10.1.5. The [A] button is a general use button, usually used in conjunction with the
keypad for site customization. An example would be a facility that needs the ability
to toggle in and out of a local room control mode whereby the Television Manager
would control a DVD/VCR combo unit that is mounted beneath the display device.
In this example, the user might use [A-1-Enter] to toggle between Phoenix control
mode and local room control mode (not to be confused with Local Mode). If your
facility includes customization that utilizes the [A] button, supplemental
documentation will be provided that describes its function.
For rooms that contain the AMX Television Manager Clock device (AXB-TMC), the
[A] button also serves as a means of engaging and exiting from the timer functions.
Two timers are available: a countdown timer and an elapsed timer. These are
described below:
10.1.5.1. [A-1-Enter]: Enter countdown timer mode. The TMC will respond with a
prompt that reads, “TIME?”. Using the digits on the CT5 remote control, enter
the duration that you want to time. For example, to enter 10 minutes, enter
[1] [0] [Enter]. To 10 hours, enter [1] [0] [0] [0] [Enter]. To start the timer,
press [PLAY]. To Pause the timer, press [PAUSE] or [STOP]. To exit the
timer before expiration, press [A]. Note that the clock will be reset if an event
launches to the room while the timer is in use, or if any other command is
entered that will cause the clock to reset (such as [Source Up/Down]).
10.1.5.2. [A-2-Enter]: Enter elapsed timer mode. Press [PLAY] to start the timer
and [PAUSE] or [STOP] to pause it. Press [A] to exit elapsed timer mode.
Note that the clock will be reset if an event launches to the room while the
timer is in use, or if any other command is entered that will cause the clock to
reset (such as [Source Up/Down]).
10.1.6. The [B] button is also for general use. However, it does include some default
functionality that is available to most facilities (unless the functionality was
deliberately removed at the request of your facility). The default functionality served
by the B-Select combinations is intended for input selection, although your facility
may use it for anything by placing the right infrared code into the Television
Manager (this applies to IR controlled display devices only). The IR slots that will
be pulsed when a B-Select command is received, along with the default
descriptions, are below:
10.1.6.1. [B-1-Enter]: Select input 1; pulse channel 96.
10.1.6.2. [B-2-Enter]: Select input 2; pulse channel 97.
10.1.6.3. [B-3-Enter]: Select input 3; pulse channel 89.
10.1.6.4. [B-4-Enter]: Select input 4; pulse channel 91.
10.1.6.5. [B-5-Enter]: Select input 5; pulse channel 90.
10.1.6.6. [B-6-Enter]: Select input 6; pulse channel 84.
10.1.6.7. [B-7-Enter]: Select input 7; pulse channel 85.
10.1.6.8. [B-8-Enter]: Select input 8; pulse channel 98.
10.1.6.9. [B-9-Enter]: Select input 9; pulse channel 81.
