About the MLC 55, 62 and 64 Series Configuration Program

An MLC controller must be configured in order for it to be able to control other devices.
The MLC 55, 62 and 64 Series Configuration Program enables you to set up the MLC
front panel buttons and rear panel ports and to update firmware. Using this software,
you can create configurations on your computer for your MLC and then upload them to
the computer via the MLC USB or Host/Config serial port. (The MLC does not have to be
connected to the computer while you are creating the configurations.) See the
Installation, and Operation
other details on the configuration ports, and the configuration software help file to create
and upload the configurations.
NOTE: Extron recommends configuring and controlling the MLC via the USB port.
