RS-232 Operation
Overview
The Multi-View KVMP™ Switch supports system control via RS-232 serial
commands sent through a PC or a high-end controller. Note that the RS-232
serial control is only possible when the Multi-View KVMP™ Switch is not
daisy-chained with any secondary unit because the Switch’s
DCC in
port is
required as the communication port for serial control.
Setup
1. Connect your controller or PC to the Multi-View KVMP™ Switch.
Use an RJ-45 to DB-9 serial adapter (SA0141) to connect the computer’s
serial port to the
DCC in port of the Multi-View KVMP™ Switch, as
shown below:
Note:
For RS-232 pin define, see RS-232 Pin Assignments , page 78.
2. Download controller software that supports RS-232 serial control and the
operating system of your controller PC.
