Kramer Electronics FC-10ETH - Manual (Page 21)

18 FC-10ETH - Controlling Machines via the Ethernet using the FC-10ETH
Unit (B) is configured to the Active mode.
6. Connect units (A) and (B) to your network or Ethernet router, as illustrated in
Figure 11 .
7. Connect up to two machines, that is, the RS-232:
 COM 1 port of the FC-10ETH (A) to the RS-232 port of your machine 1
(for example, a Kramer machine) via a null modem adapter
 COM 2 port of the FC-10ETH (A) to the RS-232 port of your machine 2
(for example, a Kramer machine) via a null modem adapter
(alternatively, you can connect the RS-485 port of unit (A) to the
RS-485 port of your Kramer machine).
To connect the RS-485 port, c onnect PIN A to the “A” (+) PIN and PIN B to the
“B” (–) PIN
8. Connect up to two serial controllers to unit (B):
 Connect the RS-485 terminal block of the serial controller (1) to the
RS-485 terminal block port on the FC-10ETH (B)
Alternatively, you can connect an RS-232 output terminal block of the serial
controller to the RS-232 COM 2 port of the FC-10ETH

Connect the RS-232 port of the serial controller (2) to the RS-232 COM
1 port on the FC-10ETH (B)
9. Connect the power on each of the devices as follows:

The Kramer machines

FC-10ETH (A)
Connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the adapter
to the mains electricity
 FC-10ETH (B)
Connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the adapter
to the mains electricity

The serial controllers
A connection is established after the user sends the first command
from the serial controller to the serial controlled device.
