Settings in the Communications
submenu define and control how
single or multiple
Cine-IPM 2K’s
link with each other and with a
controlling device.
Baud Rates
The baud rate setting determines
the speed of communication to and
from the
Cine-IPM 2K on the
RS232 or RS422 links. The
maximum rate for either standard is
115200. Set the baud rate to match
that of your controlling device,
such as your PC. If you are unsure
about what baud rate to choose, refer to the documentation for the controlling device.
In an existing network of
Cine-IPM 2Ks , if you discover that a Cine-IPM 2K has a
different baud rate, make sure to use the pull-down list and select the correct baud
rate using the
Enter
key—do not just scroll this control with or
keys. Serial
communication is always 8 data bits, no parity.
Projector
Enter a three-digit number (such as "001”) to assign or change a number to the Cine-
IPM 2K currently in use. If the current Cine-IPM 2K already has a number assigned,
that number will appear here (for example, “004” in Figure 3.15, above). Numerical
identity for
Cine-IPM 2Ks enables you to communicate with a single Cine-IPM 2K
within a multiple-unit application (see also
Proj
key in 3.2, Using the Keypad ). If
you make a mistake in assigning or changing the projector ( Cine-IPM 2K ) number,
press
Exit
to cancel.
Network Routing
Not applicable for stand-alone Cine-IPM 2Ks or simple serial networks with only
one type of controller and linking.

SEPARATE:
Select “Separate” (factory default) to keep RS232, RS422 and Ethernet
messages on their respective paths instead of being broadcast to the remaining ports.
In Figure 3.16
A, RS422 controls only the Cine-IPM 2K to which it is
connected. In

; either RS232 or RS422 will control the network.
