  • Page 4: Combination Connection

    RS-232C Adjustment 3 Combination Connection When controlling/adjusting panels, it is convenient to connect several displays to one PC. By performing a combination connection and assigning IDs to the panels, it is possible to control and adjust several displays at the same time or separately. Connection method: Connect the panels as shown in the figure below.
  • Page 5: Id Assignment

    RS-232C Adjustment 4 ID Assignment The ID is assigned from the PC. Commands: <IDC> (ID CLEAR) ..Clears the assigned ID <IDS> (ID SET) ..... Assigns an ID IDS is only effective when an ID is not assigned. IDs are assigned starting from the panel closest to the PC. Example: Case of 4 displays (assigning IDs with the PC for the first time) First, connect an RS-232C and combination cables.
