PN 15750 RS-232 GUIDE

INTRODUCTION

This Blackbird™ device can be controlled by a computer using an RS-232 serial connection

and by issuing commands using RS-232 control software.

CONNECTION

This device includes a 3-pin Euroblock Terminal. Use this terminal to construct an RS-232

cable, which can be used to connect your PC to the matrix to allow for matrix control. The

following images show how to create and connect an RS-232 cable. If your PC lacks a DB-9

serial port, you will need to use a USB to Serial adapter cable (available separately P/N

3726).

SOFTWARE

This device does not include either a built-in control system or custom RS-232 control

software. If you wish to control this device from your PC using an RS-232 connection, you

will need to use a third party RS-232 control software package, such as CommWatch.exe,

whose interface is depicted below.

Set the communications parameters to the following:

Baud Rate: 115200

Data Bits: 8

Stop Bits: 1

Parity Bits: None

TCP/IP Port: 8000

RS-232 COMMANDS

The following guidelines apply to the RS-232 control commands.

1. The brackets [and ]in the commands are for clarity purposes to make the variable

more obvious. Do not type these symbols when typing the commands.

2. Other than the brackets, type in all commands exactly as they appear, including any

spaces. These commands are case sensitive and require the trailing exclamation

point (!) as part of the command.

3. Disconnect all HDBaseT™ receivers from the matrix/transmitter prior to performing

any of the upgrade commands.
