Windows-based Control Program

The MVP and SVS Control Program (Extron part number 29-047-01), which is used by the MVP 104GX, requires Windows 95/98, NT, or later. It provides remote control of MVP 104GX functions.

Installing the Windows®-based Control Software

The program is contained on two 3.5-inch diskettes. The program occupies approximately 1.5 MB (megabytes) of hard-drive space. Run the program from the hard drive.

To install the software from the floppy disks onto the hard drive, run SETUP.EXE from the first floppy disk, and follow the instructions that appear on the screen.

By default, the Windows installation creates a C:\MVP+SVS directory, and it places two icons (MVP+SVS Control Pgm and MVP+SVS Help) into a group folder named “Extron Electronics”.

Using the Software

1. To run the MVP and SVS Control Program, double-click on the MVP+SVS Control Pgm icon in the Extron Electronics group or folder.

The Comm menu appears on the screen.
