Selecting the rear panel Remote port protocol and baud rate

This procedure affects the rear panel Remote port only. The front panel Configuration (RS-232) port’s variables can be changed under serial port or Ethernet control only. See the Command/Response table for IP SIS commands, in chapter 4, “Programmer’s Guide”, to configure either port under SIS control.

The Remote port settings are protected when front panel lock mode 2 is selected. You can view the settings in lock mode 2, but not adjust them from the front panel.

The switcher can support either RS-232 or RS-422 serial communication protocol, and operate at 9600, 19200, 38400, and 115200 baud rates. The settings of these variables can be viewed and changed from the front panel.

View and configure the switcher’s serial communications settings as follows:

The flashing Control button indicates the baud rate as follows:

Enter — 9600

Preset — 19200

View — 38400

Esc — 115200

The flashing I/O button indicates the protocol as follows:

RGBHV/Video — RS-232 Audio — RS-422/RS-485

In this example, the port is set to RS-232 at 9600 baud.
