  • Page 5: Introduction

    Introduction Introduction Overview Design XPress was designed with the sole purpose of reducing the amount of programming and integration time required for an installation. Design XPress was designed to give the dealer/installer a quick start on the custom installations by quickly setting up common controls. For installations where one install is relatively similar to another, Design XPress can generate 90 - 100% of the software required.

  • Page 15: Using Netlinx Studio

    Using NetLinx Studio Using NetLinx Studio Upon completion of the Design XPress application the next step is to use NetLinx Studio to open the created project file. From this point on, this document will assume the installer has a good understanding of NetLinx Studio (it can be a difficult installation if the installer is a first time Design XPress user and a first time NetLinx Studio user).

  • Page 16: Addressing The System

    Using NetLinx Studio Addressing the System The NetLinx NXI system used by Design XPress consists of two devices: the master and the NXI (serial ports, relays, IR ports, and I/O ports). Each is addressed separately on the NetLinx bus with a unique device ID.

  • Page 17: Downloading Software And Transferring Files

    Downloading Software and Transferring Files In order for the system to operate, the NetLinx program and all supporting files (touch panels, DMS keypads, IR files, text files, etc.) must be downloaded to the master. NetLinx studio can be used for most downloads, but any file in the Other branch of the project tree will need to be loaded on the master using FTP (file transfer protocol).

  • Page 18: Startup

    Using NetLinx Studio 1. Launch Windows Explorer, and navigate to the directory where your Design XPress project is located. 2. Locate and select every TXT file in the project folder. Be sure to select every TXT file, and only TXT files. 3.

    The Address and Button # fields in the House Lighting Scenes dialog correspond to either the lighting controller address and the preset number (as with AMX Radia), or the address of the keypad and the keypad button that will be emulated (as with the LiteTouch controller).

  • Page 20: Format Of Ir Files For Audio Sources

    In some cases the IR file for new equipment may not have been captured or is not available for download from the AMX website. Or perhaps the IR file is available on the web but one or two codes were not captured in the right channels. In these cases it may be necessary for the installer to capture the IR codes or, at least, modify the IR file.
  • Page 21 Similarly, a Satellite receiver can be used for a Dish Network receiver. The lower numbered channels are standard functions for all devices, with some deviation in the higher numbered channels. Typically AMX has a standard for the lower IR channels and device functions.
