Control using the RS-232 port

Controlling the Multivideo DP via RS-232 requires an RS-232 card installed on your computer or a USB to RS-

232 adapter. Below are instructions on how to create an RS-232 connection between a PC and the Multivideo

DP switch

Use a terminal client software to connect the host PC or notebook to the switch. Make sure to use

communication settings 9600 bps, N, 8, 1 No flow control.

Check the device and your PC to determine if you need a male to male or a male to female cable and how long

it needs to be. The Multivideo DP requires a straight through cable. You can use a Null Modem Adapter to

convert a crossed cable to a straight through cable. Examples of crossed and straight thorough cable pin-outs

are shown below. The standard maximum length for an RS-232 cable is 50 feet (15 meters).

Figure 9. Examples of 9 pin RS-232 Straight Through and Crossed Cables

Establish a connection to the Multivideo DP switch

1. Connect an RS-232 cable to the RS-232 connector on the PC.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the RS-232 port of the Multivideo DP.

3. On Windows, use the Windows Control Panel / Device Manager to identify the COM port number. See

instructions and Figure 10. below.

4. Power on the device.
