Solved: Re: HDX 7001 RS-232 control or IP Control

Hi All

I'm wondering if I could control via Serial (RS-232) or IP with crestron on an HDX 7001 specifically?

The first paragraph of the cited source states:

------

The Application Programming Interface (API) is a set of commands for
advanced users who want to automate a Polycom HDX system. You can use
the API by connecting a control system or computer RS-232 serial port to a
Polycom HDX 9000, Polycom HDX 8000, Polycom HDX 7000, or Polycom
HDX 4000 series system. You can also use Telnet over the LAN to use the API
with Polycom HDX 9000, Polycom HDX 8000, Polycom HDX 7000, Polycom
HDX 6000, and Polycom HDX 4000 series systems.

------

As one could guess HDX 7001 system is a member of HDX 7000 series.

Hi,

Yes, you can. Take a look at >>> Integrator's Reference Manual <<< -> Using the API.

and this is specifically for the HDX 7001? and it can be controlled via RS-232 and IP?
