PROCESSOR CONNECTOR PIN CONFIGURATIONS
The processor is controlled via the “Host” RS-232 connector. This connector is a standard 9-pin 'D'
(male) connector with a one-one pin mapping as the standard IBM PC Serial (COM) port
connectors. Only 3 wires are required for correct operation.
The Loop RS-232 connector is used to daisy-chain multiple Brick processors to support large video
wall arrays, it can also be used to enable the processor to control other RS-232 devices.
The Loop RS-232 connector is a standard 9-pin 'D' connector with a crossover pin relative to Host
RS-232 connector, to enable multiple RS-232 devices to be daisy chained (Loop RS-232 to Host
RS-232 to Loop RS-232, etc.) using same RS-232 cable supplied with each processor.
