RS-232 (Serial) Bi-Directional Pass-Through
The Video Over IP products feature bi-directional RS-232 pass-through for control of products using serial commands.
There are multiple methods for distribution of RS-232 using the ELAN Video Over IP solution which include:-
Note: Only one method of RS-232 pass-through can be used at the same time. It is not possible to mix different methods of RS-232
control.
1)
Type-1 Redirection Mode:- 1-to-1 routed RS-232
A link is programmed that creates an open connection between ANY Video Over IP product in the system (Transmitters or Receivers).
Once established the RS-232 commands can be sent in either direction between products.
Multiple links can be created between Video Over IP products for additional independent product control.
2)
Type 2 Dumb Redirection Mode:- 1-to-many routed RS-232
A link is opened when a receiver(s) is connected to a transmitter in the system. Once established the RS-232 commands can be sent
in either direction between products, allowing a single command to be sent to 1 or many receivers at the same time I.E - All displays
powered on. If the source is changed
3)
Type 2 Guest Mode:- Telnet/IP conversion to RS-232
This method of control converts a Telnet/IP control command into an RS-232 command. A link is programmed that creates an open
connection between an EL-4KPM-VIP-CTRL control module and any EL-4KPM-VIP-TX or RX (Transmitters or Receivers) product in the
system. Telnet/IP commands are sent into the EL-4KPM-VIP-CTRL from a third party control solution. This is then converted into an
RS-232/serial command for control of third party products.
