• Kramer VM-114H4C, Using the VM-114H4C 11 11 5.4 RS-232 and IR Control and Pass-through The VM-114H4C can be controlled via RS-232 and infrared. Depending on how the RS-232 and IR connections are configured dictates whether the device will respond to control signals or transparently pass them through to another receiver or transmitter. Three examples in Sections 5.4.2.1, 5.4.2.2 and 5.4.2.3 of various configurations illustrate this functionality. 5.4.1 RS-232 Control and Pass-through Using the VM-114H4C As shown in Figure 3, you can connect a PC (or other serial controller) directly to the VM-114H4C to control the VM-114H4C.

• Kramer VM-114H4C, KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY Using the VM-114H4C 12 When an IR sensor or emitter is connected to the IR Remote 3.5mm mini jack, the connection between the IR sensor on the front panel and the IR on the transmitter/receiver is broken so that any signal received by the IR sensor on the front panel remains local to the VM-114H4C and controls only the VM-114H4C. To control any device you need to use the appropriate IR remote controller, for example, the Kramer remote controller controls Kramer devices, the LCD remote controller controls the LCD display and so on, as shown in the following examples. The following examples illustrate just three of the poss
