Control Command Settings - IDK MSD-5401 User Manual

8.12 Control Command Settings

You can control external devices (for example, turning ON/OFF projectors) using Serial, LAN, Tally output or
CEC. You can register up to 32 commands in the MSD. Associate registered commands with one of 98
operating conditions (for example, switching control command execution keys, COMMANDs A to I, and
switching video/audio). When execution conditions are met, the associated commands are performed
according to the set execution order. The loop back function allows you to control the commands of MSD
itself.

In order to control external devices using a communication, select the correct mode as follows:
Serial: set "8.10.2 Operation mode" to "TRANSMITTER"
LAN: set "8.11.4 Operation mode" to "TRANSMITTER"
Tally output: set "8.15.1 Assigning functions" to a control command output.
When a control command is executed, the user setting for the text of "MEMO" is displayed (Example 1), and if
the reply command is received, the "MEMO" text registered for the reply command is also displayed (Example
2) for one second (when the control command that is used for checking the reply command is executed).
The received data is displayed (Example 3) for two seconds (when the control command that is used for
displaying the received data is executed).
However, if you configure several control commands, or if you display data received from several com ports,
the display time may be shortened by one to two seconds while control commands are being successively
executed. If the received data does not fit in the full screen, the displayed data is scrolled.
