Page 8 RS2321X8 Serial Router
Using the RS2321X8 Router as a stand-alone unit can be used to expand the Xantech Model IRS232A to control up
to 8 Serial Devices or anytime you want any single RS232 Device to communicate with up to 8 other Serial Devices
(or Vice-Versa).
CONFIGURING FOR STAND-ALONE OPERATION:
Note: The Xantech Model RC68+ Handheld Programmer is required for controlling the RS2321X8 Router in this
configuration.
1. Move the configuration jumper to the RS232 selection position located under the Configuration-Setup Access
Panel. See Figure 7.
2. Confirm the RC68+ Group Code dials are set to the desired Group Code setting (located in under the
Configuration-Setup Access Panel).
Note: Default Code Group is 90.
Note: Baud Rate setting is not used in this configuration. Setting is ignored in standalone operation.
3. Set the dials on the rear of the RC68+ Handheld Programmer to the same settings as noted in Step 2 above.
4. Place Overlay ‘C’ on the RC68+ Programmer.
5. Teach the 8 Router commands (buttons 1 through 8 on the RC68+ Programmer) to the IR Remote or IR Keypad
controller to be used with the system.
