Operation
The VGA 4x1 Switcher features built-in firmware that
allows commands from an ASCII terminal to be sent
directly to the device via either a USB or RS232
connection (not both simultaneously). If connecting with
an RS232 cable, ensure that the cable has the straight-
through configuration shown in Figure 6.
Figure 6: RS232 Cable Configuration
Port Control is performed with either the MuxLab
Control Center software, described in Section 3.7, or
with a terminal emulator such as the one available under
Windows with the ASCII Command Set described in
Appendix A. Please note that USB to RS232 converter
cables are not supported.
