Control via 9-pin Connectors
The 9-pin connectors allow you to control the routing switcher via an external computer. On some
switcher models, the serial port can be changed internally for RS422 configuration (RS232 is
factory configuration).
Each routing switcher model has one port and it is labeled on the back panel as “RS232/422
Control” (refer also to the illustrations of back panels shown in Chapter 1):
Connection to the RS-232/422 port is made using a standard 9 pin (pin to pin) cable.
RS-232 pinout;
Pin 2……….TX
Pin 3……….RX
Pin 5……….GND
NOTE:
To convert the 9-pin connector to an RS422 serial port, contact Sierra Video Systems.
