Setting up Sources
The Sources section allows to dene sources for each BeoLink product. This information will be used by mobile applications for generating a user
interface where each product contains the relevant sources.
This section is only relevant for supporting mobile applications, and has no effect on macro programming.
! If BeoLink resources have been uploaded from a Beo5 project le, the sources screen should automatically contain most information necessary (with
a default UI type eld according to the source).
- Navigate to Programming
and click the tab Sources.
A list of sources can be
dened for each product.
The information to provide for
each source is the following:
- Source:
This is the actual Beo4/5/6 command for selecting the source.
- Name:
This is an optional label to show with the source. Try to use a short label (no more than 5 or 6 characters) so that it can t on less space on the user
interface. The recommendation is to leave this eld empty unless you need a specic description for this source (e.g. name of a set-top box or DTV
service).
- Dst:
This is equivalent to the A/V button on Beo4, or the Destination eld for BeoLink commands in macros. This eld should be lled in automatically
depending on the source; you can also select AUTO in order to retrieve the default setting for that source type. You can modify this setting if
needed, such as selection of audio sources on video products on Option 1 or Option 5 or vice-versa.
- Link:
In the case of a link product having local sources, sources from the main products are selected using the LINK modier (just as with Beo4). This may
also be necessary for products in OPTION 4.
Important: Many BeoLink products do not support this modier. Click here to see survey of compatible products.
- UI type:
This is an indication to the mobile application on what type of user interface is needed for operating the product. Choose the type that most suits
your specic source or set-top box. Click here to see survey of default UI types.
