Remote switching control
The port switching functions of the SC5-4xIP unit can be
remotely controlled by an RS232 link to the
OPTIONS
port on
the rear panel.
The sending device must use the following RS232
communication settings:
Baud rate: 19200 bps
Data bits:
8
Parity:
None
Stop bits:
1
No handshaking is implemented, however, valid command characters will be
echoed back to the sending device.
Note: You must ensure that the SC5-4xIP
unit has it Options serial ports set to
‘Sync Units’. This setting (together with the baud rate selection) can be made
either via the
local
or
global
user configuration menus.
The value of the byte received via the serial link determines which computer port
should be linked through to the user port. The table given here summarises the
valid control codes:
