5.1 Identifying the Built-in Remote Receiver

Most Kramer switchers
located to the left of the power switch, as Figure 2 illustrates:

5.2 Connecting the External Remote Receiver

When your RS-232 controlled Kramer switcher has no built-in front panel
remote receiver, you can use the external remote receiver
external remote receiver includes an attached RS-232 cable with a DB9
connector, and a 12V DC power socket.
To connect the external remote receiver, as the example in Figure 3
illustrates, do the following:
1. Connect the external remote receiver to the RS-232 port on the Kramer
switcher, via one of the following methods:
•
A direct one-to-one connection, by simply connecting the attached
RS-232 cable's DB9 connector to the RS-232 DB9 port on the switcher
•
An extended (up to about 25 meters) one-to-one connection, by
connecting a flat cable, or by just connecting PIN # 2 to PIN # 2, PIN # 3 to
PIN # 3, and PIN # 5 to PIN # 5 (ground) between the attached RS-232 cable's
1 Some switchers do not have a built-in remote receiver. For these units, an external remote receiver may be connected to the
switcher. When ordering a IR-1-01 remote control transmitter, a separate order must be made for an external remote receiver
if you want to use the IR-1-01 to control a Kramer switcher that has no built-in remote receiver—such as the VS-1002,
VS-1202, VS-1602, and VS-1604
