Overview
Novara ControlPads and KeyPads are configured using the AMX NOVARA DCS1000 software application,
available for download from www.amx.com (FIG. 17).
The AMX NOVARA DCS1000 application allows the ControlPad to perform various functions such as RS232/
IR control / Button Feedback /Delay Time / Relay Control / Time Out if a button press is not detected after a
certain time period.
Each button is configured individually; it can be made to execute on a Press or Release.
Each button can be configured to Toggle for up to 4 Presses or it could be assigned to a Bank of
buttons having the same function but controlling different equipment.
A Script is written for each button containing events. A script can be written for events to execute
when the ControlPad is powered up by selecting ‘Start Up’ from the system window.
An Event could be an RS232 command, a button Feedback, a Delay Time etc.
When any or all of the buttons have been configured, the information can be downloaded to the
ControlPad.
Alternatively, navigate to Start > Programs > AMX NOVARA DCS, and click on the
program icon.
