2.3 Rear Panel
The programmable control panel has various ports in the rear panel, including
Lopping port, RS232 port, RS485 port, IR port, Relay port and Power port. Below is
the introduction:
①Power connector: 12VDC. Be sure that the “+” and “-” never be mixed or
wrong connection.
②Low-Voltage relay ports: set the relay on/off by software PS-WP.
③This port includes: RS232 (1)/IR2, IR1 and RS485.
RS232 (1)/IR2: share the same port, the detailed use depends on the setting
of PS-WP. When be used as RS232, it is unidirectional transmission, transmit
data but without receive.
IR1: for control other devices, it can be programmable by the PS-WP.
RS485: the RS485 can be programmed as different commands and control
the device with RS485 port. The command of RS485 is the same as RS232
(1).

④This port includes two parts:
One part is RS232 (2)/IR3, it can be used for control other devices or looping
output. RS232 (2) and IR3 share the same port, the detailed use depends on
the setting of PS-WP.
Other part is RS232 (3), it can be used for control other devices or looping
output, or connect with PC.
These two parts share the same grounding.

3.2 Connection of Programming and Looping
The programmable control panel can be connected to the computer for
programming, to default the functions of every button. It can be connected by USB
or RS232, working with the PS-WP software. It is shown as below:
Programming Connection
Several pieces programmable control panels can be also looped to be a system, for
control more devices. It is looped by the inter RS232 setting. Please check the demo
picture as below:

Several programmable control panels Looping connecting
After connect the programmable control panels as above, and then we should set
the ID of each programmable control panel by PS-WP. The ID number is from 01 to
99, and it also is the class of the programmable control panel in the loop, different
programmable control panels should set to different ID. After connections finish, we
can set the control modes by PS-WP. For detailed connecting, please check the
picture below:
Detailed looping connecting
Note: Up to 99 programmable control panels can be looped within one system.
However, to achieve normal interaction, loop less programmable control panels (10
tops) in the system.
