Hardware Reference Manual – DXLink™ Twisted Pair 4K Transmitters/Receivers
NetLinx Programming of DXLink Receivers
Overview
IMPORTANT:
The information in this Chapter does not pertain to the 4K HDMI Wallplate TX as the device does not communicate with
or receive control from NetLinx Studio.
NOTE:
Transmitters referenced in this chapter must meet the compatibility requirements described in the “DXLink Compatibility
Appendix” on page 89.
IMPORTANT:
Before DXLink Modules can receive any NetLinx SEND_COMMANDs, the DIP switch’s #3 Toggle must be set to ON or the
devices will not be accessible from a NetLinx control system.
DXLink Modules recognize a select number of SEND_COMMANDs and CHANNELs.
Receiver Video SEND_COMMANDs – page 49
Receiver Audio SEND_COMMANDs – page 52
IR SEND_COMMANDs and CHANNELs – page 53
SERIAL SEND_COMMANDs – page 56
Receiver USB SEND_COMMANDs – page 57
Common DXLink Receiver SEND_COMMANDs – page 58
DXLink System SEND_COMMANDs – page 59
SEND_STRING Escape Sequences – page 60
NOTE:
For a listing of all supported Telnet commands, see page 69.
Device Numbering and Ports
Each DXLink Module has its own Device Number (which is assigned when the unit is bound to a Master) and the following ports.
Receiver Module Port Numbering
Port 1 – Serial
Port 2 – Not used
Port 3 – IR TX
Port 4 – IR RX
Port 5 – USB
Port 6 – Video/Audio Output
Port 7 – Video/Audio Input
NOTE:
For an example of port numbering, see the NetLinx Studio illustration in FIG. 25 on the next page.
IMPORTANT:
Best practices for using SEND_COMMANDs with DXLink endpoints include sending commands to the specific input or
output port of the Enova DGX switcher (i.e., 5002:4:0 for input/output channel 4). For a complete list of NetLinx Programming
Commands, Channels, Levels, and Port mapping see the “Enova DGX 100 Series Digital Media Switchers Hardware Reference Manual”
