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:
