AVC
• RS232/RS485 Serial Port
The serial port's protocol (RS232 or RS485), data rate and format settings (baud, parity,
stop bits, etc.) are configured using Designer.
In RS232 mode, the port operates in full duplex with the following pinout:
Receive
Transmit
Signal ground
In RS485 (and DMX In) mode, the port operates in half duplex with the following pinout:
Data +
Data -
Signal ground
The serial port is not isolated from the AVC’s power supply. If isolation is required, it must
either be provided by the connected device or a separate RS232 isolator should be used.
• Ethernet
A standard 10/100TX Ethernet connection may be made to the AVC.
• USB
The USB port may be used to connect the AVC to a PC to upload project data (excluding
audio/video content) and update the AVC’s internal operating software.
NOTE:
Ports and third party equipment can be damaged when plugging or
unplugging an energised system (hot-plugging). It is therefore advisable to
remove power before making or breaking port connections.
