CM6700 SWITCHER
To connect a CM6700 switcher directly to the VMX300(-E), complete the following steps:
1. Using a modified null modem cable (user-supplied), plug one end into the DB9 COM 1 port on the VMX300(-E). The modified null modem
cable should be cut at one end, so that you can connect the wires directly to the CM6700 screw terminals.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the COM 2 screw terminal connector on the CM6700 switcher. Note the pin assignments on the
wiring.
3. Remove the cover from the CM6700 and set the SW5 DIP switch to RS-232 mode. Replace the cover when done.

4. After installing system hardware, complete the following configuration steps:
a. Add the Pelco ASCII driver and the switcher to the VMX300(-E) server configuration, and select Direct Serial as the connection type
(refer to the VMX300(-E) Server Configuration Manual for instructions).
b. Change the CM6700 COM port settings to match the VMX300(-E) COM port: ASCII, RS-232, 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop
bit (refer to the CM6700 Installation/Operation manual for instructions).
