You may wish to chain two or more projectors together so that commands and
communications to and from a controller are relayed to all projectors. Choose a
hardware configuration that best suits your desired communication method.

RS232 NETWORK
: To control multiple projectors with a computer/controller having
an RS232 interface, first set all projectors to the same baud rate as the controller, then
chain the projectors together by connecting the
projector (already connected to the computer/controller) to the
the next projector in the chain. Continue connecting projectors in this manner until
you've reached the last projector in the chain, so that only the last projector has an
RS232 OUT
unused port. See Figure 2.32.
