AVPROEDGE|MV41IP|3.00

Introduction

This driver has been designed to provide two-way control of AVPRO EDGE AC-MV-41, via TCP/IP. Ensure the device is connected to the same network as the RTI processor and is accessible through its web interface. It is recommended the device be set up with a static IP or reserved address on the router. Please make sure the device is correctly set up and working independently before integration with this driver.

We have also provided a list of source images with this demo. To use these graphical images:- Go to the default directory for Integration Designer files: My Documents\Integration Designer\Bitmap Libraries

- Create a new folder

- Place custom graphics in this new folder

Source images will appear as a new graphics library in the Bitmap Library Browser, identified by the name of the folder you have created. This custom library will appear each time you open Integration Designer.

Multi-View UI

• Layout Selection – This is a viewport that allows you to swipe through all available multi view layouts. Select a layout to recall it on the unit. The Layout will be highlighted if it is currently active.

• Window Selection – This is a visual representation of the current layout. It highlights when selected. The text inside the window is the currently select input.

• Input Selection – After a window has been selected you can select a input. This will switch the window to the new input.

• Audio Selection – as with the window selection this allows you to select what audio you would like to listen to. After this has been selected press the input button in section 3.

• Presets – This shows a preset management layer. You can save the current multi view setup or recall a saved setup.

Troubleshooting

If the driver cannot control the AVPRO EDGE AC-MV-41 system, confirm the following:

The Ethernet switch used by the AVPRO EDGE AC-MV-41 system is correctly connected to the same network as the RTI processor.

The correct IP address is defined in the RTI driver properties for the AVPRO EDGE AC-MV-41 control interface.

Please be aware if you update to version 2.0

• Due updating the Device description, the existing player sources should manually be renamed to Multi-View.

• Check all Audio Programming previously implemented if you are using tagging provided by the driver. This is due to four new sources for Zone 1-4 and changing the existing source to be called Multiview
