Windows ® -Based Program Control
The Universal Switcher Control Program is compatible with
Windows 3.1/3.11, Windows 95/98, Windows NT, Windows
ME, and Windows 2000 and provides remote control of the
input selection for each output (including audio breakaway)
and audio gain and attenuation adjustments.
Updates to this program can be downloaded from the Extron
Web site (http://www.extron.com).
Installing the software
The program is contained on a single 3.5” diskette and can be
run from the floppy drive, or it can be installed and run from
the hard drive. To install the software on the hard drive, run
setup.exe from the floppy disk and follow the screen
instructions.
By default, the Windows installation creates a C:\UNIVSW
folder and places two icons (Universal Switcher Control
Program and Universal Switcher Help) into a group named
“Extron Electronics”.

1 . To run the software, double click on the
Universal Switcher Control Program icon in
the Extron Electronics program group.

the comm port that is connected to the MMX’s RS-232 port.
