AMX DESIGN XPRESS HOME THEATER V1.3 - PROGRAMMER GUIDE Instruction Manual page 10

Introduction
If a Video Display (such as a Projector/Plasma and TV) are chosen to be controlled
via Serial (RS-232), two new fields become available within the Device Data section.
Place a checkmark in the Use remote serial interface field to indicate you are using
an external serial interface or leave it unchecked to use a Serial port on the Master.
DXP-HT is not intended to support 3rd party (free) VNC clients that are downloadable
from the Internet.

Support for NI-700 NetLinx Integrated Controller: This new controller is treated the
same as any of the other NI Series of Integrated Controllers. If the project requires more
ports than the NI-700 can provide (2 Serial and 1 IR), it is disabled as a system controller
option.
Support For Output Zones on MAX Servers: When adding a MAX (IMS or MMS)
Media Server as a device to your project, you can now specify an Output Zone number.
The Output Zone must be unique per each server used in a project. For example, if a
system has two MMS servers, each MMS could have an Output Zone 1.
Support of remote serial interface (for Display devices): This new option (in the
Device Configuration dialog - Device Data tab for serial devices) provides far-end
control of display devices using serial control ports. This feature allows you to extend the
"reach" of the control system to control an external display device directly by parsing out
Send Commands to the Serial control ports. This was implemented to communicate to
some display devices that are not located near the Master.
If this option is checked, you can choose which port on the serial interface to use by
choosing a port from the drop-down list.
Support for i!-TimeManager: This new option (in the System Information dialog),
prompts you to select a time zone and apply Daylight Savings Time rules, if desired.
Refer to the Configuring i!-TimeManager section on page 64 for details.
Support for i!-Weather: This new support appears as a Source Type (in the Device Data
tab of the Device Configuration dialog).
i!-Weather is treated as a source type and not a controlled source.
Only one instance of i!-Weather is allowed within the Source list.
Refer to the Configuring i!-Weather section on page 63 for details.
Support for G4 Computer Control: This new support appears as a Source Type (in the
Device Data tab of the Device Configuration dialog). G4 Computer Control (G4CC) can
be configured as a source type within a system and is also available for use within every
touch panel that resides within the same system.
Refer to the Configuring Computer Control (G4CC) section on page 62 for details.
