b. PESA INTERFACE OPTION
The SW32PS with the Pesa Interface Option makes the SW32PS act as a matrix of a Pesa
switcher, which allows control of switching of RS422 signals.
1) INSTALLATION
Connect the connector labeled “RS422” on the back of the SW32PS using a 9-
pin cable and a supplied turnaround adapter to the COM3/PRC connector on the
back of the PESA SYSTEM CONTROLLER.
(Communication Protocol: 38.4 K, No Parity, 8 bits, 1 stop bit)
2) SETUP ON THE WIN 3500 CONTROL SYSTEM
a)
Using PESA WIN 3500 software to create an RS422 component, name
it, then assign a level to it.
b)
Component type must be PRC.
c)
Assign a strobe number (1- 62). Input and Output Offsets should be set
to 0.
3) SETUP on the SW32PS
a) Press [MENU] on the SW32PS.
b)
The display shows “Set Strobe.”
Press [TAKE].
c)
The display shows current Strobe number.

Turn the Wheel to select a strobe number 1-62.
The number must match a strobe number that was assigned to the

[ESC] twice to leave the Strobe Setup mode.
The SW32PS now behaves as a matrix of a PESA switcher.
NOTE: In the MENU, FROM, TO and VIEW modes, the SW32PS stops
communication with the PESA router. If no key is pressed or no Wheel
movement detected for 10 seconds in any mode, the SW32PS automatically
returns to normal operation mode and communication with the PESA Router is
restored.
