Programming AMX Controllers for a Kaleidescape System
the targeted zone by comparing the device ID of the response and the device IDs
set in the program.
If CPDIDs are used for command routing each Premiere line component being
controlled must have a unique CPDID set in the browser interface.
String examples:
If CPDID 02 is used as the device ID, the PLAY command has the following format.
'02/1/PLAY:',$0D
If the Kaleidescape component’s serial number is used as the device ID, the PLAY
command has the following format.
'#020600007410/1/PLAY:',$0D
The device ID is set in the program by sending the device ID to the virtual device
that will control the corresponding movie or music zone using send_command. For
example:
send_command KPLAYER1 'ID 02'
send_command KPLAYER2 'ID #020600007410'
The Kaleidescape module is designed to be used with command routing.
The examples in this manual use CPDIDs however they can be changed to use
serial number IDs by replacing the CPDID with a hash (#) followed by the target
component’s serial number. The serial number can be padded with zeroes to a
maximum of 12 characters but it is not required.
Kaleidescape music zones
Some Kaleidescape components have more than one music zone. For example, the
Kaleidescape Music Player incorporates four music zone outputs, each of which
must be controlled independently.
To control the four music zones, the device field includes a Zone ID (01–04) that
identifies the music zone to which the command is targeted. Each music zone
behaves as a separate endpoint. Commands that target Zone ID 01 do not usually
affect Zone ID 02 and so on. (Power on/off commands affect all four zones.)
For example, if CPDID 06 is assigned to a Music Player, the PLAY command
intended for Zone ID 03 has the following format.
'06.03/1/PLAY:',$0D
Music commands addressed to the single zone of a M500 Player always use
Zone ID 01.
Send commands (see configuration instructions on page 24) are used to tell the
Kaleidescape module which virtual devices control which zones.
