Programming AMX Controllers for a Kaleidescape System

Page 19

Kaleidescape module

Kaleidescape provides a single control module for either standalone touch panel

(SATP), onscreen display (OSD), or keypad controls. The Kaleidescape module is

designed to control all zones in the Kaleidescape System via a single connection.

Each playback zone is represented by a virtual device in the array passed to the

module. To configure the zone controlled by each virtual device, use send

commands in the Kaleidescape Multiple Panel Include file.

These virtual devices act as actual devices and use the standard AMX channel

lineup. For example, if channel 1 is pulsed on the virtual device, the PLAY command

is issued to the corresponding zone. Channel 2 sends Stop, channel 3 sends Pause,

and so forth. This feature provides a great degree of flexibility for the programmer.

 A touch panel can trigger channels and receive feedback via the virtual

device.

 A one-way remote can use the virtual device as though the virtual device

were an IR device.

 Feedback events from the virtual device can trigger other actions.

Downloading and importing the Kaleidescape module for AMX

Always download the latest module before starting a new program or modifying an

old one. Use the following steps to download and import the Kaleidescape module

and templates for the AMX system.

1. Download the Kaleidescape module and templates ZIP file (Download all

AMX files) from the Support page on the Kaleidescape website

(www.kaleidescape.com/support) and extract the files.

2. To use the Kaleidescape module in an existing program, copy the following

files into the project folder:

 Kaleidescape.axs

 Kaleidescape.tko

 Kaleidescape.tkn

 Kaleidescape Multiple Panel Include.axi

3. In the main program, define the port for the AMX system to use to connect

to the Kaleidescape System. If using TCP/IP communications, define a local

port for the module to use. Verify that the port is not already used

somewhere else in the program.

DEFINE_DEVICE

KALEIDESCAPE_PORT = 0:4:0

4. If using RS-232 communications, define the RS-232 port connected to the

Kaleidescape component.

DEFINE_DEVICE

KALEIDESCAPE_PORT = 5001:1:0

1 2 ... 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 ... 74 75
