APWeb – Initial Setup by Network Admin
Customizing the Control Options
APWeb's two options for controlling an AMX AutoPatch Routing System are the XBar Controller and
custom macros (switches that execute simultaneously).
Customizing the XBar
The XBar displays the crosspoints for the input and output channels. The three options for customizing
the XBar are:
Enabling Audio Control
If the system has audio, volume and input gain controls are available from the XBar, but must be enabled
first from the Configuration page.
Important: If the system does not have audio, volume and input gain must not be enabled.
To enable audio control in the XBar:
1.
From any page in the site, click the Configuration link.
2.
Under Audio Support, select Allow Gain Control and/or Allow Volume Control.
3.
Click Apply. The next time the XBar is launched, the enabled audio features are available.
After audio adjustments are made, you can disable one or both of these feature so the user cannot change
the settings (the settings will remain until audio is enabled again and new adjustments are made).
Setting the Size of the XBar Window
The size of the XBar applet can be changed from the Configuration page. The default size for the
window is 800x580. You may need to experiment a little to find the optimal display size for your PC.
To set the size of the XBar applet window:
1.
If the XBar is open, close before proceeding.
2.
From any page in the site, click the Configuration link.
3.
Under Applet Window Size, enter the desired width and height for the window.
4.
Click Apply. The next time the XBar is launched, it will open at the new setting size.
Setting the Initial VM to Display
From the Configuration page, the initial routing level (VM) can be set for executing switches. The VM is
displayed in the VM title block in the upper left corner of the XBar. The default VM for executing
switches that will display for all XBar Controllers that are launched for the system can be specified on
the Configuration page.
To set the initial routing level (virtual matrix) that will display in the XBar:
1.
From any page in the site, click the Configuration link.
2.
Under Initial VM to Display in XBar Controller, enter the virtual matrix number (routing level).
Note: If you want the default VM to be the first virtual matrix (level) discovered during bootup
(no matter what its number), enter a value of -1.
3.
Click Apply. The next time the XBar is launched, the newly designated default VM (level) will
display in the VM title block.
