Set Up

Station Installation

• The AV/Serial Interface station fits in a standard single-gang back box.
• It requires 24vdc Aux power (J3) and ULP (J1) and an ESD ground wire.
• There is a green LED on the front of the station next to the RS-232 connector (shown below) 

that will remain on until the station is bound at the Unison processor. After the station is 
bound, it will briefly flash on as it receives information (including individual keystrokes 
while using a terminal emulator).

• The AV/Serial Interface station is similar in appearance to Unison PC Interface station. It is 

important to note that the AV/Serial Interface and the PC Interface station have different 
electronics and are not interchangeable. In addition, the AV/Serial interface station must 
include neuron code v1.4 or later to function properly with Light Manager v1.9.1.

instructions on adding the AV/Serial Interface station to your configuration.

• Add an AV/Serial Interface to the Unison configuration.

The default station type is 16 virtual buttons, 16 virtual faders and 16 levels (ST3300).

• You should specify the neuron ID in the station's properties just like any other station. (This 

is the preferred method of binding stations as it simplifies the process of connecting a 
station.)

• Configure the buttons, faders and level assignments in Light Manager as desired to be used 

as inputs (causing events in Unison), or as monitors (watching an LED state to see status
