Software Operation via a Serial Port
•
The serial ports are independent of one another. A front panel Configuration port
connection and a rear panel Remote RS-232/RS-422 port connection can be active at
the same time.
•
The default serial port protocol of both ports is as follows:
•
9600 baud
•
No parity
•
8-bit
•
No flow control
•
1 stop bit
•
The serial ports can be configured to operate at the 9600, 19200, 38400, or 115200
baud rate but Extron recommends leaving these ports at 9600 baud only.
•
SIS commands
on page 109 to configure either port
using an SIS command.
