Serial Communication

c

Flex I/O ports — Four I/O ports permit connection of switches and sensors to provide

input to the system, and contact closure activation of relays for power, screen, or
projector lift control (output). Plug a serial cable into this 3.5 millimeter, 5-pole captive
screw connector for flexible I/O connection (see

Flex I/O Connection

).

d

COM ports — Plug a 3.5 millimeter, 5-pole captive screw connector into this socket

for serial ports 1 and 2.
Factory default protocol for the control interface is:

RS-232

8 data bits

pacing = 0 milliseconds

9600 baud

1 stop bit

handshaking = off

no parity

e

IR ports — Plug an IR cable into this 3.5 millimeter, 8-pole captive screw connector

for infrared connections (see

IR Connection

).

The IPL T SFI244 unit can be used to control display devices, switchers, and other A/V
equipment via an RS-232 connection.
