1. Introduction
The RMC-185+ is a cost effective physical controller designed specifically for control of the KMU100+ 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.
Two Multiviewer modes (Switcher and KMU modes)
Compact design for easy installation
1.2 Device Setup
The RMC-185+ is designed to control the KMU-100+. Therefore, before pairing the RMC-185+ with
the KMU-100+, the user should first ensure that the two devices are installed of the two pieces of
firmware as listed below:
KMU-100+: V1.0.13932
RMC-185+: V1.012
See Firmware Upgrade Procedure in this manual for instructions on how you can install firmware
on RMC-185+. See the KMU-100+ manual for KMU-100+’s firmware upgrade procedure.
Note: The RMC-185 cannot be used to control the KMU-100+.
After the devices have been successfully upgraded to their corresponding firmware, 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+. See the system diagram below for the overall system setup.
Note: The communication protocol between the two devices is RS-422.
