Automation Debug and M2100 Debug Functions
Two automation debug functions are provided in the
GENERAL
window. One is for the Evertz
automation protocol and is called
Automation Debug
. The other is for the M2100 automation protocol
and is called
M2100 Auto Debug
. Both work in essentially the same way. When you turn on one of
the automation debug functions, the data packets being received from the automation system are
output to the 4-pin connector on the front of the 7825DSK2(-HD)(-3G) module card edge. Use the
supplied multi-colored ribbon cable-DB9 adapter. To view the data, use a terminal program with the
following settings: baud rate: 57600, data bits: 8, parity: none, stop bits: 2, flow control: none.
These functions are used to view the commands that are being sent by the automation system. If you
are having problems with a unit that is being controlled from automation, Evertz service personnel
may ask you to provide a capture of the data being output on the serial port when the debug function
is turned on.
