CONTROL
Option 3: Control via professional control system
KD-MS4x4G/KD-MS8x8G allows control over serial interface for bi-directional communication.
Pin: 1 2 3 4 5 6
Connection Protocol:
›Baud Rate = 57,600 bits per second
›Data Bits = 8
›Stop Bits = 1
›Parity = Non
›Flow Control = None
›Carriage Return: Required at end of string
›Use pins 3, 4, and 5 for RS-232 communication.
›For TCP/IP control, the default IP address is 192.168.1.239, with port 23
›Most Key Digital matrix switches support a standard audio+video switching command.
KD-MS4x4G/KD-MS8x8G is also controllable by this command, so if you have previously integrated Key
Digital matrixes by third-party control systems you may have success using the same driver/module.
