Instruction Manual

CRESTRON
Two side-by-side buttons, RS-232 ON and RS-232 OFF, are located just above the
RETURN button at the bottom of the Interface Menu. RS-232 is just for external
control applications. Panel loading is always available; RS-232 does not have to be
on.
If the touchpanel is utilized in a system without a Cresnet system, ensure that the
RS-232 ON button is selected. Additional RS-232 parameters must be set with the
RS-232 Menu since alternative parameters may be required for successful transfers
to a PC. Text within the selected button changes color from black to light gray. RS-
232 ON is the default setting.
Select the RETURN button, located at the bottom of the Interface Menu, after
interface parameters have been set.
RS-232 Menu (Lectern-Mount Configurations Only)
Select the RS-232 button, located at the top of the second column of the Setup Menu,
to change the touchpanel display to the RS-232 Menu, shown below. The RS-232
Menu specifies four parameters required for the touchpanel to use its RS-232 serial
port. Ten baud rate buttons, labeled 110, 150, 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600,
19200, and 38400, are available for selection. Also select seven or eight data bits;
none, odd, or even parity; one or two stop bits.
RS-232 Menu
RTS/CTS handshaking is supported by the Series 3200 touchpanels. If hardware
handshaking is desired, select the RTS/CTS button. If no hardware handshaking is
needed, select the Off button. Selections for all RS-232 parameters are indicated
with light gray text. The parameters are factory set to 38.4 Kbd, eight data bits, no
parity bits, and one stop bit. Handware handshaking is factory set to Off. If
necessary, refer to “Appendix: RS-232 Protocol” on page 21.
Select the Save and Return button, located at the bottom of the RS-232 Menu, after
RS-232 parameters have been set.
Sound Menu
The SOUND button, located at the top right corner of the Setup Menu, is used to
display the Sound Menu, shown on the next page. Use this screen to activate audible
key clicks. This feature is a useful feedback tool. Confirmation of a button press on a
touchpanel is acknowledged by an audible click assuming this feature is enabled. To
enable this feature, verify that the KEYCLICK ON button is active (light gray text).
An active KEYCLICK OFF button disables the feature. Volume of the audible
click is controlled with the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons. The unit
is factory set with the sound on.
