Control Software for Windows
The included graphical control software for Windows offers
another way to control the TSC 100 via RS-232/422 in addition
to the Simple Instruction Set commands listed on the previous
pages. The TSC 100 uses Extron’s Signal Enhancement Products
Control Program, which is included with these interfaces. The
control software is compatible with Windows 3.1x, Windows 95/
98, and Windows NT.
Installing the software
To install the software onto the hard drive, run SETUP.EXE from
the floppy disk, and follow the instructions that appear on the
screen. The program requires approximately 2 MB (megabytes)
of hard disk space.
By default the installation creates a C:\TSC 100 directory, and it
places two icons (TSC 100 Control Pgm and TSC 100 Help) into
a group or folder named “Extron Electronics”.
Using the software
To run the control program, follow these steps:
1 . Double-click on the TSC 100 Control Pgm icon in the
Extron Electronics group. The Comm menu will appear
on the screen.
