Hello

Has anyone a driver for the AMX DVX-2100HD or DVX-3150HD-SP Matrix?

Thank you

    Well, this unit is a switcher and NI controller combined. When you say 'driver' what do you mean?

    ok sorry, i mean a source code (include or module) for use of the matrix.
    I know that many commands are simple, maybe someone has written a software module?
    I found nothing on the AMX website!

    No Driver Needed!

    Switching control of the new Enova DVX-3150 is super simple. Just pulse channels on a device.port that represents the output. (Port 1 = output 1, etc.) You also have the option of using a Send_Command to the device.port.

    Download the manual for more details.

    Correctly, but I want to save the audio and video settings on the controller (ftp)!
    But I have no time to program all these functions!

    Hmmm. Sounds like you need to hire a programmer to do your work for you. I completely understand being too busy to program something as I am a programmer myself. Fortunately for you there are several independent programmrs right here on the forum who'd be glad to program for you. I'm sure they can discuss their fees when you two get together.

    Happy hunting!

    It wasn't long ago I found myself in a project where I needed full control of all the EQ and input bias levels for a matrix audio switch, said functions were *not* in the stock module, and likewise I "didn't have time" to program it all myself. Yet, it needed to be done, one way or another. So, I had to decide (1) would it be in any way possible to bill more for that added function (and the answer was no), (2) to do it all manually, zone-by-zone, by running back and forth between the rack, a PC plugged into the switch, and the various rooms, or (3) bite the bullet and program it into both the module and my UI devices. I chose number 3. When my boss complained about me being over-budget on programming time, I spelled it out for him that since we promised a feature we didn't actually fund, I had a choice between the job running over on install time or on programming time ... and that by choosing to do it in programming, we now had a tool we could re-use on other jobs.

    Sounds to me like you are in a similar place. You're going to have to eat this one way or another, choose the way that benefits most in the long run.

    Try asking tech support as this is high on their feature request list and I'm sure someone has done it.
    I have attached a demo I wrote to store and recall the Output EQ settings for a DVX-3150, it is a good start.
    I have also recreated the system routing page of the web gui on a touch panel in the example provided.

    Hi DHawthorne

    Yes, i am in the similar place.
    I know, i have to write the software.
