GV-Control Center 

 

35

The diagram below illustrates the wiring to multiple GV-Control Centers and uses GV-NET 
Card as RS-485/RS232 interface converter as example. 

 

Figure 2-4 

 

Note:

   

1.  Because RS-485 communication has distance limitation, the distance between each 

Keyboard and the GV-Control Center must be within 600 meters (1968.5 feet). 

2.  You can only use either USB port or RS-485 port on the Keyboard. Don’t connect the 

USB cable on the Keyboard when using RS-485 connection. 

 
To set up the Keyboard to control multiple GV-Control Centers and switch control among 
these servers, see
