Operation

Connect power cords and turn on the display output devices (projectors, monitors, VCRs), control devices (switchers, scalers, distribution amplifiers), interface, and input devices (PC, laptop, network equipment).

Check indicator LEDs on the PC/laptop, on the interface, and on the network hub/router, etc., to ensure that all devices are plugged in and communicating. The IPL T interface is now ready to be configured (see chapter 3, Connection and Configuration).

If connection or communication problems occur, see Troubleshooting in chapter 4. If the troubleshooting tips do not help, check with your local network administrator, or call the Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline.

Information flows both ways through the IPL T SF24 and SFI244 interfaces, but control only goes from the LAN connection to the serial ports. See figure 2-10.
