Remote control port setup
The IN1502 can be remotely controlled via a host computer
or other device (such as a control system) attached to the rear
panel RS-232 9-pin D female connector. RS-232 protocol for this
connection is:
9600 baud
•
no parity
•
1 Stop bit
•
no flow control
•
The control device (host) can use the Extron Simple Instruction
Set (SIS) commands. See Chapter 3 "Serial Communications",
of the IN1502 User's Manual for complete information on serial
control.
The serial connector also provides a way to select an input
using a remote contact closure device. The connector has the
following pin assignments:
