SMS 7000 CONNECTIONS
The CM 4000 can be connected to a Grass Valley SMS 7000 Signal Management System and router (see Figure 2−15). The
protocol setting is: 38400 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit.
The serial cable on the back of the SMS 7000 controller frame may be labeled RS−232, but it can and should function as
RS−422 if configured in software. The CM 4000 is connected to one of the DB25 or DB9 ports on the back of the SMS 7000
controller frame. Refer to the manual supplied with the SMS 7000 for instructions on setting the port up for RS−422 and set-
ting the serial parameters.
