AMX design xpress home theater v1.3 ユーザーガイド

Design XPress - Home Theater (DXP-HT)™ is a software package developed to assist AMX 

dealers in quickly designing, installing and programming a home theater control system. A home 

theater control system created using DXP-HT allows the selection and control of audio/video 

sources, audio-surround modes, display devices and room lighting among other functions.

DXP-HT allows control via several types of AMX touch panels (see Supported Touch Panels for 

details). A wizard-type front-end graphic user interface (GUI) helps you to quickly step through the 

process of entering information specific to the home theater system being programmed.

The DXP-HT Project Wizard also allows you to specify the type of NetLinx Master Controller to 

be used to control the system. DXP-HT supports NetLinx Integrated Controllers (NI-700/2000/

3000/4000 and the NXI equipped with an NXC-ME260/64 Master card). The wizard will only 

allow you to choose a NetLinx Master that is able to accommodate the devices and functions 

specified in your Project.

Once the steps outlined in the wizard are complete, the wizard will automatically generate all 

NetLinx program files, touch panel files and a comprehensive report file for the system. While 

these auto-generated program files can be used as-is, they can also be modified using NetLinx 

Studio™, allowing the dealer to customize the NetLinx code and touch panel files to accommodate 

specific client desires and those unique requirements always found in custom installations.

 

This manual will take you through the steps required to generate a system using DXP-HT.

Features new to v 1.3 include: 

 

Enhanced Automation: This new selectable option (in the Touch Panel Interfaces 

dialog), allows you to exclude specific buttons from the Navigation menu, such as 

Display, Lights, Macros, and Relay buttons. It also allows you to customize the DXP-HT 

generated touch panel file information by copying buttons from the underlying pages and 

providing that functionality onto the current page.

De-select these radio buttons to specify which buttons will be excluded from the output 

touch panel pages (within the project file) for the chosen touch panel.

Refer to the Touch Panel Interfaces dialog section on page 42 for details.

 

Support for additional Modero Touch Panels: DXP-HT now supports the following 

additional Modero panels: NXT/NXD-CV7 (7" Touch Panel with video), MVP-7500 

(Wireless Panel), and MVP-8400 (Wireless Video Panel). See the Modero (G4) touch 

panels section on page 5 for a full listing of supported G4 panels.
