IP to RS-232 Command Converter for Velocity Control
System
AT-VCC-RS232-KIT
The Atlona AT-VCC-RS232-KIT is an accessory for the Atlona Velocity™ Control System that
provides conversion between IP and RS-232 control commands. This Velocity Control Converter
is very compact and can be placed anywhere a device requires control and is not IP-capable.
The VCC-RS232-KIT is remotely powered through Power over Ethernet (PoE), or locally from a
USB power source. The primary unit installs onto any surface via a convenient mounting dock. A
simple "click" locks it into place for a secure, reliable installation. An RS-232 gender changer is
included.
Package Contents
1 x AT-VCC
1 x AT-VCC-RS232
Operating Notes
The Velocity Command Converter must be on the same network as the Velocity Gateway
(AT-VGW-250) or it will be unable to sync for control.
The AT-VCC-RS232-KIT is PoE, to power the unit, simply plug it into a PoE compatible
network switch. If the network switch is not PoE capable, a PoE injector
or USB can be used.
All devices (AT-VCC, Velocity, AT-VTP, switchers, etc) should be set to static IPs or the
DHCP IP address reserved for each individual device.
IMPORTANT: Velocity Gateway (AT-VGW-250) must be set up before the AT-VCC-RS232-
KIT is fully functional.
