Extron • Matrix 3200/6400 Series • User's Manual
Each BME must be set to a unique address of 0 - 5 using a push-button switch
located on the rear panel (see Figure 2-2.B, Item 1). BME #0 will be the Main
Controller and may be any module except the Sync module.
If there is more than one BME, the BME COMM connectors
must all be connected together in daisy chain fashion using
Extron supplied RJ-11 telephone cable (Figure 2-2.A). The
chain begins at the BME COMM OUT connector of BME #0
(See Item 2 in Figure 2-2.B) and connects to the BME
COMM IN connector of the closest BME whose BME COMM OUT connector is
then connected to the next closest BME if necessary. Repeat this process until
all BMEs are connected (No BME will have two empty BME COMM connectors).
Connect the cable from the Host PC computer serial port to the RS-232/RS-422
connector on the rear panel of BME #0 as shown in Figure 2-2.B below (Item 3).
After the Matrix 3200/6400 System has been virtualized, it can be controlled
through this connection using a PC Host or from a touch screen or any other
user-supplied controlling device, such as AMX, Crestron, etc., that is capable of
generating the proper commands.
Each BME has its own internal power supply. Connect an AC Power cord to the
AC power receptacle on each BME (Item 4 in Figure 2-2.B). Connect the power
cord plug to an AC power source.
Each BME has a power ON/OFF toggle switch on the rear panel just above the
AC power cord receptacle. BME #0 must be powered ON at the same time or
after all other BMEs are ON. Press each power switch to the ON (1) position,
