Installing and Starting the Control Program

Several useful Windows®-based programs are available on the Extron Software Products CD-ROM that is included with the switcher, including the DSP Configurator program and the Matrix Switchers Control Program. These programs are also available on the Extron Web site, www.extron.com.

The DSP Configurator program is required for full operation of most of the switcher's DSP functions and to save partial presets. It also provides some limited control of the switcher's non-DSP functions. Refer to the MPX Plus, 866 A User's Manual and the program Help file for more information.

The Matrix Switchers Control Program is another way to operate the switcher's more basic, non-DSP, functions.

Run either program on a PC connected to either of the switcher’s serial ports or the Ethernet port. See L, M, and O, on pages 2-5, for connection information. The program must be installed on a Windows-based computer and cannot be run from the CD.

NFor details on operating the programs, refer to the

MPX Plus 866 A User's Manual, chapter 5, “Matrix Software”.
