Controlling an External Device Via HDBT Ethernet Tunneling
Control any external device (for example, a connected display) using an Ethernet control
system connected to the transmitter wired to the HDBT 1/HDBT 2 input. RS-232 commands
are sent from the control system to the transmitter and tunneled via
VP-427X2
HDBT (for
example, HDBT 2) to the RS-232 device connected to
VP-427X2
.

RS-232 commands can be tunneled from the
VP-427X2
Ethernet port to the RS-232 port that
is connected to the external device.
To control an external device via Ethernet Tunneling to the RS-232 port:
1. Click
RS-232
on the Navigation List. The RS-232 page appears.
2.
Set “Use RS-232 Port for control of” drop-down box to
Ethernet Tunneling (HDBT2)
.

3. Set RS-232 Configuration parameters to enable communication with the display that is
connected to the acceptor (or any other device with an RS-232 port), see
