RS-232 SERIAL COMMUNICATION CONFIGURATION

RS-232 Serial Control

The RS-232 transmission from the CAT54000 receiver units must be configured for use on either channel 1 or on channels 2 and 3. By default, the CAT54000 units are configured to work on channels 2 and 3. To enable the RS-232 transmission for channel 1, a DIP (Dual In-line Package) switch must be enabled. This DIP switch is located on the underside of the CAT54000 receiver unit beneath a piece of metallic colored tape.

When using the CAT54000 receiver unit for the dual outputs on channel 1, please use the instructions below to enable the proper RS-232 transmission between the sender and receiver units.
