You can edit the device name in the Alias field, clicking Apply when done. Note that the

name must comply with the following conventions:

For Transmitter (input) devices: IN[number]-[name]

For Receiver (output) devices: OUT[number]-[name]

It is important that each name begins with “IN” or “OUT”, which is then followed by the

input or output number. You can then optionally add a hyphen (-) followed by an

appropriate description for the device (note that no spaces are allowed). For example, in

the screenshot above, the first input is named IN1-BluRayPlayer, equally valid is just IN1.

Driver Installation & Configuration

Copy the .c4i files from the zip package to My Documents\Control4\Driver and then open

Composer. The drivers can be found under:

Device Type: A/V Switch, Manufacturer: Avenview, Model: nxm HDM-C6VWIP

where “nxm” is the number of inputs and outputs. Choose the version that most closely

matches your needs. The drivers are all effectively the same; differently sized versions are

provided to avoid cluttering your project with unwanted inputs and outputs.

The installed driver will appear as Avenview nxm HDM-C6VWIP as below:

Figure 3: Installed Driver

To configure the driver’s access to the Avenview system, go to the Connections section and

set up your input and output connections as usual. There are also serial connections

representing the serial ports on the transmitters and receivers; these can be linked to any

equipment that is going to be controlled via the unit’s serial port. Then go to the Network

tab and select the driver from the list. Add the IP address of your Avenview Control

Interface. The driver should now automatically connect to the Avenview system and initialize

itself.
