input every time. If the anchor is not 100% reliable, you will have to resort to using the “Input Manager” method.

Input Manager – For Components with only a Single “Input Toggle” Command

This is the least desirable type of preamp, television monitor, or projector to automate. Using the “Input Manager” method, the system will be able to keep track of what input the component is in at all times, even through repeated power failures and system power ups.

Whenever the end-user selects a new Master Key, the IntelliControl will calculate the required number of “Input Toggle” commands necessary to change the device from whatever input it is currently on, to the appropriate input required to enable the customer to enjoy the newly selected source.

Testing the “Input Manager” Method

The “Input Manager” is NOT RELIABLE unless the end user cannot use the component’s original remote control, or access the “Input Toggle” key on the front panel of the component (if it has one). If you cannot block access to the front panel, or the customer has identical branded televisions with remotes throughout the house, the likelihood of sync problems created by the end user is extremely high. In such an installation, the “Input Manager” method should not be used, and a Master Key should be labeled “TV Input” so that the end-user can manually change the inputs.

Determine the “Defaults”

In order to determine the “Defaults”, the way the component functions under the following circumstances must me noted in IntelliFile II. By simulating a power failure on at least two of the inputs, does the TV remember the last input selected? Or does it go to a particular input when the unit regains power? Now, do the same test, but turn the component “On” and “Off” normally. Does the TV remember the last input selected? Or does it go to a particular input every time?

3G. Master Keys: Part 4 – Intelligent System Turn Off

When the “System Off” key is pressed, the IntelliControl takes a “Snapshot” to determine which components need to be turned “Off”. The system then issues only the necessary commands to power down the components which were “On” when the “Snapshot was taken. The following “Events” occur after the “Sync Snapshot” is taken:

Event 1 - “System Off” Initial Sequence

An “Initial Sequence” of up to 26 steps may be issued to reconfigure any devices to their default positions before the system is powered down.

Note: The IR commands used to power off all of the components in the system are automatically issued from the “Preamp”, “TV”, and “Component” power memory addresses on their respective Tabs as programmed via IntelliFile II.
