Important Safety Instructions
Caution:
Read these instructions:
Read and understand all safety and operating instructions before using the equipment.
Keep these Instructions:
The safety instructions should be kept for future reference.
Heed all Warnings:
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the equipment or in the user information.
Avoid Attachments:
Do not use tools or attachments that are not recommended, because they may be hazardous
Warning!:
• This equipment should be operated only from the included power supply.
• To remove power from the equipment safely, remove all power cords from the rear of the equipment, or the
desktop power module (if detachable), or from the power source receptacle (wall plug).
• Power cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be stepped on or pinched by items placed upon or
against them.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of a polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one
wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the
third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not t into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
• Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. To prevent the risk of
shock, do not attempt to service this equipment yourself because opening or removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltage or other hazards. Contact your local Neets reseller or distributor.
• If the equipment has slots or holes in the enclosure, these are provided to prevent overheating of sensitive
components inside. These openings must never be blocked by other objects.
• Do not use this equipment near water.
• To reduce the risk of re or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture and objects lled
with liquids.
• Unplug the product before cleaning. Clean only with a dry cloth and not cleaning uid or aerosols. Such products
could enter the unit and cause damage, re, or electric shock. Some substances may also mar the nish of the
product.
FCC Class A Notice:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part
15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
The Class A limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
FCC regulations state that any unauthorized changes or modications to this equipment, not expressly approved by
the manufacturer, could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
The lightning bolt triangle is used to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous
voltages” within the unit’s chassis that may be of sufcient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric
shock to humans.
The exclamation point triangle is used to alert the user to presence of important operating and

service instructions in the literature accompanying the product.
UniForm is a compact and intelligent AV control system. It is remarkably simple to use, thanks to
an intuitive user interface with eight buttons and a crisp E-ink display.
With UniForm anyone can start up a presentation without complicated procedures.
Simply press ONE button and you are ready to begin!
UniForm is a perfect choice for the classroom, meeting or conference room and is easy to
install. UniForm can control devices through RS232 and LAN.

Installation
The Neets Control - UniForm can be installed in EU, DK(1,5 modul LK FUGA Air) standard electrical boxes by using the mounting brackets included in the box.
The front of the UniForm consists of an E-ink-display,
showing the functions related to the four bottuns on
each side of the display. The buttons are numbered as
shown to the right.
Each button has a tactile “click” feedback to ensure
proper activation. Also, each button has an embedded
multicolor LED light to indicate current status of the
AV system.
E-ink display, button functions and LED indication are
configured using the Neets Project Designer software.

Input trigger
I/O ports
The three I/O (Inputs/Outputs) can be configured as
either output or input. Each is available for
connection to a PIR (movement) sensor, keyboard
lock, relays or for other compatible uses. The ports
are not potential free; you may need external relays
to prevent ground loops depending on your
application.
When used as outputs, the I/O ports are active
low. When activated, the I/O ports are tied to GND
through a FET transistor (also called open drain/
collector function). Each I/O can draw up to
24VDC/500mA.
When used as inputs, the applied voltage must be
below 1 VDC to be accepted as LOW, and above 4
VDC (but below 24 VDC) to be accepted as HIGH.
The inputs are default HIGH and must be connected
to ground in order to change state.
RS-232/IR ports
The RS-232 ports (TX-1, RX-1, TX-2, TX-3) are used
for one- or two-way communication. Port 1 is a two
way port, which can be used for devices for which a
reply function is required, such as a projector.
All of the RS-232/IR ports can be configured in the
Neets Project Designer software either as RS-232
or as IR emitter.
Connect the port as shown below.
Relay
PIN 5 <-> GND
PIN 2 <-> Tx
PIN 3 <-> Rx
Switch
PIN 5 <-> GND
PIN 2 <-> Tx
When used as RS-232
transmit port: Connect the
device to TX-1 and GND, as
shown above.
Page 8 of 11
When used as single IR port:
Connect the IR emitter to
TX-2 (striped wire) and GND,
as shown above.
Use Neets IR-Emitter
Junction
When used as dual IR port:
Connect the IR 1 emitter to
TX-2 (striped wire) and black
wire on IR 1 emitter to IR 2
emitter (striped wire), and
black wire from IR 2 emitter
to GND, as shown above.
Use Neets IR-Emitter
LAN port
The network connector integrates the system into a local
area network. You must connect the UniForm to your LAN
if you are using any of the LAN features of the product.
The UniForm has Power over Ethernet functionality built
into the LAN interface which will power up the entire control system through a PoE-enabled PSE (power sourcing
equipment) device. To power the UniForm, use a PoE enabled switch or a PoE power injector which complies with
IEEE802.3af/at.
Two LEDs on the connector indicate the following:
Color:OffOnBlink
YellowNo LinkLinkActivity
Green10Mbit100Mbit
Conguration through USB port
234
The USB port is used exclusively for configuring the UniForm from the Neets Project Designer software. It can’t
be used to control any external devices.
The USB port is located on the surface facing the floor
when hanging on the wall. The host USB port can power
the control system while configuring, so no external power
is needed when configuring the UniForm. However PoE and
the USB port may be connected at the same time, for
example when changing the configuration on an already
installed unit.
The USB connector for connecting to the UniForm is type
“mini USB B 5P”. (It is available on the web as a USB A to
Mini USB B 5P).
Troubleshooting
Error indication using LEDs
If there is a fault in either the configuration or the SieRRa
II unit, this will be indicated on the front button LED indi-
cators. Button LEDs 1-4 are used to indicate the error;
the LED indicators are numbered as shown.
