2.2 Using the loop through facility
The 8450-02 / 8460-02 have dual loop through facility available allowing the IP Control Unit to sit in the
middle of an existing connection between devices. Any RS232 received on the Loop of port 2 is sent straight
out of the TX of port 2 and likewise anything received on the loop of port 3 gets sent out of port 3.
2.3 Example installation
Figure 2.3 shows and example installation correctly wired to maximise the potential of the IP Control Unit.
You will see that the way the setup is connected, the control panel makes use of both loop through paths in
order to allow local control of the projector and switcher with the IP Control Unit still having full access to the
devices for remote control.
