INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
CONNECT-X MP6
EXTENSION DEVICE
INSTALLATION AND SET UP GUIDE
• The Connect-X MP6 is an extension device that provides serial, IR, GPIO ports, as
well as LAN control.
• The device may be installed in various locations using the built-in mounting system
that allows the device to be securely fastened on or under desktops, on walls,
equipment racks, or tied to cables, etc.
• PoE powered: use an IEEE 802.3 - compliant PoE power supply of switch. PoE
injector is not included.

INSTALLATION
Install on a at surface using the screw hole mounts. These allow for the device to
be mounted in a varity of locations such as under a table or on a wall.
1. Determine the location where the device will be located and verify the surface
is at enough for the device to be mounted.
2. Install the device in the desired location with the provided hardware.
OPTION 1
Install in a location without a at surface by using zip ties in the guide slots. These
allow for the device to be secured to equipment racks, cables, cords, or in places
where screws would not be an option.
1. Determine the location where the device will be located.
2. Thread a zip tie through a guide slot and keep the device against the object
that it will be secured to.

INSTALLATION
3. Loop the pointed end of the zip tie around what the device will be secured to
and then back through the guide slot.
4. Insert the the pointed end of the zip tie into the locking mechanism until it
clicks. Keeping the ties loose enough to adjust the postion of the device.
5. Repeat this process for the other guide slot.
6. Adjust the location of the device as needed before tightening the zip ties
enough to secure the device in place.

CONNECTION CONFIGURATIONS
Bidirectional RS-232 communications example.
Ground to Pin 5
Tx-1 to Pin 3
Rx-1 to Pin 2
CONNECTIONS
The TX and RX termials can be congured as either RS-232 or IR emitter ports using
the Biamp Project Designer software.
RS-232 / IR TERMINALS
One-Way Communicatons: The TX-3 and TX-2 are unidriectional
transmit terminals.
Two-Way Communications: The TX-1 and RX-1 terminals make up a bidirectional
transmit and receive terminal. This can be connected to devices requiring a reply
function such as projectors.

Inputs:
• When used as inputs, the applied voltage must be below 1 VDC to be accepted as
LOW, and above 4 VDC (but below 24 VDC) to be accepted as HIGH.
• The inputs are default HIGH and must be connected to a ground to change state.
Potential: These ports are not potential-free. External relays may be needed to prevent
ground loops depending on the application.
Outputs:
• When used as outputs, the I/O ports are active low.
• When activeted, the I/O ports are tied to GND through a FET transistor. Also known
as an open drain or collector function.
• Each I/O can draw up to 24DC/500mA.
CONNECTIONS
INPUT / OUTPUT PORTS (I/O)
The controller has 3 general ports that are each congured as either output or input.
Each of these I/O ports is available for connection to devices such as:
• A PIR movement sensor
• A keyboard lock
• Relays
• Other compatible uses

Installation & Set Up Guide
CONNECTIONS
ETHERNET PORT (LAN)
The RJ-45 Network (LAN) connector with PoE functionality is used for:
• Power over Ethernet
• Connecting to a host controller
• Configuring and controlling third-party devices over a network
Port LED indicators: The yellow LED indicates the link status and the green LED indicates
the link speed.
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
This port provides power over Ethernet to the controller. Powering the controller requires
one of the following:
• A PoE-enabled switch compliant with an IEEE 802.3
• A PoE power injector compliant with IEEE 802.3
