    If needed, fix CATV problems before installing the system. 2. Connect the CATV RF Coax cable into the RF In input on the ICC1-232. 3. If the iCC-Net signal is operating, the Net LED will blink once per second.
  • Page 6: Setting Rs-232 Control Codes

    Setting RS-232 Control Codes The DIP switches S1 and S1 at the bottom of the ICC1-232 serve in two modes, IR Type, Channel Entry and Device Number, determined by S2 Switch 6 and S2 Switch 5. In this section, you’ll set up the manufacturer’s IR codes sent from the IR Out port.

    Setting Device Number and In the next step, you’ll need to set up the device number and operation parameters for the ICC1-232. Notice that the functions of the S1 and S2 switches change when you set the unit in Device mode.

    It’s much easier to pre-configure ahead of time than perform the task once the displays are installed. RS-232 Control Wiring 1. Connect the CC-232 cable from the ICC1-232 to the display. 2. Mount the ICC1-232 to the TV using included Velcro tape.

    In ABC-Net, we reserve the first group of devices, 1-255, for components operating on a connected control system. Zones 1-16 are used for CR TV Controllers, Video Display Controllers and Tuners. As it’s unlikely any system will use all 4000 devices, this may be a good device standard for your system as well.

    3 = Physical HD Major-Minor tuning (physical channel, minor digital) TC Response “$A5,<dh>,<dl>,3,’H2’,<response>” (7 bytes) This pre-sets how the ICC1-232 will respond to TC tuning commands. 0= Ignore, use current settings 1= Analog Only 2= Digital (For CableCard applications only) Control String "$A5,<dh>,<dl>,2+string length>,'UX'<string>"...
  • Page 11 Tune HD “$A5,<dh>,<dl>,5,’TH’,<H1>,<Major>,<Minor>” (9 bytes) – Digital Tuning Normally, the H1 parameter is 0, allowing the ICC1-232 to use the current H1 tuning format, but it could be used to force a different tuning option. When the display is set to the H1=1 mode, the Major-Minor bytes will represent the high and low bytes of the 5-digit number.
  • Page 12: Ic-Net Zones

    The ICC1-IR and ICC1-232 controllers typical for many SignStream display control systems are designed to follow a Zone address format. You can use the 4 top switches in the second DIP switch (S2) to define the controller’s Zone.
