Cinema.JNIOR Application Manual
4 Devices Set-up
The Cinema.JNIOR Application can communicate with a variety of devices over the
Ethernet and/or via the serial ports on the JNIOR. The Devices file provides the JNIOR
with important set-up information about the device being connected to.
The Preshow Client, Cinema Server Client and digital cinema server are not configured
or entered into the Devices file. The Client communications message structure is
discussed in Appendix C of this document and various configuration items are discussed
in the Configuration Parameters section of this document.
The Devices configuration is done via the JNIOR Support Tool and looks as follows.
Device Name – free form name for the device with each being unique with no spaces
Device Type – this field will tell the JNIOR the specific device to connect to so that the
JNIOR can utilize the proper protocol and make available to the macro the relevant
commands. The names for this field are defined by INTEG and represent the valid types
of devices available. Please see Appendix D for the full list of devices included.
IP Address – the IP address of the external Ethernet device (blank for serial devices).
Port – the port number to be used by the JNIOR when opening the connection to the
external device over the Ethernet or the JNIOR serial port to be used for serial
connections. The default port is offered by the support tool for the Barco, Christie and
NEC projectors. For a serial device, the user must select AUX (if the Aux. Serial port is
used) or RS232 (if the RS-232 port is used).
Baud, Data Bits, Parity, Stop Bits, and Flow Control – settings to be used for
connections to serial devices (blank for Ethernet devices).
Termination String – the string to be added at the end of each command sent by
Cinema.JNIOR to the device. Choices are none, \r, \n, \r\n, other.
