Wiring for RS-232 Control
SW2 and SW4 DVI Plus (RS-232 Connector)
For RS-232 control of a non-audio SW2 or SW4 DVI Plus, connect a male to female RS-232
cable between the 9-pin female D RS-232 connector of the switcher and the computer serial
port. The table below shows the pin assignments of the RS-232 connector.
Pin RS-232 Function Description
1 – No connection
2 Tx Transmit data
3 Rx Receive data
4 – No connection
5 Gnd Signal ground
6 – No connection
7 – No connection
8 – No connection
9 – No connection
Protocol for this port is 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity.
All Other Models (Remote/Auto-SW Connector)
On all models except the non-audio SW2 and SW4 DVI Plus, the 5-pole, 3.5 mm
Remote/Auto-SW captive screw connector is used for optional RS-232 communication and to
enable auto-input switching between inputs connected to the switcher.
Use a female 9-pin D-to-bare wire RS-232 cable or a universal control cable (UC50', UC100',
or UC200') to connect your computer or control system to the RS-232/Auto-SW connector.
1. Wire the unterminated end of the RS-232 cable to the provided 5-pole captive screw
plug as described below. Connect the transmit, receive, and ground wires of the cable to
the first three pins on the connector, starting at the left:
• Connect the transmit wire to pin 1, which plugs into the Tx (transmit) port.
• Connect the receive wire to pin 2, which plugs into the Rx (receive) port.
• Connect the ground wire to pin 3, which plugs into the
_
(ground) port.
2. Plug the 5-pole connector into the Remote/Auto-SW receptacle on the rear panel.
Figure 12 on the next page shows how to wire this shared connector for RS-232.
