Groups are collections of Devices and Functions. For example, a Group might include
many Devices and a Power Off function. Thus, execution of a Group will turn off the
power on all TVs.
Setting Up Brands
For each command, you must enter either an ASCII string or a hex code. What you
enter depends on the device you wish to control.
Let’s start with a typical projector, in this case the
vendor is ViewSonic. Find the vendor’s product
manual and identify the IP port used for control.
This vendor refers to “IP” as “RJ45” and tells us to
use port 4661. You will need this when you set up
the device or function.
Next you must find the desired function. From the
illustration, notice that Power / Turn On function is
hex code:
0x06 0x14 0x00 0x04 0x00 0x34 0x11 0x00 0x00 0x5D
and the Turn Off hex code is:
0x06 0x14 0x00 0x04 0x00 0x34 0x11 0x01 0x00 0x5E
In DEVOS, create a brand (e.g. “ViewSonic”) and
enter the Power On and Power Off codes.
Using the same vendor manual, find other codes
that you wish to use, for example selecting HDMI
input. Use the “+Add Command” function to add
as many additional commands as desired.
