Wiring Requirements
Caution: Do not connect power to the AXB-SLD until the wiring is
complete. If you are using a 12 VDC power supply, apply power to the
AXB-SLD only after installation is complete.
The AXB-SLD requires 12 VDC power to operate properly and uses a 4-pin
AXlink cable for power and data. The power can be supplied by the AMX
system's AXlink cable or with an optional 12 VDC power supply. The
maximum wiring distance between the control system and AXB-SLD is
determined by power consumption, supplied voltage, and the wire gauge
used for the cable. The following table lists wire sizes and the maximum
lengths allowable between the AXB-SLD and control system. The maximum
wiring lengths for using AXlink power are based on a minimum of 13.5 volts
available at the control system's power supply.
If the AXB-SLD is installed farther away from the control system than
recommended in the Wiring Guidelines table, connect a 12 VDC power
supply to the 2-pin 12 VDC PWR connector on the rear panel.

pushbutton controls the switched line power to the projector. A red
LED in the switch is illuminated when projector power is on.
Slide Interface LEDs FWD LED: lights when the AXB-SLD sends forward commands to
the projector.
REV LED: lights when the AXB-SLD sends reverse commands to
the projector.
FOC LEDs: light when the AXB-SLD sends focus in/out commands
to the projector.
Rear Panel Components:
AXlink connector The AXlink connector is a 4-pin captive-wire connector for AXlink
data and power. Terminals accept 24 - 12 AWG wire.
Projector Control cable A ten-foot long, 5-pin EC3-compatible EBY projector control cable
(US Kodak style).
Switched Power outlet A 110 VAC (up to 1,200 watts) switched power outlet controls power
to the projector using the front panel PWR switch or from AXlink
control. Projector power can be switched from the AXB-SLD front
panel, even if AXlink communication is not on. The switched power
connector is a standard 3-prong AC receptacle.
AC Power Cord A 110 VAC (50/60Hz) three-wire standard power cord provides AC
power to the AXB-SLD.

Connecting the Wiring
Installing the AXB-SLD
To install the AXB-SLD:
1. Position the AXB-SLD in the location where it will be used.
2. Set the AXlink device number with the DEVICE DIP switch on the
front panel, according to the Axcess program for the system (refer to
Setting the DIP Switch).
3. Connect the 5-pin projector control cable, labeled Projector on the
rear panel of the AXB-SLD to the control cable input on the slide
projector. FIG. 2 shows the 5-pin projector control cable plug
4. Plug the slide projector's power cord into the power outlet on the rear
panel of the AXB-SLD.
Note:
The mechanical power switch on the projector must be set for lamp
and power on.
5. Plug the AXB-SLD's AC cord into a wall outlet.
6. Use the 4-pin AXlink connector to connect the AXB-SLD to the
Axcess Central Controller. For wiring information, refer to FIG. 1.
Programming
The AXB-SLD is controlled with channel setting commands. Refer to the
Axcess Programming Guide for additional programming information.
Channel Setting Commands
Use the channel setting commands listed in the following table to control
the AXB-SLD.
To use the channel setting commands, you must assign a button push to
each of the five channel settings. The following example describes using
the channel setting commands.
Example Axcess program
An example of Axcess programming code to control the AXB-SLD via a
touch panel is shown below.
In the
DEFINE_DEVICE section of the program, define the touch panel
(device 128 for this example) and the AXB-SLD (device 96 in this example
- set with the DEVICE DIP switch):
TP=128 (*Touch Panel*)
SLD=96 (*AXB-SLD*)
In the DEFINE_PROGRAM section of the Axcess program (beneath the
'
MSG' Send_Command), enter:
SYSTEM_CALL 'SLD1'(SLD,TP,1,2,3,4,5,0,0)
Compile and save the program. That's all the code you need to control the
AXB-SLD. Since this example uses a touch panel, you must also create a
touch panel page with a minimum of five buttons - one button for each
Channel Setting Command (forward, reverse, focus in, focus out, and
power). You can create touch panel pages either on the touch panel itself,
or you can use the TPDesign3 Touch Panel Design software program to
design the page(s) and download them into the panel. For detailed
information on creating touch panel pages and buttons, refer to the
TPDesign3 Touch Panel Design Program Instruction Manual.
Setting up a touch panel page for the AXB-SLD
To set up an AXB-SLD touch panel page:
1. Create a new page and set the page properties as desired.
2. Create a new button, and set the button properties:
a. Enter button text: "Forward"
b. Set the Button Type to General
c. Set the Button Options to Channel
d. Set the Channel properties to DEV = 1, CHAN = 1
e. Set the Variable Text properties to DEV = 1, CHAN = 1
f. Set the Channel Off and Channel On colors to indicate button
feedback as desired
3. To create the next button ("Reverse"), repeat step two. There are only
a couple of differences between the buttons on this page: the button
text, and the channel assignment. The channel assignment is directly
related to the Channel Setting Commands listed in Figure 8. Enter
"Reverse" as the button text, and set the Channel properties to:
DEV = 1, CHAN = 2
4. To create the next button ("Focus In"), repeat step two. Enter "Focus
In" as the button text, and set the Channel properties to:
DEV = 1, CHAN = 3
5. To create the next button ("Focus Out"), repeat step two. Enter
"Focus Out" as the button text, and set the Channel properties to:
DEV = 1, CHAN = 4
6. To create the next button ("Power"), repeat step two. Enter "Power"
as the button text, and set the Channel properties to:
DEV = 1, CHAN = 5
7. Create a page flip button "MAIN", and set the page flip to the MAIN
page.
You're almost done! The only problem with the program as it is
shown above is that the Power button does not toggle the power to
the AXB-SLD. To make the Power button toggle On/Off each time it is
pressed, the following modification to the Axcess code is needed:
Add the following code, before the System_Call:
PUSH[TP,1] (*add*)
PUSH[TP,2] (*add*)
PUSH[TP,3] (*add*)
PUSH[TP,4] (*add*)
ON[SLD,5] (*add*)
SYSTEM_CALL 'SLD1'(SLD,TP,1,2,3,4,5,0,0) (*leave
this line as it is*)
8. Re-compile the program and test all functions. The Power button
should now toggle On/Off when pressed.
