USING THE SmartControl SOFTWARE
RS-232: Controlling the MXCORE32X32 has never been simpler with SmartControl software. With Smart-
Control, you can assign a unique name to each port on the MXCORE32X32 , as well as each display, cus-
tomizing projects to meet your needs. Although all the functions of the matrix are available locally on the
front panel of the MXCORE32X32 , using SmartControl allows for customization of all the matrix func-
tions.
Download the Smart Control Pro software from the Smart-AVI website. www.smartavi.com
Double click SmartControlPro-v5-0-03_Installer.exe in order to initiate software installation.
Click Install. After installation has completed, click CLOSE.
In order to use the software, click on the START button>Programs>SmartControl Pro.
There you should see a help file, the SmartControl Pro launcher as well as a shortcut to uninstall
SmartControl Pro. Click on SmartControl Pro in order to launch the software. When the software starts
you will see a screen like this:
Advanced Configuration:
If you have more than one Router in-
stalled you will want to check this box.
Router Type:
Select HDR 32X32
Inputs/Outputs:
Enter the number of Inputs/Outputs your
MXCORE32X32
has.
Com Port:
See the section in this manual on establishing an RS-232 connection for instructions on how to identify
the com port number.
Router Time out:
This field is set to 0.2 by default, meaning the computer acknowledges commands almost instantly.
Sometimes a computer takes longer to respond. This setting should be left at 0.2. Try longer timeout set-
tings if router error messages occur.
After you have entered in the necessary information click OK. This will now take you to the Main Routing
Window where you can route the different video/audio connections.
