The MVX switcher can support remote control via either the rear panel Remote
RS-232/RS-422 Remote port or the front panel Configuration port.
Remote RS-232/RS-422 port — The port can be configured for either the
RS-232 or RS-422 serial communication protocol and operate at the 9600,
19200, 38400, or 115200 baud rate. See “Selecting the rear panel Remote port
protocol and baud rate” in chapter 3, “Operation”, to configure the rear panel
port from the front panel.
Configuration port — The port supports RS-232 serial communication
protocol only. The port can operate at the 9600, 19200, 38400, or 115200 baud
rate, but Extron recommends leaving this port at the 9600 baud rate. See the
Serial port configuration commands on page 4-11 to configure either port using
an SIS command.
Using the Matrix Switcher Control software
Many items found in the Matrix Switcher Control Program are also accessible
via front panel controls (see chapter 3, ”Operation”) and under SIS control (see
chapter 4, “Programmer’s Guide”). The Matrix Switcher+ Help Program provides
information on settings and on how to use the control program itself.
