MANUAL REMOTE Connector
The MANUAL REMOTE connector provides a way to control the Model 8/10 PLUS switchers using Extron or third party remote control devices.
Extron Remote Control devices which are compatible with the Model 8/10 Switchers are the
MANUAL REMOTE connector pin assignments are shown in the table to the right. To select a different switcher input number through the remote connector, momentarily short the pin for the desired input number (#) to logic ground (pin 25). To force the switcher to select that input # continuously, leave the short to logic ground in place, this will override front panel input selection.
The Tally pins can be used for remote indication of the switcher's selected input. Tally #1 - #10 (pins 14 - 23) will indicate the switcher's selected input # with a logic low (0 volts), the Tally pins are normally at logic high (5 volts).
The schematics shown below may be used as a guide to design and build indicator circuits for the Tally pins. The +5 volt source on remote connector pin 13 is limited to 100mA, if a different voltage or a higher current is required, an external voltage source will be necessary.
