Overview

3 Overview

The RC-7B / RC-7BE is a highly versatile controller interface panel for the

control of A/V equipment in any multimedia room, especially the control of

a projector or other display device, via RS-232 and/or IR emitter cable. The

RC-7B / RC-7BE is 12V DC fed. The RC-7B is a one-gang wall plate. The

RC-7BE is two-gang wall plate intended for the European market.

In particular, the RC-7B / RC-7BE features:

VOLUME Up and VOLUME Down buttons

ON, OFF, PC, DVD and VCR buttons, each of which can be

programmed to carry out up to 15 commands, in sequence, with one

press of a button

In addition, the RC-7B / RC-7BE includes:

Two IR ports

Two RS-232 serial ports for universal display

An RS-485 serial port

A 3.5mm CONFIG jack connector on the front panel for RS-232

configuration and control

An IR learner on the front panel for the customized control of external

sources, absorbing the IR commands from different remote transmitters

Control via the front panel buttons, and remotely, via RS-232

To achieve the best performance:

Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding

interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and

elevated noise- levels (often associated with low quality cables)

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position

the RC-7B / RC-7BE away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.

Warning – Use only the Kramer Electronics input power

wall adapter that is provided with this unit

Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall

before installing or removing device or servicing unit.

Figure 7 shows the RC-7BE built into a podium in an auditorium with an

overhead projector and a cabinet with a VCR and a DVD inside, all

controlled via the RC-7BE. The presenter’s laptop is located on the podium,

next to the RC-7BE. It is also controlled by the RC-7BE and is used for

presentations and slide shows.
