TOUCH PANEL
This female DB-9 connector allows you to use a standard serial cable up to 10 meter to connect the touch panel interface with the
projector. Note that the RS232 protocol is used on this connection.
RS232 IN
This female DP-9 connector is only used for service purposes. Do not use this connector to communicate with the projector.
RS232
An Electronic Industries Association (EIA) serial digital interface standard specifying the characteristics of the commu-
nication path between two devices using either D-SUB 9 pins or D-SUB 25 pins connectors. This standard is used for
relatively short-range communications and does not specify balanced control lines. RS-232 is a serial control standard
with a set number of conductors, data rate, word length and type of connector to be used. The standard speci
fi
es com-
ponent connection standards with regard to computer interface. It is also called RS-232-C, which is the third version
of the RS-232 standard, and is functionally identical to the CCITT V.24 standard. Logical ’0’ is > + 3V, Logical ’1’ is < -
3V. The range between -3V and +3V is the transition zone.
GENERAL PURPOSE IN/OUT
This 37 pins connector can be used to send or receive trigger signals from other devices. These input/output pins can be pro-
grammed by macros created on the Communicator touch panel. See user’s guide of the Touch panel, section Macro editor, for more
information about this functionality. Note that the General Purpose Inputs accept 24 volt maximum.
DC OUT
This fuse protected mono jack socket provides a +12 VDC voltage and maximum 1,5 ampere. The DC OUT socket has ground
(GND) in the middle and +12V on external pin. This is opposite of the Barco Touch Panel Communicator power connection. So, a
cross cable is needed when connecting the DC OUT directly to the Touch Panel.
USB port
The communication interface is equipped with a master USB port, type “A” connector (F). This USB port is for future expansion.
10/100 BASE - T
The DP-1200 projector can be connected to a LAN (local area network) using one of the Ethernet ports (G) on the communication
interface. Once connected to the LAN, users are capable of accessing the projector from any location, inside or outside (if allowed)
their company network using the Communicator software. This software locates the projector on the network in case there is a DHCP
server or the user can insert the correct IP-address of the projector to access the projector. Once accessed, it is possible to check
and manipulate all the projector settings. Remote diagnostics, control and monitoring of the projector can then become a daily and
very simple operation. The network connectivity permits to detect potential errors and consequently improve the time to servicing.
