Precis HT Instruction Manual

Serial Control Device Startup

If you have not already done so, attach the serial control device to the CONTROL port on the enclosure 
(see page 19) and open the control program.

AMX Control Devices

The Precis HT is compatible with a number of AMX control devices. For control programming 
information, see the instruction manual for the specific interface.

APControl 3.0

If you are using APControl 3.0, install and open the program. Follow the directions in the setup wizard. 
From the Launchbar menu, select Views / CrossBar and click on the crosspoints to execute switches.

APWeb

For startup information, see the 

APWeb Server Module

 documentation.

HyperTerminal

When power is applied to the enclosure, HyperTerminal displays a short splash screen (FIG. 18). 
The system is ready to disconnect the factory default switch and to execute a test switch (see page 28).

FIG. 18 shows an example of a short splash screen (your system’s splash screen may differ). The short 
splash screen provides the following information:

 

Appcode version

 – enclosure’s firmware version 

 

Neuron ID

 – for internal AMX AutoPatch use

 

XNet ID

 – enclosure’s XNNet identification number

Note:

 

AMX reserves the right to add to the contents of the splash screen at any time, without notice

.
