Except there is no vcbutton command and the camera command doesn't have a
for-content option in the QDX.

For the content issue you need to assign the correct camera for the content
in hdx7000 the content camera is input 3, just sent those command:
vcbutton map 3\r
camera for-content 3\r
if the QDX is input 5, it would be probably these command:
vcbutton map 5\r
camera for-content 5\r

Here's the scoop. To control it via RS232 you need to have a crossover
cable with pins 4 and 6 tied together on the Polycom side like so:
QDX Crestron
Pin 2 Pin 3
Pin 3 Pin 2
Pin 5 Pin 5
Pin 4 tied to Pin 6
No other pins required.
I used the VSX series crestron moodule and found that the content play
button does not work. You have to send the graphics button followed by the
input to send content. In my case it was graphics then 5. To turn off
content you send the same command. So of course you have to monitor when
content is being turned on and off with the "notify vidsourcechange"
command. The feedback to the command didn't make a lot of sense to me, but
it may be because it was a long day getting this thing working yesterday.
If you send the "camera near 1" command it will toggle the camera on and
off. It seems most of the feedback from the unit has changed so don't
expect to get much in the way of feedback from the stock modules.
Good Luck and I hope that helps

I am � programming a QDX6000 tomorrow. I was researching the how to
control it part. TCPIP/RS232.
The only thing i found so far is the HDX9000, i was wondering if the
commands will work on it.
Have you tried that yet?

Have you try if you connect you pc direct to the com port are you able
to use a console program to talk to the unit ?
Have you try to connect with telnet to check if your able to control
it ?

Has anyone been able to control a QDX6000? It's definitely supposed
to be RS232 controllable after firmware 4.0, but I haven't been able to get
it to work. It will not respond to anything on its com port at all. I have
set the com port for control and hooked up to the thing like any other
Polycom and no joy. I am thinking I might have a bad unit. I talked to tech
support and was told I needed a special cable as referenced in the API. we
made that cable on-site only to find out it had actually come with the
unit. The cable made no difference. Plus, according to the documentation
that cable is only for "pass thru" mode.
I'm going to call tech support again today but I was hoping someone
here could push me in the right direction.
Thanks
