Model 8/10 PLUS RS-232 Control
Software
The Model 8/10 PLUS Switcher control software is a program
called UNIVSW. It is Windows® 3.1, 3.11 and Windows 95
compatible and provides remote control of input selection.
Installing the Software
The program is contained on a single 3.5” diskette and will
run from the floppy drive. However, it will be more convenient
to load and run it from the hard drive. To install the software
from the 3.5” floppy disk onto the hard drive, run SETUP.EXE
from the floppy disk. The program will occupy approximately 1
MB of hard drive space.
The Windows installation will create (by default) a
C:\UNIVSW directory and will place 2 icons (UNIVSW
Program and UNIVSW Help) into a group or folder titled
“Extron Electronics”.
Using the Software
1. For information about program features, double click on the
UNIVSW Help ICON in the Extron Electronics group or folder.
[Help can be accessed from its Icon (stand-alone) or from
within the program by the Menu on the Main screen or by
pressing F1 from any point within the program.]
2. To run the software, double click on the UNIVSW Program
ICON in the Extron Electronics group or folder.
3. A Comm menu will be displayed on the screen. Click on the
Comm Port that is connected to the Model 8/10 Switcher
RS-232 port.

input selection (see picture below).
