Audio/visual events, multi-image presentations and multi-scene
lighting events require a standardized method of synchronization
for material during presentations and performances. The Society
of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) has formulated
an industry-wide standard by creating a digital encoding/decoding
process. The AXC-SMP SMPTE Time Code Card can receive time
code from any audio source such as videotape, audio reel-to-reel
and cassette decks. This allows precise, simultaneous operation of
Axcess functions and other events.
APPLICATION
• Sends and receives SMPTE time codes using line-level audio
• 1/10 second accuracy
CONTROL PORT
:
SMPTE input and output
INCLUDES: T
wo status LEDs for transmit and r
eceive
POWER REQUIREMENT
:
45 mA @ 12 VDC

he AXC-INP8 Switch Opto Voltage Input Card provides eight
inputs that can respond to switch closures or voltage level
(high/low) changes. Input signals may originate from tape
t
ransports, limit switches, foot mats or the AMX PCS Power
Current Sensor. Each input may be set for either switch closure
(SW) or voltage operation (VO), allowing a combination of either
application on the same AXC-INP8 card. Inputs set to the switch
mode share the same Axcess system ground. When an input is
set to voltage mode, it is opto-isolated from the system and can
accept AC or either polarity DC signals.
APPLICATION
R
eceives switch closures or logic high-/low-frequency level changes
CONTROL PORTS
• E
ight input channels, 28 VDC or 24 VAC maximum
• Input closure
s act as Axcess channel Push or Release
• Voltage level below 1.5 V is re
ad as a logic low (Push or On)
• I
nputs set to voltage operation are opto-isolated
INCLUDES
• E
ight channel status LEDs
• E
ight pairs of micr
o-jumpers change channels from switch to voltage operation
The AXC-MIDI MIDI Interface Card provides control to the
following devices for integration with other studio devices such
as lights, volume and non-MIDI devices: Music keyboards,
mixers, electronic instruments, equalizers, routing switchers,
recording/reproducing decks, computers and control systems.
APPLICATION
•
Controls mixers, equalizers and other devices that use MIDI communication
CONTROL PORTS: MIDI In, Out and Through
INCLUDES: T
hree status LEDs for MIDI In, Out and Thru Cable for MIDI Out
POWER REQUIREMENT: 20 mA @ 12VDC

The X-10 system is a unique way to contr
ol various devices in the
home by sending the commands thr
oughout the house via the
built-in AC wiring. X-10 system modules can turn electric lights
on and off, start and stop motors and pumps, open and close
drapes, water the lawn, heat up the hot tub, and start the coffee
maker. The AXC-X10 X-10 Power Line Interface Card, when used
with the X-10 Power Line Interface Module, provides direct
contr
ol of most X-10 modules with all the pr
ogramming featur
es
of the AMX Axcess system. The AXC-X10 can handle up to 256
devices on each system, using all 16 house and unit codes.
APPLICATION
• Controls up to 256 devices that accept X-10 power line control commands
CONTROL PORT: X-10 control port
INCLUDES
• Three status LEDs for online, transmit, and receive (future version)
• X-10 Power Line Interface Module model #TW-523 with cab
Devices that can be contr
olled with the AXC-REL14 Universal
Fourteen Relay Card. Operates up to 14 relay-controlled
functions in a dual seven-relay configuration.
APPLICATION
• Relay control; 14 relays per card, one group of 14 relays or two groups of 7 relays
CONTROL PORTS
• 14 relays, normally open, rated at 750 mA, 28 VAC/24 VDC
• Each group of seven relays shares the same common
INCLUDES
• 14 channel status LEDs
• One micro-jumper connects commons between groups 1-7 and 8-14

Devices that require a simple momentary or latching contact
closure can be controlled with the AXC-REL8 Universal Eight
Relay Card. This card can operate up to 8 relay-controlled
functions, and cards can be linked together to allow a larger
number of functions. Adjacent relays on the card may be
selectively commoned to reduce device wiring.
APPLICATION: Universal relay control; eight relays per card

Eight relays, normally open, rated at 750 mA, 28 VAC/24 VDC
INCLUDES
• Eight channel status LEDs
•
Eight micro-jumpers connect commons between adjacent channels
• Eight micro-jumpers change relay contacts from normally open to normally closed
