2. Control Connections & Settings
Control Connections - IR
There are two IR pathways into the V883 - the 3.5mm IR IN port on the rear and the IR Receiver on the front. The IR OUT port passes out any IR signal that is sent to the V883’s rear IR IN port or the front IR Receiver.
IR IN Port
Most ELAN multi-room applications will utilize the rear IR IN port for IR control. Use a 3.5mm mono interconnect cable to connect between an IR OUT port (typically an ‘ALL’ port) of an ELAN multi-room controller and the IR IN port of the V883. In this confi guration, any IR signal sent from any zone of the multi-room system will be sent to the V883.

IR Receiver
Use the built-in IR Receiver located on the front of the unit when utilizing hand-held IR remotes, IR distribution systems, or when it is otherwise not possible to connect to the IR IN port. IR commands can be sent from a distance using a hand-held IR remote or IR “blaster”. Use a standard IR mini-emitter placed directly over the V883’s IR receiver when used in conjunction with most IR distribution networks.

Control Connections - VIA!NET
Use the VIA!NET ports when controlling the V883 with ELAN VIA! Touch Panels, VIA!SC-4 Serial Controller, VIA!2-SS1 System Station and other VIA!NET devices. Use of this method ensures highly reliable control signal integrity and removes the possibility of IR signal “collision” whereby simultaneous IR commands cancel each other. The VIA!NET ports on the V883 can be daisy-chained between chassis and other VIA!NET devices.
Use an ELAN C4545 RJ-45 to RJ-45 interconnect cable to make all VIA!NET con­nections. If the cable assembly is to be custom made, refer to the pin-out diagram below.

3. Video Connections
Wiring
Use high-quality component video cables to make connections between sources and the V883’s inputs. Sources will typically be located near the V883 at the head-end of the system. Component video outputs will typically be sent via RG-6 coaxial cable from the head-end to televisions and/or monitors located throughout the house. Use F-to-RCA adaptors to connect high quality component video cables to each TV or monitor, as shown below. Maximum coaxial wire run is 300 feet.

ELAN Multi-Room Controller-Based Systems
There are many possible applications when using the V883 in ELAN Multi-Room Controller-based systems. This section shows basic concepts that can be combined or arranged according to the needs of the exact system being installed.
V883/System6
When utilizing a System6 Integrated Multi-Room Controller (S6), the V883 can be an economical and versatile video switching solution. In this application, the S6 routes analog audio and performs IR distribution and amplification functions. The V883 routes component video (DVD and HDTV) sources to TVs with component video inputs and routes composite video (VIA!Quad w/ cameras) to TVs without component video inputs and to VIA! Touch Panels. The system below shares sources between the S6 and a local Home Theater. A local A/V receiver in the Home Theater is used to play digital audio from the shared DVD and HDTV sources.
Important Note: When using the V883 as a composite video switcher, please be aware that the same input type (Y, PB, or PR) must be chosen and consistently used for each input (source) and each output (TV/VIA!). In the example below, the Y inputs/outputs have been chosen for composite video.

V883/System12
This application shows a System12 Multi-Room A/V Controller (S12) performing audio distribution functions as well as composite video switching. A V883 is used to dis­tribute component video. Although the S12 has component video capabilities, the use of the V883 frees up inputs and outputs so that more composite video sources may be used and more composite video outputs can be sent to more VIA!s.

ELAN Multi-Room Controller Multi-Chassis System
Multiple V883s used in ELAN Multi-Room Controller-based systems are configured identically to those used in stand-alone systems. This application shows four V883s linked together to form an 8 x 32 composite video matrix. Note the use of RCA ‘Y’ cables to split each source’s signal to each input of the V883’s. Set the 75 OHM INPUT TERM jumpers as shown for each unit in order to retain signal integrity. Verify that the UNIT ID DIP switches are correctly set for each unit to ensure proper switching.

5. Programming
Use VIA!®TOOLS setup software to assign commands to keypads and VIA! Touch Panels. When programming ELAN user interfaces, VIA!TOOLS will automatically configure the video switching commands. Please consult VIA!TOOLS software and the Help file for specific programming steps and full IR, VIA!NET, and RS-232 code sets.
ELAN HOME SYSTEMS
Control Methods
There are three methods of controlling the V883:
• IR
• VIA!NET
• RS-232
Overall system configuration and design goals will determine which programming method should be used.
IR
Use IR commands when controlling the V883 with ELAN keypads or hand-held remote controls.
VIA!NET
Use VIA!NET commands when controlling the V883 with VIA! Touch Panels and VIA!NET devices like the VIA!SC-4 and VIA!2-SS1.
RS-232
Use RS-232 commands when controlling the V883 from third-party RS-232 controllers or when using a computer to test/verify RS-232 functionality.
V883 RS-232 Protocol
The V883 uses the following communications settings:
• Baud-9.6k or 19.2k (Default)
• 8 Data Bits
• 1 Stop Bit
• No Parity
• Flow Control-None
Command Structure
• Prefix: Must be present for every command string (Required)
• Command: See list below for all commands (Required)
• Parameter: Decimal value of zone/source command
• Carriage Return: 0x0d or Decimal 13 (Required)
&V883, cmd, par <cr>
• &V883,KEY,xxx<CR> where xxx represents the decimal value of the IR command.
Unit responds with acknowledgement &V883,ACK,xxx<CR>
Unit will ignore all characters preceding the ‘&’. It will process and ACK the
command as soon as the carriage return has been received.
Note: The V883 requires at least 50ms between each serial command transmitted to it. However, if the &V883,ACK,xxx<CR> is received prior to 50ms, another command can be transmitted immediately.
