3Serial/host port — Use this 3-pole captive screw connector to connect to your PC’s RS-232 port. Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands can then be issued from the PC to monitor and obtain information from the SCP. This port is also used for uploading firmware to the SCP, if necessary. Refer to chapter 3, Remote Communication, for further details.

The System 5 IP can support up to two SCPs. The panels must each have a unique address.

DIP switch 4 is used to enable the RS-232/host port of the SCP 150. Note: If the SCP is connected to the System 5IP, set switch 4 to the “off” position.

2CM/IR/SCP connectors — These two 5-pole captive screw connectors function in exactly the same way and can be used interchangeably. Connect one connector to a System 5 IP switcher and the other to a second SCP, an Extron control module (ACM, RCM, IRCM), or an Extron IR Link infrared signal repeater.

Two SCPs, up to four control modules, and one IR Link can be daisy-chained using these connectors. The maximum distance between the System 5 IP and a connected device is 200' (61 m).

The switcher provides 12 VDC power to the SCP and any daisy- chained control devices via these connectors, so no additional power supply is required.

Wire the connectors as shown in the illustration on the next page. The illustration is a guide; the SCPs, control modules, and IR Link can be daisy-chained in combinations other than the one shown.
