RS-232 Ports
Both the FOX Tx AV and FOX Rx AV have a front panel TRS port and a rear panel captive
screw port, which can provide SIS commands to configure the transmitter/receiver settings
when connected to a control device.
for the FOX Tx/Rx AV start on page 13.
NOTE: The two comm ports work in parallel. However, depending on the computer or
the communication settings, connecting to both comm ports at once may result
in one or both ports not working. Extron recommends that only one comm port
(front or back) is used at a time.
The protocol for both ports is 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no flow
control.
NOTE: Both RS-232 Remote and RS-232 Over Fiber signals require fiber optic link 1 and
(see page 12).
The front panel Config port uses a 2.5 mm mini jack connector. Extron recommends the
9-pin D Female to 2.5 mm TRS Configuration Cable (part number 70-335-01)
