Integrating DXLink TXs and RXs in NetLinx Studio
DXLink Transmitters and Receivers must have their DIP switch toggles set before they will display as part of a Enova
DGX system in NetLinx Studio (v3.5.960 or later is required). In NetLinx Studio, the DXLink TXs and RXs can be
bound to the integrated Master by right-clicking on the device and selecting Network Bind/Unbind Device.
DIP Switch Toggles
The following table contains some of the most common scenarios for setting up DXLink Transmitters and Receivers
with an Enova DGX Switcher (the default for all four DIP switch toggles is OFF).
Important: Find the scenario in the table below that you want to use and set the DIP switches accordingly.
The DIP switches are on the bottom of the DXLink Modules, on the rear of the DXLink Wallplate, and on the front of the
DXLink Decor Style Wallplate (hidden by front cover plate). A detailed description of functions for each toggle is
provided in the Instruction Manual – DXLink™ Twisted Pair Transmitters/Receiver at www.amx.com
.
* Connect the ICS LAN 10/100 port of the DXLink unit to the network device (e.g., laptop, IP controlled projector,
AMX ICSLan EXB device).
Tip: Each toggle’s ON position is toward the connectors on the rear of the DXLink Modules or toward the top
of the unit for the DXLink Wallplate TXs and Decor Wallplate TXs.
Binding DXLink TXs and RXs to Enova DGX Integrated Master
After you set the DIP switches per the table above, follow the instructions below to display the DXLink units in NetLinx
Studio.
To bind DXLink units to Enova DGX integrated Master:
1.
Verify the following:
a. Verify that an Ethernet/RJ-45 cable is connected from the Enova DGX Switcher’s integrated Master to the
network (e.g., from the switcher’s LAN 100/1000 port to a LAN).
b. Verify that the target Transmitter or Receiver is connected via its DXLink connector to a DXLink Input or
Output Board (respectively) on the switcher.
c. Verify that the switcher is powered on.
2. Launch NetLinx Studio and open the OnLine Tree.
3. Bind the target Transmitter or Receiver to the integrated Master:
a. Select and right-click the TX or RX.
b. From the context sensitive menu, select Network Bind/Unbind Device (be sure the check box is selected).
c. Click OK.
Note: For additional information on DXLink Modules and Wallplates, see the “Instruction Manual – DXLink™
Twisted Pair Transmitters/Receiver.”
