Use the provided composite or HDMI cable to connect to your TV. Connect the yellow video cable to the video input and the red/white audio cables to the audio inputs. If using HDMI, simply plug it in and select the correct input on your TV.
Why is my disc not playing?
Ensure the disc is inserted with the label facing up. Check if the disc is compatible (DVD, CD, etc.) and free from scratches or dirt. Also verify the region code matches your player. If problem persists, try cleaning the disc with a soft cloth.
How do I change the region code?
Region code changes are not recommended and may damage the player. The DVX-2250HD is typically set to a specific region. To play discs from other regions, consider using a multi-region player or software. Attempting to change region code can void warranty.
The remote control is not working. What should I do?
First, check if the batteries are inserted correctly and have sufficient charge. Remove any obstacles between the remote and the player. If still not working, try resetting the remote by removing batteries and pressing all buttons for 5 seconds. Replace batteries if needed.
How do I clean the DVD player?
Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the exterior. Do not use any liquids, chemicals, or abrasive cleaners. For the disc tray, use a can of compressed air to remove dust. Avoid touching the lens; if needed, use a lens cleaning disc.
Can I play MP3 files on this player?
Yes, the DVX-2250HD supports playback of MP3 files burned on CD-R/RW or DVD-R/RW discs. Create a data disc with MP3 files in folders, insert it, and the player will list the tracks. Use the remote to navigate and select songs.
What are the audio and video output options?
The player offers composite video (yellow RCA), component video (Y, Pb, Pr), and possibly HDMI. Audio outputs include stereo RCA (red/white) and coaxial/optical digital audio for surround sound systems. Refer to manual for specific jack locations.
How do I update the firmware?
Firmware updates are rarely needed for DVD players. If provided by AMX, download the update file to a CD or USB, insert it, and follow on-screen instructions. Ensure stable power during update. Contact support if uncertain.
My player keeps saying 'No Disc'. What's wrong?
Ensure the disc is placed correctly with label up. Check if the disc is damaged or dirty. If the problem persists, the laser lens may be dirty. Use a lens cleaning disc. If still not working, the player may need repair. Avoid shaking the player.
Can I use the player in countries with different voltage?
The DVX-2250HD has a universal power supply (110-240V). However, you may need a plug adapter for the socket. Check the label on the back for exact voltage range. Do not use a voltage converter unless required.

Common Application

Enova DVX All-in-One Presentation Switchers are ideal solutions when used to simplify A/V control and distribution in sophisticated presentation environments and conference rooms, including those supporting audio and video conferencing. It also fits well in classrooms and auditoriums that need multiple displays, or video previewing.

Audio Processing

Enova DVX All-in-One Presentation Switchers feature built-in audio mixing and amplification that outputs two channels at 25 Watts each into 8-ohms after passing through a mixer and an integrated equalizer to accommodate the size, furnishings, surfaces, and functional requirements in every room. There are also three stereo line level outputs each with its own mixing and equalization settings.

Integrated Control

The 325x-series DVX includes the equivalent of an NX-3200 central controller. The 22xx-series DVX includes the equivalent of an NX-2200 central controller. All DVX models also include a front control panel for an added level of convenience. The DVX features standard RS-232, IR, digital I/O, and relay control ports for control over environment and third-party equipment.

Battery Life

Enova 325x- and 22xx-series All-in-One Presentation Switchers use a combination lithium battery and clock crystal package. The battery is a commonly available CR2032 lithium battery. The battery has an average shelf life of 10 years. In normal use, the time will be shorter than the average shelf life depending on the amount of time the unit has no external power for the clock circuit. Typical useful life of the battery is 8 years under the specified temperature range. (see Operating Environment in the Specifications table for each type of DVX in next two chapters for more information.)

Installation

Overview

This chapter provides information on installing a DVX into an equipment rack.

Mounting the DVX into an Equipment Rack

The DVX occupies three rack units in a standard equipment rack. The following steps apply to mounting the DVX.

  1. Discharge any static electricity from your body by touching a grounded metal object.
  2. Position and install the mounting brackets, as shown in FIG 4, using the supplied mounting screws.

NOTE: The left and right mounting brackets are not identical. Please install in the orientation shown.

FIG. 4 displays how the brackets should be attached to the DVX:

Brackets attach at the side toward the front of the unit

FIG. 4 Rack mounting the DVX

  1. Install the DVX in the mounting rack by using the mounting screws to affix the unit to the rack.
  2. Connect any applicable wires to the DVX. Refer to the Wiring and Device Connections section on page 24 for wiring diagrams and pinout descriptions.

CAUTION: DO NOT stand other units directly on top of the DVX when it is rack mounted, as this will place excessive strain on the mounting brackets.

Ventilation

ALWAYS ensure that the rack enclosure is adequately ventilated. Do not block any ventilation openings. Sufficient airflow must be achieved (by convection or forced-air cooling) to satisfy the ventilation requirements of all the items of equipment installed within the rack.

NOTE: The maximum operating ambient temperature is 40^ C ( 104^ F).

CAUTION: When installing equipment into a rack, distribute the units evenly. Otherwise, hazardous conditions may be created by an uneven weight distribution.

Reliable earthing (grounding) of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.

The DVX should not be installed in enclosed spaces. It is recommended that you leave 1 RU of space above the DVX when you install it in a rack.

Wiring and Device Connections

Overview

DXLINK/HDMI OUTPUTS

The following sections provide details on the video outputs for the 325x and 22xx DVX models.

325x Video Outputs

The DXLINK/HDMI OUTPUTS includes 2 different types of connectors:

  • 4 HDMI Output connectors (1-4) each provide digital DVI video and HDMI audio and video output.
  • 2 DXLink Twisted Pair outputs (1, 3) mirror HDMI outputs 1 and 3. They provide digital video, audio, Ethernet, and bi-directional control over Category Cable to DXLink Receivers. See the Important Twisted Pair Cabling Requirements and Recommendations section below for information about cable requirements.

NOTE: On Video outputs 1 and 3, if you are using both DXLink and HDMI outputs, it is recommended that they have the same native resolution. In this situation, the EDID from the HDMI display is used to determine the SmartScale resolution and timing.

Important Twisted Pair Cabling Requirements and Recommendations

The following requirements and recommendations apply to cabling DXLink (RJ-45) connectors:

  • DXLink cable runs require shielded category cable (STP) of Cat6 (or better).
  • DXLink twisted pair cable runs for DXLink equipment shall only be run within a common building.*
  • DXLink delivers 10.2 Gb/s throughput over shielded category cable. Based on this bandwidth requirement, we recommend following industry standard practices designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet when designing and installing the cable infrastructure.
  • The cables should be no longer than necessary to reach the end-points. We recommend terminating the cable to the actual distance required rather than leaving any excess cable in a service loop.

For more details and helpful cabling information, reference the white paper titled "Cabling for Success with DXLink" available at www.amx.com or contact your AMX representative.

* "Common building" is defined as: Where the walls of the structure(s) are physically connected and the structure(s) share a single ground reference.

Rear Panel Control and Power

The following sub-sections describe each component on the rear panel of the DVX. Refer to FIG. 6 on page 24 for the component layout of the rear panel.

Serial Ports

The DVX features device control serial ports that support either RS-232 or RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 communication protocols. Each port supports the following specifications:

• XON/XOFF (transmit on/transmit off)
• CTS/RTS (clear to send/ready to send)
• 300-115,200 baud rate

RS-232 Ports

The RS-232 ports (ports 2-4 and 6-8 on the DVX-325xHD; ports 2-4 on the DVX-22xxHD) are 5-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (male) connectors used for connecting A/V sources and displays. These ports support most standard RS-232 communication protocols for data transmission.

RS-232/422/485 Ports

The RS-232/422/485 ports (ports 1 and 5 on the DVX-325x; port 1 on the DVX-22xx) are 10-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix (male) connectors used for connecting A/V sources and displays. By default, these ports are RS-422- and RS-485-disabled ports. These ports can be used as RS-232 ports by disabling RS-422 and RS-485 on the ports. Only with RS-422/485 disabled will the ports operate as RS-232. See the SET BAUD command and the TSET BAUD command in the NetLinx Programming chapter of the NX-Series Controllers WebConsole and Programming Guide for more information on disabling RS-422 and RS-485 on these ports. These ports support most standard RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 communication protocols for data transmission.

DVX-325xHD DVX-22xxHD

AMX DVX-2250HD - AxLink Port and LED (4-pin captive-wire) - 2
FIG. 51 AxLink Ports and LEDs

The (green) AxLink LED indicates AxLink data activity:

  • Off - No power, or the controller is not functioning properly.
    • 1 blink per second - Normal operation.
  • 3 blinks per second - AxLink bus error. Check all AxLink bus connections.

The AxLink port can be used to supply power to downstream AxLink-compatible devices as long as the maximum current draw is less than 0.5 Amps on the DVX-22xxHD, and 3 Amps on the DVX-325xHD. To isolate the central controller from high in-rush current, AxLink devices, or potential power faults on the AxLink bus, it is strongly recommended that you power external AxLink devices from an independent power supply.

NOTE: The AxLink port provides only limited power to connected AxLink devices. It is recommended to use an alternate power source when connecting AxLink devices to the central controller.

IMPORTANT: The DVX CANNOT be powered via the AxLink port. The +12V pin on the AxLink connectors are designed only for voltage output. Do NOT connect +12V from a power supply or the NXA-PDU to the +12V pin on the AxLink connectors, or you may permanently damage the DVX and/or the power supply.

The DVX-325xHD has two AxLink connections. These are two connection points for the same AxLink bus. All AxLink devices connected to the controller must have unique AxLink device numbers even if they are attached to different AxLink connection points on the controller.

While it is one AxLink bus, the power on these two AxLink connections is controlled independently.

Refer to the following table for the wiring length information used with the central controller:

Wiring Guidelines
Wire size Maximum wiring length
18 AWG 154.83 feet (47.19 meters)
20 AWG 98.30 feet (29.96 meters)

FIG. 53 4-pin mini-Phoenix connector wiring diagram (using external power source)

CAUTION: When you connect an external power supply, do not connect the wire from the PWR terminal (coming from the external device) to the PWR terminal on the Phoenix connector attached to the Controller unit. Make sure to connect only the AXM, AXP, and GND wires to the Controller's Phoenix connector when using an external power supply.

Make sure to connect only the GND wire on the AxLink/PWR connector when using a separate 12 VDC power supply. Do not connect the PWR wire to the AxLink connector's PWR (+) opening.

SDHC Card Slot

The DVX-325xHD features an externally accessible SDHC card slot.

NOTE: The card slot is reserved for future use. Do not install a card in the card slot at this time.

FIG. 54 displays the SDHC card slot.

AMX DVX-2250HD - SDHC Card Slot - 1
FIG. 54 SDHC Card Slot

Configuration DIP Switch

All DVX models have a configuration DIP switch which allows for certain operations to occur during boot-time. The DIP switch positions are assigned as follows:

  • Switch for Program Run Disable
  • Switch for Boot from External SD Card (only applicable to the DVX-325xHD.)

FIG. 55 displays the Configuration DIP Switch for the DVX.

AMX DVX-2250HD - Configuration DIP Switch - 1
FIG. 55 Configuration DIP Switch

Program Run Disable (PRD) Mode

You can use the Configuration DIP switch to set the on-board Master to Program Run Disable (PRD) mode. PRD mode prevents the NetLinx program stored in the on-board Master from running when you power up the Integrated Controller. You should only use PRD mode when you suspect the resident NetLinx program is causing inadvertent communication and/or control problems.

If necessary, place the on-board Master in PRD mode and use the NetLinx Studio program to resolve the communication and/or control problems with the resident NetLinx program. Then download the new NetLinx program and try again.

FIG. 56 displays the default DIP switch settings and the settings for PRD mode. To switch to PRD mode, move the position 1 DIP switch to ON.

NOTE: Consider equating PRD Mode to a PC's SAFE Mode setting. With PRD mode, you can continue to power a unit, update the firmware, and download a new program while circumventing any problems with a currently downloaded program. You must power cycle the unit after activating/deactivating PRD mode on Program Port DIP switch #1.

ICSLAN Ports

All DVX models have two types of Ethernet ports: LAN and ICSLAN. The LAN port is used to connect the master to an external network, and the ICSLAN ports are used to connect to other AMX equipment or third-party A/V equipment. The ICSLAN ports on all models provide Ethernet Communication to connected AMX Ethernet Equipment in a way that is isolated from the primary LAN connection.

The ICSLAN port is a 10/100 Port RJ-45 connector and Auto MDI/MDI-X enabled. Each model of DVX features one port. The port support IPv4 and IPv6 networks, as well as HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet, and FTP.

AMX DVX-2250HD - ICSLAN Ports - 1
FIG. 57 ICSLAN port

The ICSLAN port gets its IP addresses in one or more of the following ways:

  • IPv4 - Static assignment of the subnetwork address by the user
  • IPv6 - Link local address

Using the ICSLAN Network

The default IP address for the ICSLAN network is 198.18.0.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.

It is important that the ICSLAN and LAN subnets do not overlap. If the LAN port is configured such that its address space overlaps with the ICSLAN network, the ICSLAN network will be DISABLED.

NOTE: Typically, the DVX communicates with an A/V switcher via ICSLAN. Since the A/V switcher has a static IP address on the ICSLAN network, and you cannot change the IP address on the switcher, you cannot change the 198.18 subnet information on the DVX platform of processors. You can only change the Host name and DHCP server settings.

DHCP Server

The ICSLAN port has a built-in DHCP server. This DHCP server is enabled by default and will serve IP addresses to any connected devices set to DHCP mode.

The DHCP server can be disabled from telnet with the command:

SET ICSLAN

The DHCP address range is fixed. The server will provide addresses in the range x.x.0.2 through x.x.63.255.

Devices using static IP addresses on the ICSLAN network should be set within the reserved static IP address range of x.x.64.1 to x.x.255.255.

Opening LAN and ICSLAN Sockets from Code

When opening sockets from NetLinx or Java code there is no mechanism to indicate which network to use. The controller will open the socket on whichever network has an IP subnet that matches the address provided in the command to open the socket. There is no indication which network was used, only whether the socket was created successfully.

USB Port

All DVX models feature one Type-A USB port you can use to connect a mass storage device for loading .jar files and IR data files (.irl), reading or writing configuration files and log files, or updating the firmware on the unit.

NOTE: This USB port only supports a FAT32 file system.

This USB port (FIG. 58) uses standard USB cabling to connect to any mass storage or peripheral devices.

AMX DVX-2250HD - USB Port - 1
FIG. 58 USB port

NOTE: USB hubs are not supported on this port.

ID Pushbutton

All DVX models feature an ID pushbutton which you can use to toggle between static and dynamic IP addressing. You can also use the pushbutton to reset the default settings on the controller or restore the controller to its factory firmware image.

FIG. 59 displays the ID pushbutton for the DVX.

AMX DVX-2250HD - ID Pushbutton - 1
FIG. 59 ID pushbutton

Switching to Static or Dynamic IP Addressing.

To toggle between static or dynamic IP addressing, the controller cannot be currently booting or it must be in ID Mode. If these conditions are met, holding the ID pushbutton for 10 seconds changes the current IP addressing mode.

Restoring the Controller Settings to the Factory Defaults

To restore the controller settings to the factory defaults, the controller must be currently booting and you must press the ID pushbutton for 10 seconds. The controller is booting when the System and Input LEDs are both ON and the Output LED is OFF. This includes resetting the static IP address to its default and deleting the NetLinx program.

CAUTION: Pressing the ID pushbutton for 20 seconds restores the factory firmware image on the controller. Do not press the pushbutton significantly longer than the necessary 10 seconds if you only want to restore the default settings on the controller.

Restoring the Controller's Factory Firmware Image

To restore the controller's factory firmware image, the controller must currently be booting and you must press the ID pushbutton for 20 seconds. This also deletes all code and IRL files.

LAN 10/100 Port

All DVX models feature a LAN 10/100 port to provide 10/100 Mbps communication via Category cable. This is an Auto MDI/MDI-X enabled port, which allows you to use either straight-through or crossover Ethernet cables. The port support IPv4 and IPv6 networks, as well as HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet, and FTP.

The LAN port automatically negotiates the connection speed (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps), and whether to use half duplex or full duplex mode.

Channel Video Switching

To switch video via channels, the channel must be turned ON (as opposed to pulsing the channel).

For example, turn on Channel 31 on Port 1 for Input 1 to output video.

  • The DVX-325x video channels are 31-40 (Ports 1-4) - see DVX-325xHD NetLinx Channels on page 79
  • The DVX-22xx video channels are 31-36 (Ports 1-3) - see DVX-22xxHD NetLinx Channels on page 80

These channels are mutually exclusive:

  • Turning On another channel will change input and turn off the last channel.
  • Turning Off a selected channel will select input none.
  • Pulsing any channel will set input to none as it turns on, and then back off the channel pulsed.

Standby Mode

You can activate Standby Mode using one of the following methods:

  • You can activate Standby Mode via channel 100 on the DVX. Set channel 100 to ON to activate Standby Mode. Deactivate Standby Mode by setting channel 100 to OFF.
  • You can activate Standby Mode by accessing the Status menu on the front panel LCD display. Use the navigational buttons on the front panel to locate the Enter Standby Mode option in the Status menu, and use the left and right arrow buttons to set the value to YES to activate Standby Mode.

The following points apply to Standby Mode on the DVX:

  • After exiting Standby Mode, the DVX cannot re-enter Standby Mode for a period of 20 seconds. Any attempt to re-enter standby mode within this 20 second window is ignored.
  • When the DVX enters Standby Mode, all video and audio circuitry are turned off. The DVX does not produce a video or audio output signal in low power state.
  • The 5002 Device stays online when Standby Mode is active.
  • All switch and configuration commands sent while in Standby Mode are implemented, and any changes will be noticed after the DVX exits Standby Mode.
  • All audio and video signals are restored in less than 10 seconds after exiting Standby Mode.
  • The DVX exits Standby Mode on any power cycle or reboot.

SEND\_COMMANDS

The commands listed in the following sections are for the switcher only. For generic NetLinx commands, see the NetLinx Integrated Controllers WebConsole and Programming Guide.

  • The commands derive their input/output port addressing from the target D:P:S.
  • INPUT ports range from 5-14 for Audio and from 1-10 for Video, depending on the DVX model. HDMI inputs are capable of carrying both digital audio and video signals
  • The extra ports 1 and 2 on the Audio subsystem represent MIC1 and MIC2 respectively.
  • There are four Audio output ports (05002:1:0, 05002:2:0, 05002:3:0, and 05002:4:0), depending on the DVX model.
  • Audio Output Port #1 is the Main Amp Output and most audio commands are addressed to this port.
  • Audio Output Ports 2-4 are the Line Outputs and normally track the Main Amp Output port with small exceptions.
  • There are four Video output ports (05002:1:0, 05002:2:0, 05002:3:0, and 05002:4:0), depending on the DVX model.
  • Input and Output functional distinctions are disambiguated from the overlapped port numbers by combining them with the command name.

Appendix C - Volume Attenuation Table

Overview

Volume attenuation on the DVX is not set by percentage, like it was on earlier DVX models: On the DVX, the output volume slider changes .5dB per click, to provide a more subtle adjustment.

Unity gain is at 88, so a setting of 100 is actually 6dB gain. A setting of 20 would be -34 reduction

(88-20=68 clicks. @ .5dB per click =34 dB). This is only the output slider.
