Device Control
The MLC Plus must be configured in one of the following ways before it can send
commands to a projector, display, or other device:
•
•
See the Global Configurator Help File (which comes with the software) for details on setting
up the MLC Plus and for downloading, programming, or learning device control commands.
E-mail notification — The MLC can be set up to send e-mail notifications, such as a
notice that a projector has been disconnected or the projector lamp has been used for
a designated number of hours.
An MLC Plus 84 EU Application
An IR, RS-232, or Ethernet driver file can be downloaded from
the extensive Extron driver selection from the Extron website
(http://www.extron.com/download/index.aspx). The driver is saved to a folder
and commands from the driver are incorporated into the GC configuration file for the
controller. The configuration file is built and uploaded to the MLC Plus via GC.
If a driver is not already available, RS-232 or Ethernet command strings can be
entered directly from a host computer using Global Configurator. These can then be
incorporated into controls within the GC project.
