Getting Started

2 Getting Started

We recommend that you:

Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging

materials for possible future shipment

Review the contents of this user manual

Use Kramer high performance high resolution cables

Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com/support/product_downloads.asp

to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check if

firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).

2.1 Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in

signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often

associated with low quality cables)

Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely

influence signal quality

Position your Kramer FC-26 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be

connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

2.2 Safety Instructions

Caution:

There are no operator serviceable parts inside the unit

Warning:

Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall

adapter that is provided with the unit.

Warning:

Disconnect the power and unplug the unit from the wall

before installing

Overview

3 Overview

The FC-26 is high-performance, easy-to-use, bidirectional hardware and software

interface system for controlling RS-232 and IR-controllable devices via an Ethernet

LAN.

These Ethernet to serial controllers bridge the gap between Ethernet infrastructures

and serial communication devices by offering bidirectional Ethernet to serial and IR

conversion. All setup and maintenance of the devices is done from built-in Web

pages which are accessible using any common Web browser.

The FC-26 can receive K-Touch Ethernet-based per-IR port or per-serial port

commands and convert them into IR/serial signals on the requested IR/serial port.

Responses are sent back to all Ethernet connected panels.

In particular, the FC-26:

Offers network connectivity that lets you connect a Kramer (or other) device via

its RS-232 port to an Ethernet LAN

Works in conjunction with K-Touch 3 for remote control of devices over an

Ethernet LAN via IR or serial connections, (see Figure 1)

Allows you to control up to two RS-232 devices via Ethernet from a PC, tablet,

smartphone, and so on

Allows you to control a device from multiple Ethernet points (PCs or remote

controllers), via a LAN or the Internet

Has IR learning capabilities

Provides IR ports for device control via IR blasters/emitters

Includes Windows®-based Virtual Port software for setting up virtual ports on a

Supports static or dynamic (DHCP) IP addressing

Can act as a PoE receiver

Has a USB port for upgrading the firmware

Supports remote firmware upgrades via a LAN
