Extron electronic DVS 510 SA Remote Configuration and Control

DVS 510 Series • Remote Configuration and Control 47

Remote Configuration and Control

The DVS 510 can be remotely controlled via a host computer or other device (such as

a control system) attached to the rear panel RS232 connector, the front panel RS-232

Config port, or the LAN port. You can configure and control the DVS by the Extron Simple

Instruction Set (SIS) of commands, by using the Extron Windows-based Signal Processing

Products Control Program (SPPCP), or by the internal HTML web pages (see the “HTML

Configuration and Control” section, beginning on page 85).

This section describes the serial and Ethernet connections through which the SIS commands

can be issued, and lists the commands that are available for configuring and controlling the

DVS 510 Series. It also provides instructions on obtaining and opening the control program.

Topics include:

• Serial Ports

• Ethernet Port

• Using SIS Commands

• Using the Signal Processing Products Control Program (SPPCP)

Serial Ports

The DVS supports RS-232 and RS-422 serial communication protocols and can operate

at 9600, 19200, 38400, or 115200 baud rates. (See “Edit Comm Settings menu” on

page 34 to configure this port using the front panel menus.)

The default protocol for the serial ports is 9600 baud, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow

control. (See o RS232 connector or Connecting to the RS-232 Config Port [Front

Panel] on page 11 for the pin assignments for these two ports.)

Ethernet Port

The RJ-45 connector on the rear panel can be connected to an Ethernet LAN or WAN to

enable control of the DVS via SIS commands or the Signal Processing Products Control

Program. Communication between the scaler and the controlling device can be via a utility

such as Extron DataViewer or HyperTerminal, or via Telnet (a TCP socket using port 23). The

Telnet port number can be changed, if necessary, via SIS. (For information on connecting via

Telnet, see “IP Addressing” on page 116.)

Ethernet Cable

The Ethernet cable must be properly terminated for your application as either a straight-

through cable or a crossover cable. (For pin assignments for these cables, see “n LAN

connector” on page 10.)
