Control Software for Windows

The VSC and DDS Control Program (Extron part number 29-038-01), which is used
by the VSC 200/200D/300/300D, is compatible with Windows® 3.1, 3.11, 95/98,
and NT. It provides remote control of input selection.

Installing the Software

The program is contained on a single 3.5” diskette, and it can run from the floppy
drive. However, it is usually more convenient to load and run the program from
the hard drive.

To install the software from the floppy disk onto the hard drive, run SETUP.EXE
from the floppy disk, and follow the instructions that appear on the screen. The
program occupies approximately 1 MB (megabyte) of hard-drive space.

By default, the Windows installation creates a C:\VSC200 directory, and it will
place two icons (VSC + DDS Control Pgm and VSC + DDS Help) into a group or
folder named “Extron Electronics”.

Using the Software

1.

To run the VSC and DDS Control Program, double-click on the VSC + DDS

Control Pgm icon (left) in the Extron Electronics group or folder.

2.

Click on the comm port that is connected to the RS-232 port of

the VSC 200/200D/300/300D.

The Extron VSC and DDS Control Program window appears (see figure 26).
It displays the current settings and the detected input scan rate.
