Chapter 1 • Introduction to the RGB 302/304

DIP Switch Settings

The RGB 302/304 includes a rear panel DIP switch
bank which will activate Digital Display Sync
Processing, remove/pass serration pulses, and set 75
Ohm/high impedance video input termination.

RS-232 Control Interface for Remote Control

The RGB 302/304 has a built-in RS-232 interface to
allow the unit to be controlled remotely in either of two
ways:

1. Use the Windows® RGB 302/304 Control Panel

software provided by Extron (see next section).

2. The user may write software to control the RGB 302/

304 from a PC or control system. See the
Programmer’s Guide in Appendix A.

The RS-232 protocol is fixed at 9600 baud, no parity, 8
data bits and 1 stop bit.

Benefits of Windows® RGB 302/304 Software

Using the Windows® software provided with the
RGB 302/304 adds several advantages over Front
Panel operation.

• All of the controls are quick and easy to use with

the on-screen control panel.

• Application setups can be stored as disk files,

therefore, an unlimited number of setups can be
stored and reloaded from the PC’s hard drive or
floppy disk.

Refer to Chapter 4 for details on using this software.
