•
•
•
•
Two bidirectional RS-232 captive screw serial ports that can control two
RS-232 devices
One bidirectional RS-232 captive screw serial port that can communicate with one
RS-232 serially controlled device.
Two IR/Serial ports for one-way control of external devices
Four digital I/O ports for interfacing with other systems in the room
Four relays for controlling room functions such as lighting, screen settings, and
other device functions.
eBUS port for connecting eBUS button panels and accessories
Ethernet monitoring and control of AV devices using a standard Ethernet network
DHCP server for AV LAN automatically distributes IP addresses and network
configuration parameters for AV devices connected to the local AV LAN.
AV LAN permits communications from the Ethernet port for remote
management and firmware updates to Extron devices. Extron devices on the
AV LAN can receive firmware updates and be remotely monitored, managed, and
controlled through Extron GlobalViewer Enterprise.
Building Management System (BMS) protocols, such as BACnet, KNX, and DALI,
which allow for centralized monitoring and control of mechanical and electrical systems
that include HVAC, lighting, power, fire, and security.
