Isys™ 2.8” Handheld Wireless Touchpanel Crestron MTX-3 infiNET EX® Wireless Technology Crestron’s groundbreaking infiNET EX wireless technology provides ultra-reliable two-way communications throughout a residence or commercial structure utilizing a 2.4 GHz mesh network. A complete infiNET EX network uses the lighting dimmers and other devices throughout the structure as wireless relay stations, each receiving and passing on wireless commands to the central gateway. Each device that is added to the network effectively increases the range, strength and reliability of the entire network by providing redundant signal paths, ensuring that every button press is executed instantly and consistently. Of course, the MTX-3 can also communicate directly with the gateway if no other infiNET EX devices are installed. Up to six MTX-3s can be assigned to a single gateway. Wireless range for each MTX-3 is 75 feet (23 meters) typical indoors, which can easily be extended using infiNET EX Expanders*. Instant-Waking™ To ensure the most transparent user experience possible, the MTX-3 has been engineered to wake instantly at the press of a button or touch of the touchscreen. Button presses are sent immediately just like an IR remote but with none of IR’s limitations. So spontaneous actions like muting the audio, pausing the video or changing the channel can be executed on the fly with just a single button press. Extended Battery Life Instant waking also allows the MTX-3 to be put to sleep within seconds of putting it down, helping to extend its battery life for several days of typical usage on a single charge. Even under continuous use at full brightness, the MTX-3 lasts an incredible five hours. Its fast charging, field replaceable lithium polymer battery pack delivers optimum power in a very small, lightweight package. Tactile Pushbuttons with Backlit Text A complement of tactile pushbuttons makes for a very intuitive user interface, providing easy access to everything needed for watching TV and movies, listening to music and controlling the entire room. Large, widely spaced buttons accommodate hands and fingers of all sizes, minimizing the chance of an unintended button press. Electroluminescent backlit button text affords excellent legibility for use in a darkened room. The pushbuttons are comprised of 17 buttons designated for the most common functions, plus a 5-way navigation pad, three context assignable “hard keys” beneath the touchscreen, a thumb operated “More” button for advancing through the available touchscreen pages and a system power button. Every button on the MTX-3 is fully programmable to allow precisely the control desired, whether simply adjusting audio volume and flipping through channels, controlling a DVR or DVD player, navigating onscreen setup menus or operating a pan/tilt camera. * Requires CEN-RFGW-EX or equivalent infiNET EX gateway, which supports up to 100 infiNET EX network devices inclusive of up to six MTX-3 remotes. Additionally, up to five CLW-EXPEX infiNET EX Expanders may be added to the network for extended range. All gateways and expanders sold separately. 2 • Isys™ 2.8” Handheld Wireless Touchpanel: MTX-3 Operations Guide – DOC. 7066A

Configuration Manager Configuration Manager is the view where programmers “build” a Crestron control system by selecting hardware from the Device Library. 1. To incorporate the MTX-3 into the system, first drag the CEN-RFGW-EX (gateway) from the Wireless Receivers | Wireless Receivers (RF) folder of the Device Library and drop it in the System Views. Then drag the MTX-3 from the Wireless Remotes | Wireless Remotes (RF) folder of the Device Library and drop it on the CEN-RFGW-EX. 24 • Isys™ 2.8” Handheld Wireless Touchpanel: MTX-3 Operations Guide – DOC. 7066A

Program Manager Program Manager is the view where programmers “program” a Crestron control system by assigning signals to symbols. The symbol can be viewed by double clicking on the icon or dragging it into Detail View. Each signal in the symbol is described in the SIMPL Windows help file (F1). Programming with VisionTools Pro-e Touchpanel screens should be created in VisionTools® Pro-e (VT Pro-e) to allow accessing the embedded applications, switching of source signals to desired outputs as well as selection of the system mode. There are no special programming requirements to use the functions of the MTX-3 in a room control system. Multi-Mode Objects Multi-mode objects offer high-performance programming! The single most advanced VT Pro-e high performance programming technique involving the MTX-3 is the concept of multi-mode objects. A multi-mode object (i.e. button, legend, etc.) is an object drawn on a VT Pro-e page that can have one or more active and inactive visible settings (modes). For examples, refer to www.crestron.com/exampleprograms and search for multi-mode object examples. This file contains the VT Pro-e touchpanel files and SIMPL Windows files that illustrate the high-performance capabilities of multi-mode objects. WAV File Audio Messages The MTX-3 touchpanels are capable of playing audio messages as system prompts and responses. These files are recorded as WAV files on a PC using an audio utility such as Sound Recorder that is packaged with Microsoft Windows 95/98/Me/XP/NT/2000/Vista/7™. Files from other sources may also be converted to an acceptable format by using this or a similar utility. Many other audio utilities are available commercially or as shareware. The MTX-3 touchpanels only accept the following WAV file formats: PCM, 8 and 16 bit, 8 – 44.1kHz, mono and stereo. For more information about how to use Sound Recorder, refer to its User’s Guide and extensive help information provided with the software. Also refer to the help file Operations Guide – DOC. 7066A Isys™ 2.8” Handheld Wireless Touchpanel: MTX-3 • 27
Isys™ 2.8” Handheld Wireless Touchpanel Crestron MTX-3 in VT Pro-e to learn how to use its audio tool, Sound Manager, to attach WAV files to a touchpanel project. Pre-recorded WAV files for voice prompts and responses are available from Crestron. These files can be stored into and programmed for use in the touchpanel directly or may be edited with the Sound Recorder. For example, the individual files can be combined to create custom messages. NOTE: Touchpanel WAV files can be obtained from the Wave LC Library of the Crestron FTP site. Bit Depth and File Size A balance of performance and quality can be achieved by using VT Pro-e to configure the size of graphics in a project. Read this section to learn about bit depth and how to maximize the quality and performance of a MTX-3 project. Bit depth refers to the number of memory bits used to store color data for each pixel in a raster image. A touchpanel raster image consists of a rectangular grid of picture elements (pixels). Each pixel uses the same amount of memory to store its color data. The amount of memory is called the bit depth of the image. Greater bit depths are required to represent finer gradations of color. Increasing bit depth necessarily increases file size. A black and white drawing requires only one bit per pixel to store all the available color information. Using a 32-bit per pixel bit depth for a black and white image increases the file size 32 times without adding anything to the black and white image quality. In an 8-bit per pixel system, the associated 8-bits of video memory for every screen pixel contain a value referring to a location in an 8-bit color table. In this way any one of the specific 256 color table locations is assigned to a pixel. A 16-bit highcolor system is considered sufficient to provide life-like colors. It is encoded using 5-bits to represent red, 5-bits to represent blue and (since the human eye is more sensitive to the color green) 6-bits to represent 64 levels of green. These can therefore be combined to provide 65,536 mixed colors (32 x 32 x 64 = 65,536). In a 24-bit graphics display, the video memory allocates 24 bits for each pixel on the screen enabling each pixel to take on any one of a possible 16.7 million colors. Each 24-bit value is composed of 8-bits for red, 8-bits for green and 8-bits for blue. These triplets of 8-bit values are also referred to as the red, green and blue color planes. A 24-bit image is actually composed of three component images which combine to create the truecolor picture. The reason this is called truecolor is that this is near the maximum number of colors the human eye is able to detect. Truecolor images are sometimes represented by a 32-bit value. The extra 8-bits do not enhance the precision of the color representation but act as an alpha channel that represents pixel translucence. 32-bit truecolor has become popular on the computer desktop to provide effects such as translucent windows, fading menus and shadows. In graphics intensive applications such as touchpanels, raising or lowering the color depth of the displayed graphics can achieve a balance of performance and quality. Lower color depths do not require as much frame buffer memory or display bandwidth, allowing them to be generated and displayed more quickly. Increasing color depth results in higher color quality at the expense of display speed and responsiveness. By using mostly 8-bit or 16-bit graphics and holding 32-bit graphics to a minimum (e.g. for a family photo, etc.), you can create a sophisticated project that will fit in the memory space provided and have the touchpanel remain very responsive. 28 • Isys™ 2.8” Handheld Wireless Touchpanel: MTX-3 Operations Guide – DOC. 7066A
Crestron MTX-3 Isys™ 2.8” Handheld WirelessTouchpanel Relationship of Bits to Colors NUMBER OF BITS NUMBER OF COLORS 1 bit Black and White 2 bits 4 Colors 4 bits 16 Colors 8 bits 256 Colors 16 bits 65,536 Colors (Highcolor) 24 bits 16.7 million Colors (Truecolor) 32 bits 16.7 million Colors plus Transparency When creating a VT Pro-e project you can elect to compress and reduce the image size in the “Page Properties” window for the entire page and/or perform the same function of reducing the image size using the “Image Properties” window. A reduction in image size will save a considerable amount of memory space for your project. In VT Pro-e, the Compress checkbox permits the image to be compressed when compiling. The 16 Bits checkbox converts a 24-bit or 32-bit image to 16 bits. This conversion to a 16-bit image may cause the loss of some subtle shading. To compensate for this, use the dithering to simulate the original shading. Check your image with each of the available dithering types to determine which will deliver the best quality image. Dithering type selection can be accessed from the “Page Properties” or “Image Properties” windows in VT-Pro-e. Refer to the following illustrations.

This occurs when a language has more than 256 characters (28) in a font. For example, Chinese fonts contain several thousand characters. Other multibyte languages include Japanese and Korean. There are two separate applications with multibyte characters – static text on buttons and indirect text on buttons. No Isys touchpanel firmware changes are required in either case. Indirect text on a button is entered in VT Pro-e and the actual string to be displayed is entered in SIMPL Windows. As of this publication date only completely single byte or completely multibyte strings may be entered or they will not be compiled correctly in SIMPL Windows. In other words, you cannot enter Chinese characters interspersed with numbers. You can enter Chinese characters or numbers in separate strings or you can pad each number with “\x00” to make it multibyte and then combine it with Chinese characters in the same string. 30 • Isys™ 2.8” Handheld Wireless Touchpanel: MTX-3 Operations Guide – DOC. 7066A
Crestron MTX-3 Isys™ 2.8” Handheld WirelessTouchpanel Of course you can always use the workaround of showing a graphic that displays the string but it is not dynamic. To compile and use multibyte characters it is essential that the operating system understand the language. Windows XP, Vista and 7 are available in many international languages and add-on software is available for other versions of Windows. Example Program An example program for the MTX-3 is available from the Crestron website (www.crestron.com/exampleprograms).
