MAGENTA MONDO MATRIX
CHAPTER 2: Introduction
2.2 Design Guidelines, cont.
Frame Addressing is Important
All control of the Mondo III is input via the Master frame.
In the Mondo III architecture, any frame can be configured to be the Master regardless of its address, but it is
recommended to make the first frame addressed 00 to be the master. Master frames are set via the LCD. See
Section 4 for details.
There can only be one Master frame in a system.
The Mondo III master frame intelligently configures itself when powered on by locating all other slave frames
and based on a specific addresses can route switch commands to the correct frame. The master frame should
be powered on last for this to occur.
There is no need to configure the Mondo III beyond setting frame addresses if default serial port settings are
used. If other serial port settings need to be configured or if using other serial input ports, please configure them
according to instructions in Section 4.
Please follow Table 1 on page 9 for address guidelines.
Frame addressing is done via the LCD on the rear of the frame. See Section 4 for details.
It is necessary to power cycle the frame to make the address change go into effect.
The master frame also requires to be re-initialized when a slave frame address is changed or added. This can
be accomplished using the #I command or a power reset.
Following are some examples of frame addressing based on specific Mondo III Matrix sizes.
