Information flows both ways through the IPL T SF24 and SFI244
interfaces, but control only goes from the LAN connection to the
serial ports. See figure 2-10.
Figure 2-10 — Control / Information flow
Front panel indicators
The front panel of the IPL T SF24 and SFI244 interfaces has
several indicator LEDs which show the current status of

Operation
Connect power cords and turn on the display output devices
(projectors, monitors, VCRs), control devices (switchers, scalers,
distribution amplifiers), interface, and input devices (PC,
laptop, network equipment).
Check indicator LEDs on the PC/laptop, on the interface, and
on the network hub/router, etc., to ensure that all devices are
plugged in and communicating. The IPL T interface is now
ready to be configured (see chapter 3, Connection and
Configuration).
If connection or communication problems occur, see
Troubleshooting in chapter 4. If the troubleshooting tips do not
help, check with your local network administrator, or call the
Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline.
