Control Software for Windows

The SGS 408 Control Program, which is used by the SGS 408, is compatible with Windows 95/98/2000, and NT. It provides remote control of various functions including input selection, picture controls, effects, transitions, and output rates.

If an ECP 1000 event control panel is attached to the SGS 408, refer to the

ECP 1000 User’s Manual for information on running the SGS 408 Control

Program.

Installing the software

The program is contained on a set of 3.5-inch diskettes. To install the program from the floppy disk to the hard drive, run SETUP.EXE from the floppy disk and follow the instructions that appear on the screen. The program occupies approximately 3 MB (megabytes) of hard-drive space.

By default, the Windows installation creates a C:\SGS408 directory, and it will place two icons (SGS 408 Control Pgm and SGS 408 Help) into a group or folder named “Extron Electronics”.
