Connection to Mercury Controllers:

Using a standard CAT5 patch lead, connect the serial output of the RDM Controller to one of the RS232 ports of the Mercury Hub.

RS232 Lead Lengths

For mains powered hubs, patch lead maximum length must not exceed 15 metres. (ports 1 - 10)

For Mercury powered hubs, inputs 1 and 2 patch leads must not exceed 5 metres, ports 3 - 10 must not exceed 15 metres.

The 3-character address that will be seen on the system front end is determined by the position of the two Network ID rotary switches and the port the controller has been connected to.

Connection to other IP equipment

Use a standard CAT5 patch lead to connect other IP equipment to the Mercury Hub (such as a Futura IP module) into the 10Base T ports 1 or 2.

Connection to another Mercury Hub or Other Ethernet Hub/switch

Use a standard CAT5 patch lead from the Uplink port into a standard IP port on the next Hub.

Connection to a Data Manager/Director

Use a standard CAT5 patch lead and connect the Data Manager or Data Director to one of the two 10 Base T ports.
