The device can be controlled via Device Control Protocol (DCP), an XML-based protocol (see Appendix E).

There are two DCP modes:

1.DCP control, which allows external control of the display mode.

2.DCP synchronize, which keeps several ServSwitch 4site Flex devices in the same display mode.

NOTE: The default setting is “off,” which prevents any external CONTROL.

Use a serial or USB cable to connect a control unit to the RS-232 port (RJ-45) on the ServSwitch 4site Flex back panel. To synchronize several devices, special Y cables are required.
