Remote Control Support
Use the information in this section to assist you in setting up an external device to control your server.
Remote Communications (RS-422)
Direct serial control of two channel transports is available through the RJ45 ports on the breakout cable
connected to the server. Ethernet communications can also be used to control all channel transport
instead of the direct serial connection.
Note:
The BVW-75 and Odetics protocols are not supported over ethernet at this time.
The procedure for setting up a room for external control depends on the protocol you want to use.
To Configure a Room for the BVW-75 Protocol
Set up a Room to use the BVW-75 protocol to control server channels.
Note:
The BVW-75 protocol does not support clip library listing or clip loading.
