1. Introduction

The RMC-185 is a cost effective physical controller designed specifically for control of the KMU-100 4K Multi-Camera Processor. The RMC-185 interfaces with the KMU-100 via an RS-422 interface.
The RMC-185 panel style design allows easy control of the KMU-100 with the hard keys giving the user quick access to main functions of the KMU-100. In addition, you can also use the joystick to move the selected frame view.
That’s Datavideo; sharing the value!

1.1 Features

• Remote control of up to eight selected frame views.
• Pan, Tilt and Zoom with speed control by joystick.
• Storing multiple presets for frame view settings.
• Full remote control of the KMU-100 via RS-422 connection.
• An LCD display showing setup menu options.
• Three Multiviewer modes (Preview, Motion and Quad)
• Compact design for easy installation

1.2 Device Setup

The RMC-185 works in pair with the KMU-100. First of all, connect the power to the RMC-185 through a power cable. After that, the RMC-185 (RJ-45) is connected to the KMU-100 (DSub) using an RJ-45-to-DSub cable. Finally, turn ON the RMC-185 device switch to start manipulating your KMU-100. Please see the system diagram below for the overall system setup.
Note: The communication protocol between the two devices is RS-422.
