ESD WARNING

To avoid ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) damage to sensitive components, make sure you are properly grounded before touching any internal materials.

When working with any equipment manufactured with electronic devices, proper ESD grounding procedures must be followed to make sure people, products, and tools are as free of static charges as possible. Grounding straps, conductive smocks, and conductive work mats are specifically designed for this purpose. These items should not be manufactured locally, since they are generally composed of highly resistive conductive materials to safely drain static discharges, without increasing an electrocution risk in the event of an accident.

Anyone performing field maintenance on AMX equipment should use an appropriate ESD field service kit complete with at least a dissipative work mat with a ground cord and a UL listed adjustable wrist strap with another ground cord.

Set_DCE-1).

3. Disconnect the PC from the DCE-1, and connect the display according to the diagram on page 6. The DCE-1 can automatically execute RS232 commands to Power ON or OFF the connected projector and projection screen when an input signal change is detected.

Troubleshooting

Power: Ensure all devices are powered on.

Indicator: Ensure all LED indicators of the DCE-1 are normal according to the user manual.

Devices: Ensure picture can be shown normally when directly connecting a source to a display device.

Cable: Plug the HDMI cable in and out or connect a different HDMI cable. Ensure the specific cable length is within the available transmission range according to the Specifications Section.

EDID: There are multiple EDID presets depending on the EDID rotary switch setting. Please refer to the EDID Management Section to ensure the display works properly.

Compatibility: Test other source and display devices to determine correct compatibility.


API Command List Instructions

API Command List Instructions

General Rules for Using BCS Commands

•

Command strings typically are not case-sensitive.

•

All command strings must end with the Take command “T” which tells the system to execute the command.

•

“O” is the letter O, not the number zero (0).

•

Entering “X” at any point in a command string cancels the command.

•

A command cannot be canceled after the “T” has been entered.

•

Command strings cannot be edited. If a mistake has been made, enter an “X” and then reenter the command.

•

To specify multiple outputs, inputs, levels, or local presets, enter a space “ ” between each number. Multiple

• inputs are only valid in Disconnect commands.

•

To specify a range of outputs, inputs, or local presets, insert a colon “:” between the lowest and highest numbers of the range (not supported if the command is otherwise invalid, e.g., cannot specify a range of inputs in a Change command; the first input only would be routed).

•

Colons “:” and spaces “ ” can be used in the same command string.

•

If the level designation “L” is omitted, the command is executed on the default level, which is normally Level 0.
