RS-232 Network

Using the wrong type of serial cable can damage the projector. RS-232 communication
cables must be of good quality and no more than 25 ft (7.62 m) in length. Failure to comply
may result in equipment damage.
In an RS-232 network the controller can communicate with the first projector and the command can
be relayed to each serially connected projector.
1. Connect the controller to 1 projector by connecting a serial cable between the PC and the RS-232
IN port on the input panel.
2. Connect a serial cable between the RS-232 OUT connector of the first projector and the RS-232
IN connector of the next projector.
3. Connect the remaining projectors.
4. Set the RS-232 serial options in Configuration > Communications > Serial (RS-232 IN)
Options. See
5. Set network routing in Configuration > Communications > Network Routing to RS-232
and RS-422 Joined. See
