Product Overview

DESCRIPTION

The CTL101 interface converts contact closures and infrared (IR) signals to RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 serial commands. The unit allows complete systems integration and system control via a single computer workstation, contact closure and / or infrared remote. The CTL101 can also be used to remotely control a VCR, DVD, INLINE unit or any other IR receiver equipped device by passing along IR remote signals.

PRODUCT FEATURES

• Three Command Sources - Commands can come directly from the host computer. Prepro-

grammed commands can be sent by using an IR remote control or via any of the 16 contact closure ports.

• Infrared Remote Control - provides one touch operation of programmed system functions

and allows the presenter to move freely around the room.

• Remote Operation - The CTL101 allows operators to connect a local IR emitter directly to

control equipment (that is IR receiver equipped) and transmit remote signals from over 1000 feet away.

• Serial Input and Output Ports - allow the CTL101 to pass along commands from a compu-

ter or other control system to the controlled equipment.

• On Screen Display Menus - are provided by the CTL101 for the control computer monitor.

• Easy Setup - A Terminal Emulation Program is the only software necessary to set up the

CTL101…no special software is required!

• Versatile Mounting Capability - The CTL101 can be placed / mounted in a variety of loca-

tions or fits neatly in a 1U rack space (when mounted in a standard 19" equipment rack).

• Optional Equipment:

CTL120-1 IR Remote Control - sends infrared commands to the CTL101. This hand-

held generic unit can be customized with labels to match specific installation requirements.

CTL120-2 IR Remote Control with Overlay - is the same remote with an overlay that

specifies which buttons control the IN1402 / IN1403 / IN1404 Video Scalers, IN3600 Series Switchers and IN31608 Matrix. A diagram outlining the location and function of each button can be found on pages 27 - 29. Complete operating / programming instructions are provided in the CTL120 Operations Manual.

CTL130 IR Emitter - acts as a signal transponder in that it allows operators to control

video equipment that may be out of the IR remote’s line-of-sight (i.e. rack-mounted equipment, devices located in another room, etc.).

CTL131DB / CTL131DW IR Sensor - is an IR sensor (housed in a double size A/V

connector module) that can be mounted in a remote location and relay control signals up to 1000 feet (available in black or white).

Installation

This section offers step-by-step instructions for installing the CTL101 Control Interface. Serial Port Wiring Diagrams are provided on pages 4 - 6, Application Diagrams are included on

pages 7 - 11, and a Front and Rear Panel Connectors and Controls Diagram can be found on page 13. All connectors and controls are located on the back of the unit.

Note: Installation of the CTL101 must only be carried out by qualified technicians. Read the instructions carefully before initiating the installation procedure. Make sure that there is no power connected to any of the units.

1.) Set the Dipswitches - as appropriate for your installation (if applicable). See pages 13 & 14

for more details.

2.) Place / Install the CTL101 Interface - at the desired location. Make sure that the IR sensor

window remains unobstructed.

Sunlight and direct reflections can sometimes cause the CTL101 IR sensor to activate inadvertently. Avoid placing the unit near bright light sources and / or areas where light reflection may affect the unit’s performance.

3.) For Rack-Mount Installations - Secure the CTL101 to the optional IN9080 rack mount

shelf using two (2) #6 - 32 x ¼" long screws (provided with the rack shelf). Two interfaces can be mounted side-by-side on a single rack shelf, or a single unit may be mounted along with an optional IN9088B blank plate. Together, the CTL101 and the IN9088B fit snugly in a 1U rack space.

Note: When attaching any INLINE unit to an INLINE rack mount shelf, the four (4) rubber feet

be removed from the bottom of the unit.

must

4.) Control Signal Connections - Make one or more control signal input / output connections as

appropriate for your installation:

 Connect the Computer or Control System Serial Port to the RS-232 / RS-422 /

RS-485 Serial Port Input (see Wiring Diagrams on page 4 thru 6 and Application Diagram A on page 7). The CTL101 is configured from the input port using a host computer in terminal emulation mode. See the Terminal Emulation Parameters Section on page 16 for more details on configuring the CTL101.

 Connect Serially Controlled Devices such as the IN1402 / IN1403 / IN1404 Video

Scaler, IN3600 Series Switcher or IN31608 Matrix to the RS-232 / RS-422 / RS-485 Serial Port Output (see Application Diagram A on page 7).

 For Contact Closure - connect all switches to the Contact Closure Input Ports. The

CTL101 has 16 isolated ports. See the Wiring Diagram on page 6 and Application Diagram C on page 9.

 For Applications Involving IR Controlled Products - connect the 2-pin captive screw

connector on the CTL130 IR Emitter to the CTL101 IR Out Port (see Application

Diagram D on page 10). The mouse type emitter attaches directly over the IR sensor of the device being controlled (when used to control a single unit) or can be mounted up to three feet away from the IR controlled devices when used to control multiple units.

Note: Emitters are to be used for local control of video equipment only (i.e. the video equipment and the CTL101 are in the same room).

Do not place the CTL101 in a location where the unit’s sensor window will detect the emitter signal, or in an area in which the signal could feed back into the unit. This condition is evident whenever a remote control command is issued and the remote light on the CTL101 remains "ON" even after the remote control button is released.

 For Remote Sensor Applications - Connect the CTL131DB / CTL131DW IR Remote

Sensor to the IR Sensor Input Port (see the Wiring Diagram on page 6 and Application Diagram D on page 10). The sensor can be mounted in a remote location and can relay signals to the CTL101 from up to 1000 feet away. Set the Sensor Mode button to the EXT position.

6.) Turn on - the computer, monitor, INLINE equipment and all other connected / controlled

devices.

7.) Apply power to the CTL101 - using the IN9230 power cord (included). The power LED on

the front of the unit will illuminate.

8.) Set-Up the Terminal Emulation Program. Users can access the Set-Up Menu by typing an

Asterisk (*). Complete details are provided on pages 16 - 23.

CTL101 Connectors and Controls

FRONT PANEL INDICATORS

The Remote and Power LED’s, and the IR receiver sensor are located on the front panel of the CTL101 (see the diagram on the following page). The Power LED will illuminate as soon as power is applied to the unit (the CTL101 has no ON/OFF switch). The Remote LED will illuminate whenever the interface receives an infrared signal from any IR remote control.

REAR PANEL CONNECTORS AND CONTROLS

All connectors and controls are located on the back of the unit, and the dipswitches are located on the bottom (see the Dipswitch Bank Tables on page 14).

Sensor Mode - is located on the left rear of the CTL101. This switch allows users to toggle between the unit’s internal IR sensor and the remote sensor. When the switch is in the INT position (down), the unit’s internal IR sensor is active (factory default). In the EXT position (up), the remote sensor (attached to the IR Sensor Input) is active.

IR Sensor Input - is a 4-pin captive screw terminal that connects directly to the CTL131DB / CTL131DW IR Remote Sensor (see Application Diagram D on page 10).

Contact Closure Ports - allow users to connect up to 16 devices with contact closure capability (see Application Diagram C on page 9).

RS-232 / RS-422 / RS-485 Serial Ports - The Output Port connects directly to the IN1402 / IN1403 / IN1404 Video Scaler, IN3600 Series Switcher or IN31608 Matrix or any other device

that accepts ASCII command strings. The Input Port connects directly to the computer workstation (see Application Diagram E on page 11).

IR Out - connects to the CTL130 IR Emitter via a 2-pin captive screw terminal (see Application Diagram D on page 10).

Fuse - 0.25A, time delay

Power - Universal power: 90 - 260 VAC, 47 - 63 Hz.

DIPSWITCH SETTINGS

On the bottom of the unit are two sets of dipswitches. Dipswitch Bank #1 is used to configure the serial ports to operate as an RS-232, or RS-422 / RS-485 physical interface. Dipswitch Bank #2 is used to isolate the contact closure ports and to configure the CTL101 to the default baud rate (9600). The factory default and specialized dipswitch settings are listed below:

Factory Default Settings: Dipswitch Bank #1:

Dipswitches 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6: All in "0" position Input Port Serial Mode: RS-232, no termination Output Port Serial Mode: RS-232, no termination

Dipswitch Bank #2:

Dipswitches 1, 2, 3, 4: 1 & 2 in "1" position

3 & 4 in "0" position

Contact Closure Port +5V Enable / Disable: Enabled (CTL101 provides power) Contact Closure Port Ground Enabled / Disabled: Enabled (CTL101 provides power)

DIPSWITCH BANK #1

Dipswitches 1, 2 and 3 control the Input Port, while 4, 5 and 6 control the Output Port. The Input / Output port will operate in RS-232 mode when all six dipswitches are in the "0" position (default), and in the RS-422 / RS-485 mode when all six dipswitches are in the "1" position. Switching pairs 2 & 3 and 5 & 6 will terminate the receive & transmit signals (respectively) at their ports.

DIPSWITCH BANK #2

In most cases, the contact closure ports use internal power from the CTL101 to sense changes (switches 1 & 2 are enabled). Users can completely isolate the remote contacts & wiring from the CTL101 by incorporating an external +5 volt power supply into the system (see the CTL101 Contact Closure Inputs Diagrams on page 6). In such applications, the internal power supply of the CTL101 must

When dipswitch #4 is in the "0" position (normal), the CTL101 automatically recalls the last configuration at power-up. Users can override the last settings and power-up the unit at factory default (9600 baud) by setting the switch to the "1" position (override). Note that the factory default also sets the Code End / Menu Call character to an asterisk (*).

be disconnected from the contact closure ports by disabling dipswitches 1 & 2.

Serial Port Set-Up

Preprogrammed command functions can be sent via the RS-232 / RS-422 / RS-485 serial output port. The CTL101 accepts serial commands from a control system, computer serial port or any other device capable of sending out serial ASCII commands at compatible baud rates, and relays the commands to the video equipment via the output port.

RS-232, RS-422 & RS-485 FORMATS

RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 formats are physical interface standards for serial communication. RS-232 is a full duplex operation that is typically used for short distances (up to 25’). RS-232 full duplex is the most common format and is limited to point-to-point applications (i.e. one computer, one piece of equipment). It is not designed for the simultaneous usage of several units or for sending serial information over very long cable lengths.

RS-422 and RS-485 formats can operate in both full and half duplex modes. In half duplex mode, only one unit can transmit information at any given time. Therefore, other units in the system will not respond until the initial transmission is concluded, and only one unit can respond at any given time. Half duplex mode is preferred for applications involving multiple devices and / or communication along fewer lines.

Note: Configuring the CTL101 for full or half duplex serial port operation is discussed in the Serial Port Control Section on pages 20 - 22.

Both RS-422 and RS-485 formats are designed for longer cable runs (actual lengths depend on cable grade, capacitance and a number of other variables). RS-485 is recommended when operating multiple units on a single line.

Reflections will sometimes occur when signals are sent over long cable runs (in the RS-422 / RS-485 mode). If a system incorporates several units and / or long control cable runs (while operating in full duplex mode), users can minimize reflections by setting dipswitches 2 & 3 and /or 5 & 6 to the "1" position (on the CTL101) and / or by engaging the termination resistors on the units located at opposite ends of the control cable (see diagram on page

5). For half duplex applications, engage switch 2 and / or 5 only.

COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL

1 start bit 1 stop bit 8 data bits no flow control (factory default setting) no parity check 9600 baud (factory default setting)

BAUD RATE SELECTION

The CTL101 has a factory default baud rate of 9600 bps and can communicate at baud rates from 1200 up to 115,200.

Note: The baud rate of the computer / A/V equipment must match the baud rate selected on the CTL101 (both the input and output port are set to the same baud rate).

If communication is lost, use the default switch on the bottom of the

CTL101 to reset the unit to factory default (9600 baud).

TERMINAL EMULATION PARAMETERS*

In order for the workstation to communicate with the CTL101, the terminal emulation program parameters must be set as follows:

Enabled: VT100 Terminal Emulation Echo Typed Characters Locally (sending) Wrap Lines that Exceed the Terminal Width (receiving)

Disabled:

* Software comes standard with the Windows™ Package. By default, the CTL101 is set up to accommodate most common terminal emulation programs. If

the unit is not communicating properly (i.e. unwanted text / m essages appear on the screen, double spacing occurs between menu choices, menu selections are followed by "error" responses, etc.), set the parameters to full duplex, no delimiter pause and no flow control, then check the emulation program set-up. Refer to the Serial Port Control Section on pages 20 - 22 for more details.

2 & 4. Switch Closure Code - will prompt users to select a switch number (1-16). Upon selection of the appropriate switch number, a message will appear indicating whether the switch code "Exists" or is "New". Users can now establish command strings for contact closure states, delete commands or display the current command string.

3 & 5. Switch Open Code - same as Switch Closure Code but for contact opening.

6. Exit - will always return users to the previous menu.

Contact closure command code strings can consist of (up to) 120 characters. A "Code Area is Full" message will appear after 120 characters have been entered.

Note: If Delimiter Pause is selected, the CTL101 will pause for a response end delimiter or a one second timeout between commands in a string, allowing the controlled equipment time to process each command. See the Delimiter Pause Section on pages 21-22 for more details.

- Backspaces will be ignored.

1. Clear All Codes in User Programmable Group - allows users to erase all group #3 command codes (provided that group #3 is enabled).

The CTL101 features three groups of command codes associated with IR signals. The first two groups are programmed at the factory with the serial command codes for INLINE video scalers, switchers and matrices, and cannot be changed. The third group allows users to program their own set of command strings. Once established, the unit will always power up in the last group selected.

Group #1 Command Codes - allow users to run a single INLINE unit by using the same delimiters (the same beginning and end [ ] brackets).

Group #2 Command Codes - have different delimiters allowing the simultaneous usage of several pieces of INLINE equipment (i.e. switcher { }, matrix ( ), scaler [ ]).

Group #3 Command Codes - are completely user programmable and are capable of directing several pieces of equipment simultaneously.

Note: When programming Group 3 for the first time or reprogramming the entire group, Group 3 must be enabled

, and all codes must be cleared before you begin.

2 & 3. Set / Change / Clear / Display a Code - will prompt users to push an IR remote control button to be associated with the operations. Another prompt will be displayed to verify the selection. If the IR signal is acceptable, the unit will indicate if it is a "New" or "Existing" command code.

Select one of the following:

1. Enter Code - If selected, two menus will be displayed: First Menu:

Enter Selection.

1. Remote Delay ON - for Single push

2. Remote Delay OFF - for Continuous push

Users are now prompted to program the CTL101 for either single push operation (which repeats the code no faster than 2 times per second), or for continuous operation (to repeat the code 20 times per second while the button is pushed). Single push modes are utilized for most operations, while continuous push modes are primarily used for such functions as volume regulation.

Second Menu:

Begin entering Command codes

- End with a Code End character (Default = asterisk *)

- Backspaces will be ignored.

After the remote has been configured, the unit will automatically begin the code entry mode (which is the same as contact closure entry). The group has the capacity to store up to 72 individual remote command strings.

2. Delete Code - deletes the previously programmed command.

3. Display Current - shows the current command status.

4. Select Current Code Group - allows users to enable one of the three groups.

REPROGRAMMING OR USING A DIFFERENT IR REMOTE CONTROL

The CTL120 IR Remote is pre-programmed at the factory and will readily support most applications. However, If operators wish to use their own remote, or if the CTL120 commands interfere / are incompatible with components in the system, the existing command codes may have to be changed. Recommended manufacturer’s command codes include Sony (default), JVC, Panasonic, Pioneer and RCA/Proscan. A complete list of manufacturers, components and code numbers is provided in the CTL120 Operation Manual.

Note: Reprogramming of the CTL120 Remote should only be done by qualified technicians.

When first setting up IR commands with a new manufacturer / component remote control code format, a "Signal Error" may result. If this happens, try again. If the "Signal Error" message occurs three times, then the manufacturer / component code is incompatible with the CTL101. Try another manufacturer’s code format (a list of available codes is provided in the back of the CTL120 Operations Manual).

SERIAL PORT CONTROL

If SERIAL PORT is selected in the main menu, type "3" followed by ENTER. The next series of menus will look like this:

Select Input Port option.

1. Baud Rate.

2. Flow Control.

3. Full or Half Duplex ports.

4. Exit.

Select "1".

Select Baud Rate.

1. 1,200

2. 2,400

8. 115,200

9. Display current.

10. Exit.

1. Baud Rate - allows users to change the baud rate. The new setting will become the default baud rate. The terminal computer baud rate must now be changed to communicate with (match) the CTL101.

Note: Change the A/V equipment baud rates first baud rate last

Select "2".

4. Exit.

, the CTL101 baud rate second, and the computer

2. Flow Control - The Input Serial Port (host computer) can receive XON / XOFF flow control from the CTL101. This is beneficial when the host computer is controlling the video equipment simultaneously with a contact closure and / or IR signal.

If a contact change or an IR signal is sensed, the CTL101 will send an XOFF command to the computer (once a delimiter is received from the computer going to the equipment, or a one second timeout). This allows the computer to stop transmitting command messages without overflowing the 32 byte FIFO in the CTL101 receive buffer. The CTL101 will trap the response message from the video equipment in response to the last command from the host computer. At this time the CTL101 will start sending its programmed command string to the video equipment. After the CTL101 has sent its command string, an XON will be sent to the host computer indicating it can resume communication with the video equipment. At this time, the trapped response from the last host command will be sent to the host computer to verify that the last command was processed.

Note: This feature must be used with the delimiter pause established, otherwise the CTL101 has no way of knowing when the host computer has ended a command and the video equipment has ended its response.

Select "3".

Select Full or Half duplex ports.

1. Both ports Full Duplex (Default).

2. Input port Full Duplex & Output port Half Duplex.

3. Input port Half Duplex & Output port Full Duplex.

4. Both ports Half Duplex.

5. Display current.

6. Exit.

3. Full or Half Duplex Ports - For RS-232 operation, full duplex communication is selected. In RS422 / RS-485, either full or half duplex communication can be selected.

In half duplex mode and computer control, the driver turns on as each character is transmitted, and the character is sent without any flow control provided by the CTL101. To prevent contention, the controlled equipment and the host computer system must provide some means of flow control. Typically, the host computer would send a command, shut its driver off, and wait for a response from the controlled equipment before sending the next command. The CTL101 acts as a relay unit between the computer and controlled equipment.

When the CTL101 sends commands in half duplex mode for IR remote control or contact switches, it automatically activates its driver for each command character transmitted. The CTL101 uses the end delimiter responses to determine when it can send the next command in a string. If no end delimiters are detected within one second, it will automatically send the next command.

DELIMITER PAUSE

If DELIMITER PAUSE is selected, type "4" followed by ENTER. The next series of menus will look like this.

Select Delimiter Pause.

1. Don’t wait for response.

2. Wait for response between commands.

3. Display current.

4. Exit.

1. Don’t Wait For Response - allows the CTL101 to deliver a command without receiving an end delimiter from the controlled equipment. In most instances this mode is used because it decreases the CTL101 response time (it does not have to wait for a response before the next command [button push] can be issued).

All commands sent to INLINE units must contain a leading code, the command code, and an ending code. Each unit can be set to recognize several sets of leading and end codes (delimiters): brackets [ ], parentheses ( ), braces{ }, slashes \ /, a less and greater than sign < > and signs !#. The factory default serial delimiters are [ ].

A complete command consists of: [ The leading code CH3 The command code. ] The ending code

Example: [CH3] sets the unit to select channel 3.

2. Wait For Response Between Commands (ASCII format only) - allows the CTL101 to wait for equipment responses while executing a command string. The CTL101 looks for an end delimiter from the host computer commands (or 100 millisecond timeout) and a response from the controlled equipment commands (or 1 second timeout) before initiating a contact or IR command string.

For example, users could program the following commands to be issued with one IR remote button push: [CH1][CH2][CH3][CH4]. With the pause engaged, the CTL101 would send out the initial command [CH1], wait for a response (with an end delimiter) from the controlled equipment, send the next command [CH2], wait again, etc. In each case, the CTL101 would wait for a response before issuing the next command.

Avoid setting the delimiter pause unless a string of commands is involved. Doing so will extend the time between infrared remote button responses.

3. Display Current - shows the current delimiter pause status.

SET CODE END CHARACTER

If an asterisk (*) is required in the command code, then you may choose another character to evoke the Main Menu and to terminate the command code entry. Enter "5" at the Main Menu, followed by Enter.

Type in a Code End / Menu Call character (Default = * asterisk).

- Note: This character will be Case Sensitive.

Note: If you forget this Code End / Menu Call character, reset the unit to default (Switch Bank #2, Switch #4) to set the Code End / Menu Call character to an asterisk (*). You may then set up another character in place of the asterisk (*). Remember to turn off the default switch when you are finished.

SELF-TEST

If SELF-TEST is selected, the next series of menus will look like this.

Test Results - Rev. 1.2

SRAM...........(PASS)

Flash..........(PASS)

RHost Serial....(PASS)

Inline Serial..(PASS)

Press button on remote.

**Press again - Verify.

Switch 1 to 8..(PASS)

Switch 9 to 16.(PASS)

As the name implies, the unit conducts a quick series of tests to make sure that the major functions / circuits are working properly. The test is primarily designed for factory use, however, in the event that major problems should occur, the customer can use it to determine if a problem is associated with the CTL101 operation. The menu indicates the status of the unit as the system runs a self-check. All functions (SRAM, static memory, Flash, etc.) are tested and the CTL101 indicates whether or not the unit passed or failed. The serial output port must be disconnected and both dipswitch banks must be set to default.

If problems occur, running the self-test before calling INLINE Technical Services will allow technicians to better assist users with problems.

Note: The contact closure test requires a test connector. The first part of the switch test verifies that all contacts are connected to ground (closed). The second part verifies that all contacts are open.

Troubleshooting

Problem: The power cord is plugged in, but the front panel POWER LED is dark.

 Solution 1: Make sure that the IN9230 IEC power cable is securely plugged into the unit and t he

A/C source.

 Solution 2: Make sure the A/C source is live.  Solution 3: The CTL101 contains a 0.25A time delay fuse. To change the fuse, first, disconnect

the power cord. Slide out the fuse holder (located on the rear panel to the left of the IEC cable receptacle) using the IN9339 alignment tool (included).

Problem: There is no response from the CTL120 Remote and the remote LED on the front of the CTL101 does not illuminate.

 Solution 1: Make sure that the CTL120 is positioned at an angle that is no more that 30 degrees

from the CTL130 IR Sensor.

 Solution 2: Make sure that the CTL120 is no farther than 30 feet from the IR Sensor.  Solution 3: Make sure that the IR sensor mode switch is in the correct position.

 Solution 4: The batteries in the CTL120 may be old / weak. Replace them if necessary.

For best results, position the emitters and sensors in direct line with each other whenever possible. The exception to the rule is when the CTL130 IR emitter is involved in the application. Do not place the CTL101 in a location where the unit’s sensor window will detect the emitter signal, or in an area in which the signal could feed back into the unit. This condition is evident whenever a remote control command is issued and the remote LED on the CTL101 remains "ON" even after the remote control button is released.

Problem: While setting up the IR remote control for a new manufacturer / component for the first time, a "Signal Error" message appears on the screen.

 Solution 1: The "Signal Error" may result from the CTL101 adjusting to a new code format. Try

again.

 Solution 2: If the "Signal Error" message occurs three times, then the manufacturer / component

is incompatible with the CTL101. Try another manufa cturer’s code format on your remote control.

Problem: While entering a command code, a "Code Area is Full" message appears on the screen.

 Solution: Command code strings can only consist of (up to) 120 characters. When the message

appears, back up one command and terminate the string by using an asterisk (*).

Problem: Infrared remote commands are responding very slowly.

 Solution: Unless a string of commands is involved, avoid setting the DELIMITER PAUSE.

Problem: There is no response from serial commands.

 Solution 1: Make sure that the baud rates of the controller and the unit match.  Solution 2: Make sure the controller is configured as eight data bits, one stop bit and no parity.  Solution 3: Make sure that the correct command codes and delimiters are being used.  Solution 4: Make sure that the connector cable is properly inserted into both / all units.

If problems persist, call INLINE Technical Services at (714) 450-1800 for further assistance.

Contact Switch Technical Information

1. Contact current is controlled via a 560-ohm resistor to less than 10 milliamps.

2. A debounce time of 50 milliseconds is built into the software.

3. Optical output isolation is 2,500 VRM’s.

4. The contact closure bank 1 (switches 8 thru 1) are checked first, if no changes are sensed then bank 2 (switches 16 thru 9) is sampled. If a change is sensed in bank 1 the order of service is first switch 8 on down to switch 1. If a change is sensed in bank 2 the order of service is first switch 16 on down to switch 9. Thus the priority of service is always switch 8 down to switch 1 and then switch 16 down to switch 9.

5. The Contact closure port is interleaved with service of the serial input, serial output, and infrared ports. Thus only one contact change is serviced between services of the other ports. This prevents one very active port from locking out service to the other ports.
