2. Choose either the comm port that is connected to the MVX 128 A switcher’s RS-232/RS-422 port or Emulate.

NAlthough IP [LAN] is available for selection, the switcher does not have an Ethernet port. Do not select IP [LAN].

If you selected a comm port, check the baud rate displayed in the comm port selection window. If you need to change the baud rate, click on the Baud button and double-click on the desired baud rate.

Available rates are 9600, 19200, 38400, and 115200. The default is 9600.

NSee Selecting the RS-232/RS-422 protocol and baud rate in chapter 3, Operation on page 3-33, to identify the selected baud rate from the front panel.

Click OK and proceed to step 3.

If you selected Emulate, click OK and see Using emulation mode on page 5-10.
