Control Connections
IR Control
The VIA!migo may be controlled by IR or RS-232. IR control is the simplest
connection and will provide all control options but WILL NOT provide feedback when used with Olé Touchpads. Feedback, in the case of IR controlled
applications, occurs on a TV or VIA! Touch Panel dispaly.
Use a mono 3.5mm interconnect cable between an IR Out port from an ELAN
Multi-Room Controller or other IR device and the Remote In port on the
VIA!migo as shown in Figure 5.

RS-232 Control
RS-232 serial control provides reliable control from VIA! Touch Panels and
Olé Touchpads. In addition to control capabilities, RS-232 control allows
Olé Touchpads to display feedback (Title, Track, etc.). An ELAN SS1 System
Station is required to display feedback on Olé Touchpads. Use the included
RJ-45 to DB-9 Adaptor when connecting the VIA!migo to the SS1.
Note: Maximum distance between the VIA!migo and an SS1 is 300'.
