2.2.11 Remote Control
J5 (DB-9 Female on backpanel) allows for optional remote control (RC3000CRC) of the RC3000. The
RC3000 may be configured to communicate either by the RS-232 or the RS-422 / RS-485 standards.
The RC3000 is shipped from the factory configured for RS-422/RS-485 operation.
Original RC3000s
To configure the RC3000 for RS-422 or RS-485, connect the remote control ribbon cable inside the
RC3000 to connector J10 on the feature board. Jumper J12 on the feature board must be placed in the
RS-422 position.
To configure the RC3000 for RS-232, connect the remote control ribbon cable inside the RC3000 to
connector J11 on the feature board. Jumper J12 on the feature board must be placed in the RS-232
position.
Second Generation RC3000s
To configure the RC3000 for RS-422 or RS-485, set the J12 jumper on the analog board to the -422
position and set jumpers X1 through X5 to the -422 position.
To configure the RC3000 for RS-232, set the J12 jumper on the analog board to the -232 position and set
jumpers X1 through X5 to the -232 position.
Newer RC3000s also allow for the remote control to interface with an optional internal card hosting a web
page. To configure the RC3000 for this, set the J12 jumper to the "RABBIT" position.
