ttention Software Update !!!
Unlike the software for the M203 Single RS232 interface, the M203
software for the Pioneer controller is premium-priced and therefore
copy protected.
Under no circumstances should you load any other software than the
M203 Software Pioneer when carrying out an update. If a differen
software is loaded, the Pioneer software is then blocked and has to be
reloaded at the Revox Head Office in Villingen, Germany.

M203 Interface
Increasingly, there is a demand
for plasma screens with a larger
diagonal size than the 42
inches, offered by the Revox
Re:ception plasma 42 HD. With
the Re:connect M203 Pioneer,
Revox offers an interface, which
can transfer control commands to
a 50” or 61” plasma screen from
Pioneer over the RS232 interface.
Installation
The M203 interface can be
installed easily and quickly.
There are two types of fixing
available.

Re:connect
This not only significantly increases the user comfort for the
Revox M51 Source Management
System, when used in combination with third-party televisions,
it also gives you the option of
using the interface to control a
screen with a diagonal greater
than 42 inches.
1) The four outside fixing holes
are used for a permanent
installation.
2) Revox recommends using
the two slots on the side for a
variable installation.

Connection:
M203 with M51
Socket: M51 LINK IN
The M203 interface is
connected to the M51 LINK
socket on the back of the M51
with the telephone cable
supplied.
If you want to use a different
cable for some reason, you
should use only a non-
crossed, 4-core telephone
cable with an RJ11 plug (6P4C
modular).
Cables up to 100 metres in
length can be used.
Connection:
M203 with external interfaces
Socket: M51 LINK OUT
The M51 LINK can be used to
connect additional external
interfaces to the M203 interface.
These could, for example, be
the M201 IR interface, a M200
Domotic interface, a M202
Ethernet interface or simply an
additional M203.
You should use only a non-
crossed, 4-core telephone
cable with an RJ11 plug (6P4C
modular) for this connection.
Re:connect
Connection:
M203 with seriell interface
Socket: RS232
The M203 Interface can be
used with other (TV) devices,
which also have a serial interface.
This enables the integration of a
large number of Pioneer televisions into the Revox World.
Which models are supported
and how the integration is
achieved described, starting
from page 6.
The M203 Interface is also
suitable as an interface to
domestic facility management
systems such as AMX or
Crestron, which have a special
Revox protocol.
Even a Windows PC with the
M230 control program can be
connected to the serial interface
on the M203.
You will find further information
from Page 5.
Serial cables with a maximum
length of 10 metres can be
used.

Revox recommends the use of
a 2-core screened cable
(microphone cable), where the
screening is used as ground.
This cable may be a maximum
of 30 metres in length.
Please ensure that you use
the correct polarity when
setting up as otherwise you
might damage your equipment.
