Extron electronic IPL T PC1i manual Setting Up the System Using the Front Panel

GReset button (recessed) — Use the tip of a small Phillips screwdriver or an Extron

Tweeker (provided) to press this recessed button to reset the unit in one of five reset modes (see “Resetting,” later in this section, for details on reset modes and on using this Reset button).

HPower LED — This green LED lights while the PC1 or PC1i interface is receiving power and is running.

When the unit is being reset from the front panel, this LED blinks the appropriate number of times to indicate the reset mode the PC1 has entered (see “Resetting”).

Setting Up the System Using the Front Panel

The following system setup procedures can be performed using the front panel, Global

Configurator, the embedded web pages, or SIS commands.

This section discusses the front panel procedures. For information on using the web to set up, see “HTML Configuration and Control.” For the equivalent SIS commands, see “SIS Programming and Control.” For information on setting up using Global Configurator, see the IPL T PC1 Setup Guide.

NOTE: The PC1 takes approximately 2 minutes to store settings made via the front

panel, SIS commands, or the web pages into its memory. If you disconnect

power from the PC1 less than 2 minutes after entering a setting, your entry may be lost.

Setting Up Power Control of the Output Device

To set up power control of the output device plugged into the PC1 output power receptacle:

1.On the PC1 front panel, press and release the receptacle Power button.

The green receptacle Power LED at the right of the button lights and remains lit while the receptacle is powered on. It turns off when the receptacle is powered off.

2.Power on the device, using its own power switch.

If power is removed from the PC1, the power state of the output receptacle is preserved in flash memory; for example, if the receptacle was powered on when the PC1 was disconnected, it is powered on when the PC1 receives power again. This enables the receptacle configuration to be easily restored if a power loss occurs.

CAUTION: Some devices, such as projectors, need a cool-down period to power off safely. Use RS-232 or IR commands to power these devices.
