Configuring an input button

Input buttons on the MLC 104 include the following, grouped together on the MLC front panel: VCR, DVD, PC, and a blank button for custom use.

NThe steps in the following example require using a serial port driver.

To configure the DVD button to switch to a DVD player when pressed, do the following:

1.	Select the Front Panel tab.
2.	Choose the green DVD input button.

3.Notice that the default in Line 1 (a caption field) reads DVD. You can change this to a different name, if desired, and set the tool tip, repeat rate, and button mode, if applicable.

4.	In the Button Operations area, select the Driver tab
	and expand the tree under the Epson PowerLite 7700p
	projector icon. A list of possible projector operations
	appears.

5.Expand the Input Control folder to view the input control options.

6.Drag the Video icon (under Input Control) over to either of the right-side window fields labeled Press or Release. The field you choose determines whether the command will activate on the press of the button or on the release of it.

Notice that the Epson PowerLite 7700p projector now appears under your chosen Press or Release field, and the DVD button is marked with a red triangle. This indicates that the DVD button is now configured.

Configuring the On and Off buttons

Grouped within the Display section of the MLC 104 IP Plus front panel, the On/Off buttons can be used to power a projector on or off.

To configure the on/off buttons, do the following:

1.	In the window under the Front Panel tab, click the yellow
	On button on the MLC 104 front panel.
2.	In the Button Operations area, expand the tree under the
	Epson PowerLite 7700p projector icon. A list of operations
	appears.
3.	Expand the Power Control folder to view the options.

4.Drag the On icon to the right-side window field labeled Release. This sets the command to activate on the release of the button.

NFailure to configure the On or Off buttons on Release may cause problems with the PIN Mode feature. Refer to the MLC 104 IP Plus User's Manual for details.

Notice that the Epson PowerLite 7700p projector now appears under the Release field, and the front panel On button is marked with a red triangle. This indicates that the On button is now configured.

5. To configure the Off button, repeat steps 1 through 4, selecting Off.

Step 7: Configure the Control Modules Using the Auto Fill Feature

Control modules are optional hardware keypads that can be used to trigger IR and serial control commands. Once added to the system, each button can have a function associated with it.

The Auto Fill feature automatically associates the correct IR commands with control module buttons for the selected IR driver. For example, the Play command is automatically assigned to the Play button of the control module keypad.

1. From the left pane IP Link tab, select Address 1 beneath the folder called "Control Modules".

NGlobal Configurator automatically recognizes any control module currently connected to the controller. The IRCM-DV+ appears at Address 1 and 2 or Address 3 and 4. If Address x IRCM-DV+ [DVD] is already shown in the MLC 104 IP Plus tree view, skip steps 2 and 3 below, and proceed to step 4.

2.	Select IRCM-DV+in the Available Control Module section.
3.	Double-click the selection, then click the OK button on
	the message box that appears. This adds the IRCM-DV+
	[DVD] module to the configuration.
