I am working on a system that has a Bose Lifestyles system. I added an Atlona 4x2 component switch to the system. Pedro built a 232 module for me, which I will finally be trying tomorrow.

My question is about how to implement the extra level of Input selection.

What I did is went to the AVR-ZONE EXTENDER and found the output signals for source select. So for example I found

SOURCE_'DVD-CD:Line-Level Audio'_Selected and put in a step for the Atlona Switch to also switch to the input/output needed for that room and source. I did it on the FALLING EDGE.

Is there a reason to do it on the falling edge vs, rising edge? Have I done this the right way?

The other idea I had was go to the Programming view PTX3->FAMILY->BOSE_AVR_Zone_Extender->ZONE_1 Subpage which is where I see the buttons with the sources on them that have the Macros for that source and put the extra step there.

Also, side question, can i set my IP address to static?  i know there was an issue with my first prodigy system and DHCP not be "on". so i've been reluctant to set statics. I want to at least set the PMC2 to static.

Sofa I just set mine up in the macros like you mentioned in step two.

The difference between rising edge and falling edge is the rising edge is when someone presses the button and falling edge is when they release it. It won't really matter (except being a slight bit slower) unless you think that someone will hold down the button, waiting for it to change.
