Additional Connections to
the Primary DHD
Controller (Optional)
The Primary DHD Controller provides the following interfaces to external equipment that
allow it to control or be controlled by that equipment:
• An RS-232 interface to a PC or control/automation system;
• Three (3), 12-volt trigger outputs;
• An infrared (IR) repeater input;
• An Ethernet network interface for firmware updates and maintenance notifications.
The following sections describe how to make these interface connections. For more
information about using these connections, refer to Network on page 88 and External
Control on page 101.
RS-232 Controller Connection: Use a straight-through, 9-pin RS-232 cable to connect
a PC or control/automation system (if present) to the RS-232 port on the Primary DHD
Controller; see Figure 3-16.
