DXP-HT v1.3 - Programmer’s Guide
The
Program Function List
is on the right side of the screen. The
Program Function List
is populated with the supported functions for the Device Type selected on the Device
Data tab.
Mapping a Function
1.
Click on the desired IR function on the
IR Function List
and click on the associated function in
the
Program Function List
.
2.
Then, click on the button with the three right facing arrows, "
>>>
", and the IR Function Name
and the Channel are copied across to the Program Function List.
Removing a Mapped Function
Click on the button with the three left facing arrows, "<<<", and the IR Function Name will be
deleted and the Channel will be returned to its default.
The four command buttons across the bottom of the window are used to speed up the IR mapping
process:
Un-Map All
- Returns all functions in the Program Function List to their default settings
and clears all IR Function Names.
Auto Assign
- Pairs matching Channel numbers on the IR Function List and the Program
Function List and copies across the IR Function Names.
Un-Map Current Selection
- Removes the IR Function Name for the selected item in the
Program Function List, and resets the channel to the default channel number.
Function Not Used
- Sets the IR Function Name to "Not Used" and zeros the channel
number for the item selected in the Program Function List. Any IR functions that are
either labeled as "Not Used", or that are unmapped (left with the default value of zero)
will not appear anywhere in the functions list or anywhere else, since they are considered
to be unused by the system.
The
OK
button saves the IR Mapping and returns to the System Information Page.
The
Cancel
button discards all changes and returns to the System Information Page.
When adding multiple devices of similar type to a Project, in some cases the devices
could have very different requirements in terms of functionality and the associated
Touch Panel pages/buttons. For example you could set up a high-end model DVD
player with full IR functionality and a second one with only basic DVD with transport
control. The Design XPress - Home Theater TPD pages for both devices will show
the same number of buttons, but many buttons for the second DVD will not work,
because functions weren't mapped to them.
Try to keep the number of functions for multiple same-type devices as close as
possible, for ease-of-use for the end user.
