Connect RS232 Control (Optional)

In addition to traditional RS232 control, the DIGI-P52 has an advanced RS232 control mechanism which allows

RS232 tunneling through the HDBaseT output port to control remote devices. This same signal path allows the

DIGI-P52 to be controlled from a remote location. Intelix recommends using the DIGI-HD60C-R for installations

which require RS232 extension.

See page 25 for all available control commands for the DIGI-P52.

Scaler and Remote Device Control via Local RS232

The RS232 control port requires a standard straight-through serial cable for operation, which is included with

the product. The default settings for the RS232 port are:

• 9600 baud

• 8 Data Bits

• 1 Stop Bit

• Parity = none

Connect the included straight-through serial cable between the

RS232 port on the DIGI-P52 and the controller.

To use the RS232 extension capabilities of the DIGI-P52, simply send the RS232 command of the remote display

to the DIGI-P52. Consult the manual of the control device(s) to determine which pins the TX/RX signals are

carried on. Be sure to always connect TX to RX and RX to TX.

Remote Scaler RS232 Control via HDBaseT

The DIGI-P52 may be controlled from a remote location via a compatible HDBaseT receiver with RS232 control

pass-through. To enable this feature, send the following command to the local RS232 input of the DIGI-P52:

50788%

To return to default RS232 functionality, send 50787% to the local RS232 input port.
