Contents · i Crestron QM-RMCRX-BA QuickMediaTM Receiver/Processor QuickMediaTM Receiver/Processor: QM-RMCRX-BA Introduction Features and Functions The QM-RMCRX-BA combines a Crestron® 2-Series Ethernet-based control system with a QuickMediaTM input (receiver) and Cresnet® master port. [. . . ] High/1 (level sensitive) = Activate RTS pin Low/0 = Release RTS pin Indicates that the CTS (Clear to Send) pin on the COM port has been activated. If this signal is used, then the "Hardware Handshaking" option must be set to "None" in the Device Settings. Normally this signal would not be used (If RTS/CTS is selected in the "Hardware Handshaking" options, this signal will not be driven). High/1 = CTS pin activated Low/0 = CTS pin released Optional digital input <rts> Optional digital output <cts> Continued on the following page 44 · QuickMediaTM Receiver/Processor: QM-RMCRX-BA Operations Guide - DOC. 6332 Crestron QM-RMCRX-BA QuickMediaTM Receiver/Processor COM Port Signals (continued) SIGNAL TYPE AND NAME Digital input <RESERVED> Optional digital input <dtr> DESCRIPTION Not implemented - reserved for future. Activates the DTR (Data Terminal Ready) pin on the COM port for as long as the input is high. High/1 (level sensitive) = Activate DTR pin Low/0 = Release DTR pin Indicates that the DSR (Data Set Ready) pin on the COM port has been activated. High/1 = DSR pin activated Low/0 = DSR pin released Defines a string literal that will be transmitted out of the COM port. For example, if a protocol requires that all strings to and from a device have a carriage return/linefeed, then <delimiter> can be "\x0D\x0A". The ring indicator tells the software that a remote device is calling. Optional digital output <dsr> Parameters <str1> <str2> Optional parameter <delimiter> Digital output <Carrier Detect> Digital output <Ring In> Slot 4: C2QENET-1: C2ZQ-Ethernet The C2QENET-1 built-in network interface card provides one LAN port with an RJ-45 connector for connecting the QM-RMCRX-BA to the Ethernet network. No symbol is shown, as no detail is required. Slot 5: Cresnet: C2Net-Device The C2Net-Device slot enables the QM-RMCRX-BA to control up to 252 Cresnet devices. Each Cresnet device is assigned a unique identifier called a Net ID, which is a hexadecimal value ranging from 03 to FE. To view the list of supported devices, expand the control system in the bottom pane of System Views and double-click the C2Net-Device slot, the desired Net ID, or right-click and select Add Item from the submenu. Alternatively, you can drag the device from the Cresnet Control Modules folder onto the Net ID. Supported devices include network control modules, lighting modules and a variety of Crestron wired touchpanels. In Program Manager, the C2Net-Device symbol contains no signals; to program a controlled Cresnet device, expand C2Net-Device in Program View. 6332 QuickMediaTM Receiver/Processor: QM-RMCRX-BA · 45 QuickMediaTM Receiver/Processor Slot 6: C2I-RXBA-VIDEO Crestron QM-RMCRX-BA The C2I-RXBA-VIDEO module is built into slot 06 of the QM-RMCRX-BA. The QM-RMCRX-BA provides one QM input, labeled QM, which receives composite video, S-video and RGB video as well as digital audio from a QuickMedia transmitter such as the QM-WMC or QM FlipTop box. The QM-RMCRX-BA provides the following video outputs: · · · One BNC output labeled VIDEO for composite video. One RGB output labeled RGBHV for computer video. The C2I-RXBA-VIDEO module can route any video source to the corresponding output for transmission to the display device. The QM-RMCRX-BA supports up to 254 skew presets, where a skew preset consists of three RGB skew values together with peaking and boost. Each skew preset applies to the cable connection between the QM-RMCRX-BA and a specific QM transmitter.
