Introduction

A multiple display control is an application allowing various displays to be easily and simultaneously operated on a PC. RS232C, a standard of serial communication, is used for the communication between a PC and a display. Therefore, a serial cable should be connected between the serial port on a PC and the serial port on a display. Figure 1 shows connections between a PC and a display.

Notes

Before using the RS232C control function, confirm whenever each ID of the PDPs that you want to control is set or not, and they are individual each other. If not, first set your ID number.

(See page 63 ‘Setting the multi control’ in the owner’s instructions of your PDP).

When controlling more than four PDPs or using an extra cable, not the serial cable which is included in PDP, the MDC maybe operate abnormally.
