Use UDP & TCP Client and RS232 to control Modular Matrix Switchers

Use UDP & TCP Client and RS232 to control Modular Matrix Switchers

The  modular matrix switcher series can support the UDP & TCP and Serial/COM port control, please see the steps in as below:

These steps work with the below product lines. 

These codes do not work on another matrix switch

UDP

Users will need to make sure the control PC and the matrix switch are in the same network.

  • The port number is 4000.
  • We recommend 2 software (TCP-UDP-RS232 Helper and hercules_3-2-8)
  • The default IP address of the matrix switcher LAN1: 192.168.0.80, LAN2: 192.168.1.80

TCP Client

  • The port number is 5000
  • We recommend 2 software(TCP-UDP-RS232 Helper and hercules_3-2-8).
  • The default IP address of the matrix switcher LAN1: 192.168.0.80, LAN2: 192.168.1.80

Serial/COM port control

We recommend 2 software (TCP-UDP-RS232 Helper and hercules_3-2-8). The default baud rates for the matrix switcher COM1: 115200 , COM2: 115200

  • Data bit: 8bit
  • Check Parity: NONE
  • Stop Bits: 1 bit

Users will need to check and ensure use the available COM ports on the PC through the Device manager on the PC:

After found the available COM port number, user can use the RS232 control software to control the matrix switcher by sending the RS232 codes:

Control Commands:

Control commandFunction description
1All.Switch input 1 to all the outputs
All1.Switch all the channels to be one to one. Eg.1->1,2->2,3->3……
1X2.Switch input 1 to output 2
1X2&3&4.Switch input 1 to output 2, 3, 4
