Connecting to the MLC 104/226, the System 5 IP, and Control Modules

The diagrams on the following pages illustrate how to connect the SCP to the MLC 104, MLC 226, control modules such as IRCMs or RCMs, and the System 5 IP system switcher.

NOTES: When an SCP 104 is connected to an

MLC 104 IP Plus, the SCP must have firmware version 1.01 or higher.

When an SCP 104/226 is connected to a System 5 IP switcher, the SCP must have firmware version 1.01 or higher loaded, and the switcher must have firmware version 2.01 or higher.

The diagrams in this section are guides; the SCPs, control modules, and IR Link can be daisy-chained in other combinations as well.
