APPENDIX F: Pollable Serial Mode

Appendix E. Pollable Serial Mode 

 

The SAP pollable serial daisychainable receivers with video, audio and RS232 serial 
feature the ability to open a bi-directional session between a pollable transmitter and a 
single pollable receiver in a daisychain installation.  

 

Each pollable receiver must have a unique address set first. Once this has been done, 
a special command (discussed below) is sent to the transmitter to specify the receiver 
to open a session with. Once this has been done, serial communication can occur 
between the RS232 source and display. The transmitter is always addressed 0. 
Reference the 

SAP II, SAP Communication Protocol User Manual 

on configuration and 

usage of the SAP series products. 
 

 

If an address of 0 is sent, the RS232 commands will be broadcast to all receivers.  
 
The following details the installation and setup procedure. 

 

To set the receiver address requires that each internal serial audio daughterboard  in 
the receiver have a unique address set. This is done via an 8 position dipswitch. Use 
the following chart to determine the proper switch addresses. All receivers must have a 
unique address. 

It is recommended to write the address on each receiver once this step 

has been completed

. It is also recommended to keep a list of receiver addresses and 

locations to make it easier to determine which receiver/display is desired to 
communicate with. 
 
1)

Remove the top cover assembly of the receiver 

2)

Locate the 8 position dipswitch on the internal daughterboard assembly and using 
the following chart, set the receiver address. 

 

 

 

3)

Replace cover assembly and install unit. 

4)

Reference the 

SAP II, SAP Communication Protocol User Manual 

on configuration 

and usage of the SAP series products.
