Figure 2.13. RS-232 Serial Port Connections
NOTES: 1) The VistaPro 2000 serial connections require a 9-pin D connector.
Refer to Appendix D for complete cable wiring requirements. 2) The
"NETWORK OUT" port is provided for networking applications only — see "If
using multiple projectors", below. 3) The spare port is used for de-bugging and
testing by qualified service personnel only.
You may wish to use a computer rather than a keypad for controlling the
projector and for performing other special functions. Connect an RS-232 serial
communication cable between the computer and the projector serial port labeled
"NETWORK IN" (Figure 2.14). Then set the baud rate to match that of the
computer. Changing the baud rate is described in 3.7, Controlling System
Parameters.

Note: PC software is required for computer control. Contact your dealer or
Electrohome for details.
You may wish to use one or more external Marquee switchers or third-party
switchers in order to significantly increase the number of sources you can use.
Connect an RS-232 serial communication cable between the switcher and the
projector serial port labeled "SWITCHER" (Figure 2.15). This port is
permanently set at 9600 baud.
