Creating a virtual I/O switching system (map)
www.camboard.de
CAMBOARD Electronics
The following detailed example uses the Virtualization/Control software to create a
virtual I/O switching system within the physical hardware. This process generates
and uploads a virtual map to the Matrix 12800 hardware.
The physical Matrix 12800 system consists of from one to nine BMEs, each of which
can have as many as 128 inputs and 128 outputs in 1 to 7 virtual planes.
Create a virtual I/O switching map as follows:
1.
Ensure that all BMEs that are part of the system have been connected to each
other and their BME numbers have been set correctly. Connect a serial cable
between the PC and the Primary RS-232/RS-422 port on BME 0. Power up
the Matrix 12800 system. See chapter 2, Installation.
On the PC, click Start>Programs>Extron Electronics>Matrix 6400+12800 Control
2.
Program to start the program. The Comm Port Selection window (figure 3-1)
appears. You will be asked to select the appropriate PC Comm port, the
Ethernet port, or to select Emulate mode. For this example, select an RS-232
port, but do not click OK yet.
3.
Check the baud rate displayed in the comm port selection window. Available
rates are 9600, 19200, 38400, and 115200. The default is 9600.
If you need to change the baud rate, click the Baud button and double-click
the desired baud rate.
Click OK.
