RS232 Operation
The RS232 port of the VPX-1701 can be used for bi-directional RS232 signal pass-through between the VPX-1701 and an HDBT receiver.
To set up for RS232 pass-through:
1.
Connect an RS232 Master (or Slave) Device to the RS232 port of the VPX-1701 with an RS232 cable (See Pinout Information
Section for RS232 wiring);
2.
Connect an RS232 Slave (or Master) Device to the RS232 port of an HDBT receiver with an RS232 cable.
3.
Connect HDBT OUT of the VPX-1701 to HDBT IN of the HDBT receiver with a Cat 5e/6/7 cable.
When the connections are complete, an RS232 signal can be passed through bi-directionally between two RS232 devices.
