Page 2 of 5 Driver Notes:
In order to use the MLC226/104 IP Plus/System 5 IP/T LP 700 volume knobs, configure the “ Scaled Volume” command on the volume knob in Global Configurator.
Nexia uses an Instance ID number to specify the exact DSP block to be controlled. Custom names
(Instance ID T ags) may be assigned to DSP blocks, and used in lieu of Instance ID numbers within NTP (Nexia Text Protocol) command strings. Instance ID T ags may be up to 32 characters, but may not start with a number. If the Instance ID Tag includes spaces, it must be double-quote delimited ("Instance ID T ag") when used in a command string.
The Instance ID numbe r (and Instance ID Tag) can be found by first making sure the “Prope rties” attribute of a control block is enable d by right-clicking the DSP block and sele cting "Prope rties". Then hove r ove r the “Property Sheet” tab on the le ft and both identifie rs are available in the DSP Attributes 1 tab.
To simplify instance ID tag naming within the drive r, a capital lette r and a numbe r are use d as the Instance ID Tag for a varie ty of control blocks.
The following Nexia configuration blocks correspond to the following driver commands:
Command Name
Tag
Letter Tag Range
Corresponding Nexia Control Block
Dial Keypad D 1 ~ 16 TC - Dialer (Double Click) Logic State L 1 ~ 32 Logic State
Mute M 1 ~ 32 Mute
Auto Answer
Phone Input Level I 1 ~ 16 TC - Receive (Double Click) Receive Mute
Phone Output Level
Transmit Mute O 1 ~ 16 TC - Transmit Preset Recall N/A N/A Preset Button
Hook D 1 ~ 16 TC – Dialer (This logic resides in the Dialer block, use this command to hang up.
Scaled Volume V 1 ~ 16 Level
Volume V 1 ~ 16 Level
For example, in order to configure “ Scaled Volume” to a MLC 226 IP front panel volume knob, drag and drop “ Scaled Volume” on to the knob itself and configure “ Volume Instance ID T ag X” and “ Volume Channel X” to a separate button. T hen in the Audia configuration software, drag and drop a “Level Control” from the “Processing Library” to the grid, then click the “Property Sheet” tab -> “ DSP Attributes 1” tab and enter in “ VX” in the instance ID tag text field.

1. These commands only available with model that support teleconference feature.
2. These are discrete control commands and status of the Mute instance ID T ag from M1 to M10 for channel 1 and channel 2. T hese Instance ID T ags are hard coded in the driver thus need to be set in the Nexia
software and are the same as Mute. It purposes is to provide discrete status.
