Host Mode
The matrix switchers have one 9-pin RS232 connector that allows you to control the switcher
using a standard personal computer or other external devices (such as Creston or AMX). The
switchers are shipped in the “Host” mode but can be changed to the “Terminal” mode by the
following procedure:
Connect a terminal to the serial port and send the following command:
**HOST0!!
The port now uses the terminal
protocol
.
To restore back to the Host port, send the following command:
**HOST1!!
Terminal Mode
The 9-pin connector labeled RS232/422 Control can be used for simple terminal control, (V=T100
emulation capability). The terminal performs the following functions:
Serves as an overall system controller
Sets up the personality of the entire system (size, level control, change names,
mapping, etc.)
These setups are stored in non-volatile memory so that a terminal is not required unless it is
necessary to change a setup.
