All connections are intended to be industry standard but differentiated such that user error is minimized. All
connections are on the rear panel. Note – due to I/O limitations on the microprocessor, the Lantronix Serial port, the
USB port, and the Aux/Com 1 port are shared so you can connect through only one of those three connectors at a
time.
To select the Lantronix RJ45 as the input, you must flip the Network DIP switch to the "LAN" position. This option
is selected if the transmitter must talk to a remote server.
To connect to the USB or Aux/Com 1 port, you must flip that switch to the "Local" position. This option is selected
if the transmitter will run stand-alone, or connected to a local server through the USB port.
When the switch is in the "Local" position, the USB dominates because the transmitter will detect the power voltage
and automatically switch the internal connection to the USB port, so if the transmitter is connected to a server locally
through the USB connection, the Aux/COM 1 port is deactivated. If a standard RS232 cable is plugged into the
Aux/Com 1 port, that port then is the input, as long as the switch is in the "Local" position and there is no USB cable
attached.
