Extron launched Dynamic Images, a new Extron control system capability. Extron user interfaces can now display low-frame-rate video directly from NAV Pro AV over IP systems. It will soon include compatibility with Quantum Ultra II videowall processor systems.

Confidence preview content is delivered securely to the control interface with no dedicated preview hardware required. The Dynamic Images feature can also be used to automatically update graphical content on Extron user interfaces, including logos and other changeable elements. Dynamic Images can retrieve JPEG, PNG and animated GIF files from web sources and file servers in an effort to allow interface graphics such as logos, channel icons and status images to be updated without redeploying the GUI file. Dynamic Images is compatible with TLP Pro 35 Series touchpanels, Extron Control for Web and the new Extron Control Pro App.

Support for these new capabilities is available in Global Configurator Plus and Global Configurator Professional version 3.34.0, which introduces Dynamic Images within project properties and touchpanel commands. The company said that additional support has been added to the ControlScript UI Library for programmed control system applications.

“Since the launch of the TouchLink Pro 35 Series, Dynamic Images has been one of our most requested features,” said Casey Hall, chief marketing officer for Extron. “Dynamic Images helps users make confident source selections with instant visual confirmation before switching.”
