AdderLink AV200 pair
The AdderLink AV200 transmitter and receiver pair operate in a similar manner
to the AV100 series, with the addition of an RS232 serial port. The serial port
of the source PC is presented at the AV200 receiver for use by a remote device
such as a touch screen terminal. The AdderLink AV200 models are designed
primarily for single point to point operation although
they can provide further video/audio expansion via
transmitter cascade connections (the serial
connection is not expandable).

Module mixing
Most of the AdderLink AV modules can be mixed together in various
combinations quite freely. For instance, an AV104 transmitter can drive mixtures
of AV100 and AV101 receivers. Similarly, an AV100 transmitter can control
single or cascaded AV101 receivers. An AV100 receiver can also be cascaded
from an AV101 receiver, although the reverse is not true.
However, the AV200 pair differ from the other modules because they send serial
port signals across the CATx link and so MUST NOT be cross connected (via a
CATx link) with any other non-AV200 modules. The AV200 transmitter can be
used as part of a transmitter cascade with other AV transmitter types. However,
the serial port of an AV200 transmitter cannot itself be cascaded. Therefore, if
an AV200 transmitter is involved in a cascade, it should be placed as the primary
transmitter, connected directly to the source PC system.
