    ICC and ICW Smart TV Controllers. The ICC2 TV Controller communicates bi-directionally over the same RF coax that carries the CATV channels, while the ICC1 TV Controller receives commands over RF. The ICW TV Controllers connects over a twisted-pair network using Category 5 or Category 3 wiring and connectors.

  • Page 8: Rs-232 Control Protocol

    RS-232 control for up to 4000 TV Controllers is provided through an iC-series Head-End Network Controller. The ICC-HE Head-End manages iC-Net communication over RF Coax to ICC1 (1-way) and ICC2 (2-Way) TV Controllers as well as ICW TV Controllers over twisted-pair Cat3/5 wiring. The ICW-HE Head-End operates on the twisted-pair network only.

  • Page 14: Ic-Net Zones

    You've probably figured out that you never want to assign a virtual device number to an actual device in the system. If you assigned #1536 to a device, all the TV controllers in Zone 6 would respond every time you sent a command to that one device.
  • Page 15: System Map

    One of the key tasks for iC-Net integrators is to create a logical System Map, assigning device numbers to TV controllers so they fall into logical zones. The device mapping could be sorted by type or location; whichever suits the application.

    Typical RF and ICC-Net Signal Flow The diagram below shows the structure of a typical Contemporary Research media retrieval system. One of the key aspects for iCC-Net communication is to provide a forward and return (sub-channel) path for data if you’re using ICC2 2-way TV Controllers.
