Programming AMX Controllers for a Kaleidescape System

Page 66

Appendix G: Module v8.4 Commands

All of the commands in this appendix are sent to a virtual device passed to the

module. The commands can be sent in the Kaleidescape Multiple Panel Include file, in a

program or even from the text console. All commands are case-insensitive.

Syntax

send_command <virtual device> '<command> [<value>]'

Any command sent to the module not listed below is forwarded directly to the

corresponding Kaleidescape zone as a protocol command. This allows the

programmer to use commands that are in the protocol but not used by the module.

Whole module commands

This set of commands controls the entire module and can be sent through any of

the defined virtual devices.

Cover Host Override

Overrides the host used to download cover art. Use this command in installations

where the AMX controller is connecting to the Kaleidescape System through a NAT

firewall and the IP address in the cover art URL is incorrect. This can happen

because the Kaleidescape System true IP is masked behind the NAT router. In this

situation, the IP address that the module reports to the touch panel for cover art

must be set to the NAT firewall address using this command.

Syntax

'Cover Host Override <address>'

Example

'Cover Host Override 64.32.120.10'

Debug

Use to enable or disable the debugging output for the module.

Syntax

'Debug [off]'

Examples

'debug' //enable debugging output

'debug off' //disable debugging output
