Order in which the buttons blink during data transfer
After each 17% of the data has been transferred, the next button in the order of
lights remains lit brightly. This continues until the transfer process is complete and
all buttons are permanently lit. By observing how many buttons are lit steadily,
you can see approximately how much data has been transferred.
The buttons on the MLC VC models blink in the same pattern as the standard
models.
Step 5
When data transfer is complete, do either of the following:
• If you are finished transferring data, return configuration switch #2 on the
receiving MLC to the Off position
. Reinitialize the receiving unit by
pressing any of its front panel buttons.
• If you want to repeat the transfer process to configure another MLC 52,
repeat steps 2 and 3 for the unit that will be configured.
Press any button
on the donor unit. The transfer process restarts.
Configuring using RS-232
The MLC 52 front panel contains a configuration port that can be used for
configuring the MLC with the Windows-based configuration software that is
included on the CD provided with your MLC. With this software, you can use
projector/display drivers to configure the MLC 52 and to access advanced
configuration options.
Both the IR and the RS models can be configured via the RS-232 configuration port
on the front panel, using the Windows-based configuration software.
In order for the RS models to control a projector/display device using RS-232
drivers, you must configure the MLC using the configuration software.
You can also use IR drivers to configure the IR or RS models via the
configuration software.
Use a 2.5 mm TRS to 9-pin D-sub connector cable to connect the MLC to your
computer via this 2.5 mm female connector. (This cable is an optional accessory
that can be ordered from Extron (part #70-335-01).
The protocol for this connector is 9600 bits per second, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no
parity.
