the Primary DHD
Controller (Optional)
The DHD Controller provides the following interfaces to external equipment that allow it to
control or be controlled by that equipment:
• An RS-232 interface to a PC or control/automation system;
• Three (3), 12-volt trigger outputs;
• An infrared (IR) repeater input;
• An Ethernet network interface for firmware updates and maintenance notifications.
The following sections describe how to make these interface connections.
RS-232 Controller Connection: Use a straight-through, 9-pin RS-232 cable to connect
a PC or control/automation system (if present) to the RS-232 port on the DHD Controller;
see Figure 3-14.
