RS232 Communication

RS232 control is not necessary for operation, but is a convenient way to control displays from a computer at a distance. If your installation will not use RS232 control, you can skip this section. Most things you can do with the remote, you can do with RS232 commands. Plus, you can send inquiries to the displays and find out the current settings and values.
