Rear Panel Control and Power
The following sub-sections describe each component on the rear panel of the DVX. Refer to FIG. 4 on page 8 for the
component layout of the rear panel.
RS232/422/485 Serial Port Connectors (PORTS 1-3)
The RS232/422/485 serial device ports (FIG. 36) are used for A/V sources and displays. These ports support most
standard RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 communication protocols for data transmission.
These connectors feature the following specifications:
XON/XOFF (transmit on/transmit off)
CTS/RTS (clear to send/ready to send)
300-115,200 baud
FIG. 37 provides wiring specifications for the RS-232/422/485 connectors.

When wiring the connections, do not use pre-made 9-wire cable or connect the wire
in the cable to any connection that will not be used by the DB9 serial port. Only use
wiring that connects the necessary pins.
