The DPxK B-series projector can be connected to a LAN (local area network) using one of the Ethernet ports (1). Once connected
to the LAN, users can access the projector from any location, inside or outside (if allowed) their company network using the Com-
municator software. This software locates the projector on the network if there is a DHCP server or the user can insert the correct
IP-address to access the projector. Once accessed, it is possible to check and manipulate all the projector settings. Remote diag-
nostics, control and monitoring of the projector can then become a daily and very simple operation. The network connectivity allows
detection of potential errors and consequently improve service time.
As there is a need to daisy chain projectors when they are on an Ethernet network, an Ethernet switch is built in. the incoming
network is hereby available for the internal PC and for the next device in the chain. In this way a 'star' network interconnection can
be avoided. The switch used is a stand alone 10/100/1000Mbit Ethernet switch. This assures no influence on the network speed.
RS232 IN
This female DB-9 connector allows you to use a standard serial cable up to 10 meter to connect the touch panel interface with the
projector. Note that the RS232 protocol is used on this connection.
RS232
An Electronic Industries Association (EIA) serial digital interface standard specifying the characteristics of the commu-
nication path between two devices using either D-SUB 9 pins or D-SUB 25 pins connectors. This standard is used for
relatively short-range communications and does not specify balanced control lines. RS-232 is a serial control standard
with a set number of conductors, data rate, word length and type of connector to be used. The standard specifies com-
ponent connection standards with regard to computer interface. It is also called RS-232-C, which is the third version
of the RS-232 standard, and is functionally identical to the CCITT V.24 standard. Logical '0' is > + 3V, Logical '1' is < -
3V. The range between -3V and +3V is the transition zone.
GENERAL PURPOSE IN/OUT
This 37 pin connector can be used to send or receive trigger signals from other devices. These input/output pins can be programmed
by macros created on the Communicator touch panel. See user's guide of the Touch panel, section Macro editor, for more informa-
tion about this functionality. Note that the General Purpose Inputs accept 24 volt maximum.
