Overview
The VK1200 / VK2200 Control Box is an Ethernet-based controller device that
connects and integrates a spate of devices to provide single-access
configuration and convenient remote control for a room setting, such as
boardrooms and lecture halls.
It offers multiple bidirectional serial ports, relays, IR/serial ports, digital I/O,
and 12 V DC power output ports, as well as a dedicated control LAN port,
separate from the corporate LAN, for IP device management within a secure
subnetwork. In addition, it also supports a range of ATEN Expansion Boxes in
providing versatile scalability.
Once successfully connected, users will be able to configure all in-room
devices using the ATEN Configurator software — VK6000, and allow remote
control using ATEN Touch Panel, ATEN Keypads, and Android / iOS /
Windows mobile devices via the ATEN Control System app.
For a centralized management, the VK1200 / VK2200 can be connected to
ATEN Unizon, a global AV management platform software, allowing users to
control and monitor multiple ATEN Ethernet-based solutions across different
locations, including but not limited to ATEN Control Boxes, at the same time.

Before You Start
The following is a checklist of the items to prepare / consider before you start:
Go through the numbers and types of ports available, and see if it satisfies
all of the devices you want to be controlled within your room setting.
Note: For more control port interfaces, up to 8 ATEN Expansion boxes per
expander model can be connected to the VK1200 / VK2200. See Compat-
ible Products on the product web page for details.
Consider the recommended maximum length of each interface cable, as
listed below, and choose an appropriate installation location for the
VK1200 / VK2200.
Note: The maximum allowed length of each interface cable may vary de-
pending on the cable quality.
