Introduction; Installation - Samsung PPM42S2 Owner's Instructions Manual

Introduction

A multiple display control is an application allowing various displays to be easily and simultaneously
operated on a PC. RS232C, a standard of serial communication, is used for the communication
between a PC and a display. Therefore, a serial cable should be connected between the serial port on
a PC and the serial port on a display. Figure 1 shows connections between a PC and a display.
Notes
• Before using the RS232C control function, confirm whenever each ID of the PDPs that you want to
control is set or not, and they are individual each other. If not, first set your ID number.
(See page 63 'Setting the multi control' in the owner's instructions of your PDP).
• When controlling more than four PDPs or using an extra cable, not the serial cable which is included
in PDP, the MDC maybe operate abnormally.
