Remote switching control

The port switching functions of the AdderView CATx 1000

REMOTE

units can be remotely controlled by an RS232 link to the

CONTROL

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.

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:
