The files are saved to the host computer downloads folder and also saved to the SMD 101 local memory nortxe-backup folder.

Figure 35. Configuration Files

NOTES:

Using Firefox or Chrome, the config files are automatically named box.cfg and ip.cfg and saved to both the SMD 101 local memory (in the nortxe‑backup folder( and to the host computer downloads folder (or designated location if changed). From the host computer, they can be renamed or moved to a folder selected by the user with a standard file browser.

Using MS Internet Explorer, after saving the files to local memory, the browser remains on a page with only the configuration text displayed. Press the back button to return to the Player page.

IE does not save the config files to the host computer. You must save the file using cut and paste from the open web browser page, or extract the locally saved files from the SMD 101 local memory to the host computer (see Copying Config Files Using Internet Explorer on page 92).

To upload a configuration file to the same or another SMD 101:

1.Select a configuration file to upload: — This field displays the location of the configuration file for cloning a SMD 101, or to reload a custom configuration for a specific task. Click Browse to locate and select the file from the host computer or local memory.

2.Upload: — Click Upload to begin the configuration change with the selected file. Cancel stops the update and clears the Browse field.

After a configuration file (box.cfg or ip.cfg) is uploaded, the SMD 101 automatically restarts and applies the changes. The process takes about a minute.

This flexibility ensures that users can connect various components seamlessly, irrespective of their video standards. The SMD 101 supports HDMI signals, including embedded audio, while also offering the capability to manage audio signals separately, providing a comprehensive solution for users who demand high-quality sound alongside their visual content.

Another significant characteristic of the SMD 101 is its powerful scaling technology. With advanced scaling algorithms, it ensures that all video signals are converted to optimal resolutions without sacrificing image quality. This feature is particularly beneficial in environments where content from different sources is displayed simultaneously, maintaining consistent clarity and detail across diverse display types.

Moreover, the SMD 101 integrates Extron's advanced EDID management to streamline the communication between source devices and displays. This technology helps to minimize configuration issues and ensures that the best possible video output is achieved. The device also includes sophisticated audio features, such as audio de-embedding and mixing, enabling users to tailor the audio output to fit their specific requirements.

In terms of connectivity, the SMD 101 provides multiple input and output options, allowing for extensive system integration. The device interfaces easily with various control systems, giving users the ability to automate and manage their AV environments efficiently. It also supports Extron's control system protocols, enhancing its adaptability within existing setups.

Built to last, the SMD 101 features a robust design that ensures reliability in demanding environments. Its compact form factor allows for easy installation in racks, under tables, or in other tight spaces.

Overall, the Extron SMD 101 stands out as a comprehensive solution for AV signal processing and distribution, combining sophisticated features with user-friendly operation. Its cutting-edge technologies make it a powerful tool for any modern AV application, from corporate settings to educational institutions.
