Remote Control
This section describes the remote control operation of the FOXBOX HDMI and, including:
• Simple Instruction Set Control
• FOX Extenders Control Program
The transmitter and receiver each have a front panel Configuration port, a 2.5 mm
mini stereo jack (see “Front panel Configuration Ports“ in the “Installation and
Operation” section. The receiver has a rear panel Remote RS-232 port, a 3-pole captive
screw connector (see “RS-232 connections“ in the “Installation and Operation” section.
Any of these ports can be connected to a host device such as a computer running the
HyperTerminal or DataViewer utility, or a control system to make serial control of the
transmitter and receiver possible.
The protocol for all ports is as follows:
• 9600 baud • no parity • 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit • no flow control
NOTE: RS-232 commands and FOX Extenders Control Program functions are
transmitter- or receiver-specific or may have different responses depending
on the unit connected. You must connect to the appropriate device for the
command or function to work properly or to get the expected response.
