4. Serial Control

 

The video input selection and signal parameter settings for the TVB-
400 can be controlled via an external control system by using the RS-
232 port on the unit. A free Windows® control software is available 
that permits remote control of the unit from a PC via RS-232. 

Use a straight thru M/F DB9 serial cable to connect the unit to the PC. 
Only the TX, RX and GND pins are implemented in the connector. The 
RS232 port operates at 9600 baud, no parity and 1 stop bit. Control 
codes are 3 bytes long. In the table shown below, the 1
