Adder Technology 5000 manual Remote switching control, Host computer port/channel

Remote switching control

The port switching functions of the AdderView CATxIP		REMOTE
5000 unit can be remotely controlled by an RS232 link to		CONTROL
the OPTIONS port on the rear panel.
The sending device must use the following RS232
communication settings:
Baud rate:	19200 bps
Data bits:	8
Parity:	None
Stop bits:	1

No handshaking is implemented, however, valid command characters will be echoed back to the sending device.

Note: You must ensure that the AdderView CATxIP 5000 unit has it Options serial ports set to ‘Sync Units’. This setting (together with the baud rate selection) can be made either via the local or global user configuration menus.

The value of the byte received via the serial link determines which computer port should be linked through to the user port. The table given here summarises the valid control codes:
