5.4.1 IR address
Why a IR address ?
As more than one Solaris LC40 can be installed in a room, the separate Solaris LC40 should be separately addressable with an
RCU. Therefor each Solaris LC40 has its own address.
Set up an individual IR Address.
The set up of a LCD panel IR address can be done via the software.
Solaris LC40 controlling.
EverySolaris LC40 requires an individual address between 0 and 9 which can be set in the Se rvice menu.
When the addressis set, the Solaris LC40 can be controlled by the remote control:
Ifit is necessary to control a specific LCD pan el,then en tert he LCD panel address into the RCU (only when
thataddress is between 0 and 9). TheSolaris LC40 with the correspo nding address will listen to that specific
RCU.
5.4.2 Displaying and Programming IR addresses into the RCU
Displaying the LCD panel IR Address on the Screen.
1. Press the Address key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil.
The Solaris LC40’saddress will be displayed in a ’Text box’
To continue using the RCU with that specific address, it is necessary to enter the same address with the
digit buttons (address between 0 and 9) within 5 seconds after pushing the address key. For example : if
theAddress key displays L CD panel IR address 003, then press "3" digit button on the RCU to set the RCU’s
addressto match the LCD p anel’sIR address. Donot press 0–0–3 . Thiswill address the remote control to ’0’
andcontrol all LCD panels in the room. If the address is not entered within 5 seconds, the RCU returns to its
default address (zero address) and controls then all LCD panels in the room.
5.4.3 RS232 address
WhyaRS232address?
Asthe Solaris LC40 can be controlled by a computer, the separate Solaris LC40 should be separately addressable. Thereforeach
Solaris LC40 has its own address.
Set up an individual RS232 Address.
The set up of a LCD panel RS232 address can be done via the software.
