, you can choose which port on the COM card to use by choosing a port
from the drop-down list. This was implemented to communicate to some display devices that are
not located near the Master.
• Control Logic:
Select a type of control logic from this drop-down list, if appli-
cable.
If
IR
is selected, you must locate the associated IRL file by using the Browse or
Search buttons. If you are using
Serial
as a Control Method, choose the device from
the Control Logic drop-down list.
All options in the IR Data section of this tab are disabled if
Serial
or
IP
was selected
as the Control Method.
