Control System And External Device Connections - Extron electronics StudioStation 100 User Manual

Control System and External Device Connections

The StudioStation 100 can be configured and controlled from the rear panel RS-232 captive
screw port (see
(see figure
and DataViewer via Telnet port 23. It can also be configured and controlled using a standard
web browser from the LAN port. Because the LAN port must be connected for streaming
output, Extron recommends using it for configuration, control, and firmware upgrades.
USB storage device — You can attach an optional external USB storage device to the
B
front or rear USB ports to save recorded files. The storage device can be any standard
external hard drive or USB flash drive formatted with a compatible file system.
NOTE: The StudioStation 100 can detect and record to USB storage devices
using FAT32, VFAT long file name extensions, EXT2, EXT3, EXT4 file systems, or
NTFS-formatted storage volumes.
Remote RS-232 port — You can configure and control the StudioStation 100
F
using SIS commands. Connect the host RS-232 cable to the rear panel with
a 3-pole captive screw connector for bidirectional serial host control (see the
image at right for wiring).
Remote Control connector — You can control the StudioStation 100 using
G
an RCP 101 that includes a Flex55, AAP, or decorator-style wallplate.
12V external power output — The StudioStation 100 can provide external
H
power to the RCP 101 EU/MK, AAP, or wallplate through this 2-pole captive
screw connector. The 12 V power is required to power up an RCP 101 remote
controller.
RJ-45 Ethernet connector (LAN) — You can configure and control the
J
StudioStation 100 using SIS commands with a control system or PC connected
to the same LAN or WAN. Connect a standard Ethernet cable to a network.

If connecting the StudioStation 100 to an IPL T PC1 LAN port to power on and off
connected recording equipment such as a camera, studio lights, and microphone, use
a crossover cable (see figure 4 for RJ-45 wiring instructions).
