Device Control

The system, including the IPCP and the IPL EXP, must be configured in one of the following ways before it will
send commands to a projector, display, or other device:
• An IR, RS-232, or Ethernet driver file can be downloaded from the Extron website
(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 control processor and any expansion interfaces, button
panels, and touchpanels that work with it. The configuration file is built and uploaded to the IPCP 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.
See the Global Configurator Help File (which comes with the software) or the help files for Global Scripter or
the ControlScript Deployment Utility for details on setting up the IPL EXP and the IPCP and for downloading,
programming, or configuring device control commands.
