Example 4: Sending Commands To Other Linked Units - Polycom EFIR11 Instruction Manual

E 4: S C L U
XAMPLE ENDING OMMANDS TO OTHER INKED NITS
For this example, we will take advantage of the BROADA command. This command let's
one Vortex broadcast to other Vortexes.
Let's say that we have a EF2280 and a EF2241 that are linked via EF Bus in a system.
We want the Mute On and Mute Off commands to mute the audio to the telephone
hybrid in the EF2241 and we also want to mute the audio to a codec that is connected
to Input and Output C of the EF2280.
First, make sure that the EF2280 is at Device ID 0 and the EF2241 is at Device ID 03.
Next, go to the Macros page of Conference Composer and scroll down until you see
M 52. Now, left click your mouse under the C column and type:
ACRO OMMAND
BROADA:F00MUTEOC1
Next, go to Macro 55 and type:
BROADA:F00MUTEOC0
The syntax for the BROADA command is that whatever text follows the colon will be
broadcast to all other linked Vortexes. In this example, we are broadcasting
F00MUTEOC1 (Output C Mute On) and F00MUTEOC0 (Output C Mute Off) to an
EF2280. As long as the command is spelled correctly and is in uppercase (all
commands need to be in uppercase), then the EF2280 will receive and process the
command.
