9 Kramer VP-727A Protocol (Ver. 3.21)
A protocol for the
VP-727A
is described below.
For RS-232: A null-modem connection between the PC and the
VP-727A
is
required, and data is at 9600 baud (for standalone
1
), no parity, 8 data bits, and 1
stop bit.
For RS-485: A differential (2 wire) connection between the
VP-727
(
xl
) and the
VP-727A
is required (A, B; GND may be connected to the shield if required).
All values shown are hexadecimal.
