Setup – Name Channels
DX can now create a list of TV channels, so you can now tune by name, rather than having to remember the
number of the channel. Editing is simple. Just add the Label (Name) of the channel, select HDTV or NTSC, enter
the number, and Save. You can go back and modify the channel – handy when the cable company changes
channel locations.
Legacy Features
Where the system includes older Smart CRT TVs, you can send or clear the channel names in the TVs and well as
set list of channels the sets are allowed to tune (called Tune Rings).
HDTV sets don’t include the ability to name or control tuning. That is managed by the set’s internal channel
scanning.
TV Input/Captions Selection
It is possible to control input selection via Display Express as well. This is available for a limited list of IR controlled
sets (LG, Panasonic, Visio, and ViewSonic) and RS-232 (LG) at this date, but we can add the capability to other IR
and RS-232 sets when the need arises. Captioning does the typical IR toggling function, most sets don’t have
discrete caption on and off commands. Not all sets have every input.
You set up Inputs just like a channel, but define it as a zero HDTV channel (0-NNN). The Input codes are:
115=Captions
200=TV/Tuner
201=Video1
202=Video2
203=Video3
204=S-Video1
205=S-Video2
206=Component1
207=Component2
208=RGB1
209=RGB2
210=RGB3 211=HDMI1
212=HDMI2
213=HDMI3
214=HDMI4
215=HDMI5
