Communications Concerns
Control Connectors:
The Edje incorporates Parallel, Serial RS232 and Ethernet (Telnet) control. The
Parallel port utilizes a DB9 male connector; the RS232 In and OUT ports utilize
RJ-11 telephone connectors. For specific information regarding the protocol and
pin out, reference the Technical and API command documents.
RS232 and Ethernet:
The Edje provides multi drop loop-through RS232 to allow a single PC
communication port, modem, or serial controller access to multiple units. Two
RJ-11 connectors make up the IN and OUT connection. A PC 9 Pin adaptor is
provided to connect the Edje directly to a PC communications port. The
Ethernet port also supports connecting multiple units to a single PC through the
use of an Ethernet hub. The only limit is the number of ports on the hub and
available IP addresses on the network.
Hard Drive Concerns
Internal Drive(s):
The Edje ships with a 10 GB internal shock mounted hard drive. Optionally, the
Edje can be ordered without the hard drive for IP stream decoding applications.
Do not replace the factory installed hard drive. Its design is specific to the
factory provided drive; doing so may overheat or damage the unit, thus voiding
the warranty.
Summary:
The Edje was designed to replace VCR’s, DVD, PC Based decoder cards, and
Laser (Video) Disk Players. It will provide many years of maintenance free high
quality reliable video and audio. Should you require technical support or
