6.2  Controlling via RS-232 (for example, using a PC) 

To connect a PC to the 

OMX-SW5x5

 unit, using the Null-modem adapter 

provided 

with

 the machine (recommended): 

Connect the RS-232 DB9 rear panel port on the Master 

OMX-SW5x5

 

unit to the Null-modem adapter and connect the Null-modem adapter 

with a 9 wire flat cable to the RS-232 DB9 port on your PC 

To connect a PC to the 

OMX-SW5x5

 unit, 

without

 using a Null-modem 

adapter: 

Connect the RS-232 DB9 port on your PC to the RS-232 DB9 rear panel 

port on the Master 

OMX-SW5x5

 unit, as Figure 4 illustrates
