RS-232 output inserts
e
RS-232 Output Insert connectors — For bidirectional RS-232
data that is routed to a specic (unswitchable) TP output,
connect a serial device to one of the RS-232 Output Insert 3-pole
captive screw connectors.

N
For the RS-232 Output Insert to be available on the TP
output, it must be enabled. See the RS-232 output
inserts enables SIS commands on page 4-5.
N
The switch time for the RS-232 output insert is 50 ms.
Outputs
f
TP outputs — Connect up to 8, 16, or 32 (depending
on the matrix size) compatible MTP receivers to the
Outputs RJ-45 connectors.
g
Local RGB (VGA) outputs — Connect
one or two RGBHV video displays to the Local
Outputs (VGA) 15-pin HD female connectors.
N
These outputs are always outputs 1 and 2.
N
The video that is output on this (these) connector(s) is
converted from the tied proprietary TP input signal or the
local (VGA) input.
N
This connector can also output HD component video,
component video, S-video, or composite video if that is the
video format that was input.
If the video output is NTSC component video, S-video, or
composite video, set the output to turn off sync stripping.
See the Local video output sync polarity
SIS commands on page 4-9.
h
Local audio outputs — Connect audio devices, such as audio
ampliers or powered speakers to these four or eight 3.5 mm,
Mono Audio (local audio) outputs 5-pole captive screw
connectors to receive unamplied, mono line level audio.
CAUTION Connect the sleeve to ground.
Connecting the sleeve to a negative (-)
terminal will damage the audio output
circuits.

These outputs are always outputs 1 through 4 (matrix
sizes up to 1616) or outputs 1 through 8 (matrix sizes
1632 and larger), with the same inputstied to them as to
TP outputs 1 through 4 (8).
N
Each local output has a volume control. See "Viewing and
Adjusting the Audio Level” on page 3-7.
Remote control
i
Remote port — If desired, connect a control system or computer
to the rear panel Remote RS-232/RS-422 port.
