Step 5 — Completing the installation

1. Save the configuration by selecting Save CONFIGURATION as..., and name it appropriately.

2. Connect the MLC 206 to the projector for RS-232 projector control.

a. Disconnect the power from the MLC (and the optional MediaLink Switcher, if applicable) and from the projector.

b. Plug the 9-pin D connector of the RS-232 projector control cable (such as an Extron UC 50’ cable) into the projector RS-232 port. A cable adapter may be required.

c. Connect the other end of the projector control cable to the MLC Display/Source Control RS-232 port. Wiring depends on the projector. See the diagrams below and on page 8, and the pin assignments in the projector user manual. Also see the display driver setup document available from the download page of the Extron Web site.

NIn most cases only the transmit (Tx), receive (Rx) and ground connections will be needed. Wiring varies depending on the projector model.
