Programming the PC Presenter

This section describes how to program the PC Presenter. Before programming, make sure the PC Presenter is properly installed:

Verify that the PC keyboard and mouse are connected to the AXR-MSE, and the

AXR-MSE is connected to the keyboard and mouse ports on the CPU.

Device DIP switch settings (on the front panel of the AXR-MSE) match the device number assigned to it in the Axcess program.

There are two primary ways to use the PC Presenter: Stand-alone operation (not connected to AXlink), and AXlink operation. In stand-alone mode, the PC Presenter controls PC keyboard and mouse functions. Connected to a Central Controller via AXlink, the PC Presenter can control devices on the AXlink bus.

For information on installing the PC Presenter, refer to the Installing the PC Presenter for AXlink Operation section.

Programming the PC Presenter in Stand Alone Mode

The PC Presenter has two modes of programming in stand-alone mode: command mode, in which you give specific commands to the PC Presenter, and programming mode, in which you assign specific PC keystrokes to pushbuttons on the transmitter.

Using PC Presenter Commands

The PC Presenter has a set of six commands that allow you to clear the PC Presenter memory, list the commands, list the keycodes stored in PC Presenter memory (in both short and long form), display the amount of memory available in the PC Presenter, and display firmware version and copyright information.

To use the PC Presenter commands:

1.Begin at a DOS prompt on the PC that is connected to the AXR-MSE.

2.At the DOS prompt, enter program mode by selecting and holding the following keys on the PC keyboard:

CTRL, then ALT then "." (period key).

For PC keyboards with left and right <Ctrl> and <Alt> keys, only the left<Ctrl><Alt> "." combination will work.

3.When these keys are released, program mode will be indicated by the following characters at the DOS prompt:

C:\>rem Press command key or transmitter button
