3. Remote Focus Unit (RFU)
The Remote Focus Unit (sold separately) is an optional
remote Ethernet device that can be connected to the console
using either a wired or wireless configuration. The two
connection options are as follows:
• CAT5 twisted-pair Ethernet cable from the back of the
console to the RFU. (The configuration can be routed
through walls, hubs, switches, etc.)
• CAT5 twisted-pair Ethernet cable from the back of the
console to a wireless Access Port; and then from the
Access Port though the air to the RFU with wireless
receiver.

The console can interface with Strand Vision.net systems. In this configuration, the console’s DB9 Serial port can be
connected to a Vision.net RS232 Programming Station, which in turn connects to a Vision.net control station. The
