■ Connection with RS-232 cable
If you connect the monitor in a daisy chain using RS-232
cable, using the monitor buttons on the primary (main unit),
settings are copied to the secondary (expansion unit) and
operation from the primary can perform operation for all
monitors. Setting each ID No. in the monitor is required.
1. Connect the monitors in order.
The first monitor will be set as primary (main unit) and the
second monitor and beyond will be secondaries (expansion
units).
Connect the RS-232C output terminal of the first monitor
(primary) and the RS-232C input terminal of the second
monitor (secondary) together using RS-232 cable (straight).
Connect in the same way to the third and subsequent monitors.
Up to 25 monitors can be connected. (Depending on the length
of the cable used and the surrounding environment.)

2. Set the ID No.
Perform operation with the rear side buttons on the primary
monitor. If you set AUTO ASSIGN ID No., located in the menu
of the monitor to ON, the ID No. will be automatically assigned
in order from the primary. (See page 24.)
(If you attach PN-ZR01 the control kit (optional), you can
perform operation of the monitors with the remote control unit.)
■ Connection with the control kit (optional)
If performing operation of the monitor with the remote control
unit, the PN-ZR01 control kit (optional) is required.
• Can perform operation of an arbitrary monitor or all
monitors with the remote control unit of the first monitor.
• Can perform operation of up to 25 monitors.
• Connect the monitors together in a daisy chain with RS-232
cable.
Attach the remote control sensor box as shown in the following
illustration.
* When attached to the left side, because the top and
bottom for the remote control sensor box will be reversed
(the connection cable will be on top), the right side is
recommended.
Caution
• When attaching the remote control sensor box, turn the
main power switch OFF.
• Except for the remote control sensor box connection cable,
do not insert any other cable into the control kit terminal.
Also, do not connect any connection cables that have been
extended with commercially available cables.

1. Insert the anti-rotation protrusion of the mounting
bracket into the anti-rotation hole of the monitor.
2. Secure the stand angling hole of the monitor with the
mounting screw.
3. Adjust the angle of the remote control sensor box, and
secure it with the fixing screw, so that it may accurately
receive signals from the remote control unit.

TIPS
• When you connect the remote control sensor box, the
brightness sensor can be used.
The screen brightness will automatically change according
to lighting conditions and the surrounding brightness. (See
page 25.)
• Depending on where it has been placed or the surrounding
conditions, the remote control sensor box may be
affected by the brightness of the main unit screen and the
brightness sensor may respond.
• Do not install the remote control sensor box in extremely
bright or dark areas. The brightness sensor may not
function properly.
