Contact Closure Remote Control

The Remote connector also provides a way to select an input to the switcher using a remote contact closure device. Contact closure control uses pins on the Remote connector that are not used by the RS-232 interface. Figure 3-5 shows the contact closure pin assignments.

To select a different input number using a contact closure device, momentarily short the pin for the desired input number to logic ground (pin 5). To force one of the inputs to be always selected, leave the short to logic ground in place. The short overrides front panel input selections.
