Appendix: JSON Scripting Directly > Configuring Delta for Express Mode

Initialising Delta Express Mode

DeltaServer needs to be running for all external controls and API calls to work.

Express Mode in Delta can be enabled in one of three ways.

External Control

The quickest method to enable/disable Express Mode is to call the external command:

•send SETEXPRESSMODE ENABLED=[Y/N] from a UDP terminal, or via the web API:

•http://[Delta Server IP]:80/api/delta/rpc/setExpressModeON

Registry Edit

Alternatively it can be done through the Registry Editor by navigating to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\7thSense\Delta. From there locate the ExpressMode and change the value to 1.

On Load

If neither of these methods is used, Express Mode will be enabled automatically when a media json config file is loaded using the LOADMEDIAJSON external control command.

Media Resources

It is also necessary to ensure all media in the Movies and Images folders is loaded into Delta by either:

•sending REFRESHRESOURCES from a UDP terminal, or

•opening DeltaGUI and clicking the refresh button below the resource panel.
