AVPro Edge | ConferX | 3.00

Introduction

This driver has been designed to provide two-way control of AVPro Edge ConferX Series of devices, via TCP/IP and Serial (RS232) Ensure that the device is connected to the same network as the RTI processor and is accessible through its web interface. It is recommended that the device is 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.
