Technological glossary:
Addressable IR ports enable control of the same type of
devices in a rack independently (by the same extender).
Typically this is the case with multiple set-top boxes to
distribute content throughout the house. Every device is
asigned its own dedicated IR port. As a result the device will
only receive the IR codes that are intended for this device and
not for any other. Without addressable IR codes, every device
will always receive all sent-out IR codes.
Addressable IR ports
RS232, also known as serial communication, is a more secure
control mechanism than traditional IR control. The 4 serial
ports on the extender allow the control panel to control up to
4 different devices with a serial interface such as advanced
A/V Receivers, projectors or DVD players, or lighting control
systems.
RS232 serial interface
Relays are used typically to operate motorized equipment
such as projector screens, curtains, etc. that do not have any
other control interface. The extender has 4 contact closures
that the control panel can instruct to open or close. As a result,
4 motorized devices can be controlled separately.
Relay outputs
Input sensors detect if equipment is powered on. Optional
power, video or audio sensors will provide the necessary
voltage input to determine if the equipment is on or off. These
sensors need to be wired to the input sensor. The status of the
input sensor can be used in conditional macros to ensure that
the equipment is powered on or off when needed.
Input power sensors
The powerful IR-circuit is capable of transmitting virtually
any IR code. Where many remote control systems are limited
to 125 kHz, the Pronto extenders can send IR-frequencies to
up to 1 MHz.
Colored LED's provide information about the system, such as
ethernet or WiFi connections, busy status or execution of an
IR, RS232 or relays commands. Errors are also displayed,
helping the user to do troubleshooting if necessary.
Both DHCP and fixed IP configuration are supported. DHCP
requires less effort to configure while fixed IP offers the most
stable network.
