1.3.1. MTX3 and MTX5-D
MTX3 and MTX5-D can be controlled from an external controller through a NETWORK and RS-232C connector.
Two remote controllers can connect simultaneously via two available ports.
The rst controller is xed to using the NETWORK connector while the second controller can use the NETWORK or RS-232C
connector.
The procedure to congure the second control port of MTX3 and MTX5-D is shown below, this is found in MTX Editor - System
Menu- > Remote control.
(1)
(2) (3)
(1) Select an MTX within the MTX system.
(2) Select NETWORK connector or RS-232C for Remote Control 2.
(3) Select 38400 or 115200 (if RS-232C is selected).
After selecting all the parameters, click OK to complete the procedure.
* In the case of the MTX5-D NETWORK remote control connection, either network connector (Primary or Secondary) can be
used when DANTE Daisy Chain mode is selected.
If using DANTE Redundant mode, only the Primary network connection and/or RS-232C connection can be used for remote
control.
1.3.2. XMV, EXi8 and EXo8
XMV, EXi8 and EXo8 can be controlled via an external device through a NETWORK connector.
Two remote controllers can connect simultaneously via two available ports.
As remote control of XMV, EXi8 and EXo8 is performed via the NETWORK connector only, there is no requirement to congure
the port using MTX Editor.
When XMV, Exi8 and EXo8 are connected and controlled from MTX3 or MTX5-D, only one remote controller can be used, as
one port is required for system control from MTX3 or MTX5-D.
