FEATURES

The LINK PSR-816 Series Remote Control panels
allow the user to control the AVS-816 video/audio
switcher from a distant location. The PSR-816 is a
16X1 controller. Each remote control panel has an
RS-232/422 serial port allowing it to be interfaced
with a computer. An internal switch allows the
selection of RS-232 or RS-422. Communications
between the switchers are handled via an RS-485
compatible serial link, using RJ-11 modular jack.
This unique combination provides a reliable link over
long distances , up to 1000 feet with inexpensive,
readily available cable. Active video and audio
channels are indicated by an LED above each
pushbutton for the selected source signal. A front
panel switch selects, audio follow, break-away or
lock-out.

Serial commands are easy to use and If desired, the
PSR-816 may control the AVS-816 as a video or audio
only switcher.
Another feature of the AVS-816 is, modem control. The
software has a telephone dialer, that allows the
operation through a standard telephone line. A modem
at the main switcher location will communicate back to
the PC with full feed-back of a command selected.
The LINK PSR-816 is packaged in a tough one R.U.
chassis and backed by LINK'S standard 10-year
warranty. The Remote Control features reduced depth
to allow it to be mounted on a table or desk-top. The
