Connection Options
The SMD 101 Streaming Media Decoder can be remotely connected via a host computer or
other device (such as a control system) attached to the rear panel RS-232 port or LAN port,
or the front panel USB Config port.
The SMD 101 can be configured and controlled using SIS commands or embedded web
pages. SIS commands can be executed using the Extron DataViewer program, found on
the Extron website.

RS-232 Port
The SMD 101 has a rear serial port (see
to a host device such as a computer running a HyperTerminal utility, or the Extron
DataViewer utility. The port makes serial control of the player possible. Use the protocol
information listed above to make the connection (see
on page 115). The port can also be configured as pass-through for direct RS-232 control
of a connected display using serial commands via the network.
