● HDCP-compliant. Answer: High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system
designed to prevent the unauthorized copying of digital video content. It involves checks on all
key devices and components in the chain that allows you to view the content, including the
monitor.
● Extron MediaLink Plus■■■■■■■ controllers are fully-customizable to meet the
specific needs of your application and consist of:. Answer: • Customized soft-touch,
backlit buttons • Ethernet-controllable device support • Bidirectional RS-232 ports, relays, and
IR ports • Configurable using GC Plus and Pro
● Extron control processors enable almost any AV device to be controlled, monitored,
and accessed from the network. IPL Pro■■■■■■■ systems:■■■■■■■. Answer: •
Provide a compact, standalone or secondary control processor in large systems. • Are
compatible with TouchLink Pro touchpanels, GC Plus and Pro, and GUI Designer. • Manage,
monitor, and control AV devices over a standard Ethernet network. • Support
industry-standard network security protocols and PoE.
● Extron control processors enable almost any AV device to be controlled, monitored,
and accessed from the network. IPCP Pro■■■■■■■ systems are:. Answer: • Versatile,
primary control processors for controlling multiple devices and signal types • Upgradeable
with Extron LinkLicense
● Extron switchers with built-in IPCP Pro processors are the:. Answer: • DTP CrossPoint
84 IPCP • DTP CrossPoint 4K IPCP Series • IN1608 IPCP Series
● The IPL Pro and IPCP Pro are both. Answer: powerful control processors. In comparison,
the main differences are the versatility of the control ports, LinkLicense support, and PoE
capabilities.
● Developing Extron Pro Series control interfaces can be streamlined using Extron
user interface design software:. Answer: • Design, creation, and maintenance of TouchLink
Pro user interfaces • Start from a blank workspace and build custom layouts-- or -- • Use
design templates where input sources, display controls, and environmental settings are
pre-configured
, ● Global Configurator is a powerful software tool that helps streamline the integration
process. Answer: It has two modes designed to be used exclusively with Extron Pro Series
control systems:
● Global Configurator Plus. Answer: • Configuration software ideal for small-scale
applications requiring one control processor and one control interface • Functional features
include conditional logic, variables, and macros
● Global Configurator Professional. Answer: • The most powerful configuration software for
Extron AV control systems • Duplicates all features within GC Plus, but more suited for
applications requiring multiple control processors and user interfaces • Advanced functions
and configuration features
● LinkLicense for User Interfaces. Answer: • Use a mobile device or computer as the
primary control interface • Operates with the Extron Control App • Used where TouchLink Pro
touchpanels may not be present • BYOD - Bring Your Own Device control
● LinkLicense for Software Conferencing. Answer: • Works with Extron Codec Connect •
Transforms software conferencing codecs into customizable, user-driven applications
● IR Learner Pro. Answer: - A software utility to create or modify IR driver functions:
• Designed for use with IP Link Pro control processors that feature IR capture ports • Capture
infrared codes from IR remotes to create new or modify existing IR drivers • Save driver files
and upload to any Extron control processor that includes an IR port and accepts .EIR files
● Toolbelt. Answer: Utility to manage and troubleshoot Extron Pro Series control products:
• Use Auto Discovery to find control systems on the same subnet as Toolbelt • Modify network
settings, Mail server information, and user permissions • Trace window shows control system
messages passed between connected devices • Remotely reboot IP Link Pro control
processors and • MediaLink Plus controllers • Test a connection between a control processor
and another network device • View devices, part numbers, names, serial numbers, and
memory usage • Upload LinkLicense and new firmware versions Set device date and time
● True or False: When selecting a TLP Pro touchpanel type in the Project Create
Wizard, the resolution is fixed.. Answer: True
● The ______ icon, or its option within the Project menu verifies the project, and tests
the build for possible errors or warning indications.■■■■■■■. Answer: Verify
● To select and modify more than one object, click the objects while pressing the
