Instruction Manual – HDMI-UTPRO-0808
Note:
Only HDMI-UTPRO-RX units that are physically connected to the HDMI UTPro will be represented in
the Online Tree.
The device number for each HDMI-UTPRO-RX Receiver currently connected to the HDMI UTPro is automatically
designated a device number, based on the device number of the HDMI UTPro to which it is connected and to the number
of the HDMI UTPro Output UTP (RJ-45) port (1-8) on the HDMI UTPro to which it is physically connected.
For example, if the HDMI UTPro is using its default device number assignment of
05500
, and eight HDMI-UTPRO-RX
Receivers are connected to all eight UTP Output ports on the HDMI UTPro, then the device numbering would be
assigned as follows:
HDMI UTPro = device number
05500
HDMI-UTPRO-RX connected to UTP Output Port
#1
= device number
05501
HDMI-UTPRO-RX connected to UTP Output Port
#2
= device number
05502
HDMI-UTPRO-RX connected to UTP Output Port
#3
= device number
05503
HDMI-UTPRO-RX connected to UTP Output Port
#4
= device number
05504
HDMI-UTPRO-RX connected to UTP Output Port
#5
= device number
05505
HDMI-UTPRO-RX connected to UTP Output Port
#6
= device number
05506
HDMI-UTPRO-RX connected to UTP Output Port
#7
= device number
05507
HDMI-UTPRO-RX connected to UTP Output Port
#8
= device number
05508
Therefore, it is important to avoid assigning device numbers that will conflict with this auto-numbering scheme. Reserve
the eight device numbers following the HDMI UTPro’s device number assignment for up to eight HDMI-UTPRO-RX
Receivers.
Note:
The HDMI-UTPRO-RX Receivers that are connected to the HDMI UTPro UTP output ports on the
HDMI UTPro are not required to be in sequential order. For example, if you had three HDMI-UTPRO-RX
units, plugged into UTP Outputs 2, 5 and 7, the device numbers (assuming the default device number of the
HDMI UTPro = 05500) would be 05502, 05505 and 05507.
In the device tree, each HDMI-UTPRO-RX Receiver displays three ports (FIG. 57)
These three ports relate directly to the three types of NetLinx commands recognized by the HDMI-UTPRO-RX:
Port 1
–
SEND_COMMANDs
Port 2
–
SERIAL (RS-232) SEND_COMMANDs
Port 3
–
IR SEND_COMMANDs
