Appendix B:
Creating Your Own User Interface
You can use the CB6000 to its full potential by learning to program your own configuration files. Each CB6000 includes a
utility for creating, modifying, loading, and/or saving the configuration file. We strongly recommend that you use the fol-
lowing workflow for any custom programming:
1. Create Macros (covered in Appendix A.2) — Variables that refer to specific IP-addressable devices
2. Create Actions (covered in Appendix A.3) — Specific control commands for specific devices
3. Create Events (covered in Appendix A.4) — The kinds of situations in which you want to initiate one or more Actions
4. Create Pages (covered in Appendix B.2) — Logical groupings of buttons (e.g., DVD transport controls)
5. Create Buttons (covered in Appendix B.2) — Buttons that represent specific Events (e.g., mute)
6. Set Preferences (covered in Appendix C) — Set other parameters (e.g., timeout, security)
You can certainly deviate from this workflow, but you will probably waste some time flipping back and forth between
programming screens unnecessarily.
1. Connect to the CB6000 through A Web Browser
On a computer connected to the LAN, type in the IP address of your CB6000 — the default is 192.168.1.104 If you
have not already reassigned it (see
Step 3
for guidance).
2. Creating and Assigning Actions to Pages and Buttons
•
Choose
TScreen Buttons
You can create up to five different pages to help you nest or logically group various buttons. To work on a particular
page:
•
Click one of the
Page
buttons in the left column of the button definition interface
There are 8 available button slots on each page you create. These slots are displayed in the definition interface in
the arrangement in which they will appear on the CB6000 touch screen. Below each slot is a useful shorthand to
help you quickly review what each button has been assigned to do in the format:
[event number] -> [jump-to page number] ( [repeat or delay time] )
An ‘x’ indicates ‘no action’ — e.g.,
x-> 2(0)
means ‘No event, but jump to page 2 immediately’
