Rs-232 Control; Ethernet/Ip Control; Ir Passthrough Installation And Setup - Binary B-520-MTRX-230-8x8 Instruction Manual

6.7.2. RS-232 Control

To control the B-520-MTRX-230-8x8 / B-520-MTRX-230-6x4+2 with RS-232, the devices must connect using the
correct pin configuration for the control system in use.
The matrix switcher receives control data on pin 2 (RxD – Data Receive) and transmits control data on pin 3
(TxD-Data Transmit). See the diagram below for details.
Configuration for control system serial ports can vary. Refer to the documentation for the system in use to ensure
proper connection and configuration.
Note: This port is also used to communicate with a PC when using the PC Configuration Utility. Refer to the
Configuration Utility Manual for details.

6.7.3. Ethernet/IP Control

The B-520-MTRX-230-8x8 / B-520-MTRX-230-6x4+2 includes an Ethernet port that can be used to control
the device using Telnet Protocol. This port follows TIA 568 A/B standards; please refer to these standards when
terminating cables.
To configure the matrix switcher for use with the driver, it will be necessary to connect the unit to a PC and access
it with the Matrix Configuration Utility. See the Configuration Utility Manual and the IP driver documentation for
complete setup instructions.

6.8. IR Passthrough Installation and Setup

To utilize IR passthrough between a display location and the matrix switcher, install a B-520-RX-230-IR HDBaseT
receiver at the display and connect using Category cable to the matrix. The matrix switcher and the matrix receiver
are equipped with ports to allow IR commands to be sent to the display or from the display area. This section
details the pinouts and correct use of the IR passthrough ports.
