Static Addressing Connected Directly to a PC
Assign an IP address to the SF-16M which will not conflict with the PC.
• Windows 7: Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > Change adapter settings > Local Area Connection (or
Wi-Fi adapter) > Details
• Windows XP: control panel > network > local connection properties
Change the TCP/IP protocol properties, and set the IP address, gateway, and
subnet mask, if they are not already set. This can be arbitrarily done on a
direct connection, but a good choice for the settings would be IP address of
192.168.0.1
, subnet mask of
255.255.255.0
, and an empty default gateway.
Once these values have been set, use serial commands to set the network
settings of the SF-16M in a similar manner, but use a different IP address than
that of the computer (for example, 192.168.0.2).
Static Addressing on a Network
The SF-16M must be set to the same settings as the PC except for the IP address, which must be one available on the
network. To determine this in Windows, use the DOS prompt (Start->Run->cmd) commands ipconfig and ping. Ipconfig
will list the PC’s settings, and ping will allow you to test addresses to make sure that nothing else on the network has that
address. Enlist the help of a network administrator if you are unfamiliar with setting up a network connection.
Once a connection is established, a Telnet program such as Hyper Terminal, Tera Term, PuTTY etc, must be used to
connect to the device. Enter the IP address of the SF-16M and leave the default port (23) to connect. Once connected,
standard serial commands can be issued in an identical manner to serial control.
Using an IR Control System
The SF-16M uses a two wire IR circuit. It is imperative that the correct polarity be maintained when connecting third party
IR equipment. The 3.5MM pinout is shown in the illustration below ( Figure 15 ).
Connect the IR signal from your IR controller directly to the main IR input port on the rear panel. Alternatively, adhere an
IR emitter from your infrared system onto the SF-16M front panel receiver.
If the SF-16M IR codes are available from your remote control company, download and/or activate those files. A CCF file
containing the latest codes can be downloaded from our website on the SF-16M product page.

Tips for Using Infrared Control
• If you are using standard hand-held IR
remote controls, ensure correct operation
by avoiding sources of light pollution such
as Plasma and LCD TVs, direct sunlight,
fluorescent light, etc. Experiment with the
physical placement of the IR receiver to
avoid interference.
• If a source of interference cannot be
eliminated or avoided, use IR receivers
that block that type of interference, such
as Plasma-proof or LCD-proof receivers.
• The SF-16M back panel IR input provides
no power, and therefore requires a
connecting block if used with an IR
receiver.
• The loop out to another unit or device is
compatible with a mono or stereo 3.5mm
patch cable.
