It may only be connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building. SL-12 - Getting Started 2.2 Safety Instructions ! 2.3 Caution: There are no operator serviceable parts inside the unit Warning: Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall adapter that is provided with the unit Warning: Disconnect the power and unplug the unit from the wall before installing Recycling Kramer Products The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive 2002/96/EC aims to reduce the amount of WEEE sent for disposal to landfill or incineration by requiring it to be collected and recycled. To comply with the WEEE Directive, Kramer Electronics has made arrangements with the European Advanced Recycling Network (EARN) and will cover any costs of treatment, recycling and recovery of waste Kramer Electronics branded equipment on arrival at the EARN facility. For details of Kramer’s recycling arrangements in your particular country go to our recycling pages at SL-12 - Getting Started 3 3 Overview The SL-12 is a highly versatile controller that acts as an all-in-one control processor for control of AV equipment—especially projectors and associated equipment—in any room (such as classrooms, boardrooms, or auditoriums). It streamlines operations and simplifies control by integrating audio, video, and computer-video sources into a centralized system. The SL-12 features: An Ethernet port for controlling several AV products over ETH 4 general purpose I/O ports that can be configured as analog inputs, digital inputs, or digital outputs for interfacing with a variety of devices such as sensors, switches, LEDs, and relays 4 bidirectional RS-232 ports that control AV equipment such as projectors, LCD and PDP displays, power amplifiers, switchers and scalers 8 relay contact closure ports that control other room items related to the AV system such as raising and lowering drapes, the screen or the projector IR control on three inputs (one built-in receiver and two IR inputs on 3.5mm mini jacks) and four outputs (terminal blocks) IR Learning that learns commands from any IR remote 1 RS-485 serial port Compatibility with Kramer Site-CTRL software for network remote control and management over the Ethernet port A K-NET™ control channel that connects compatible user interfaces and supplies power and control data over a single cable A USB port for uploading a configuration file Status LEDs for all functions Flexible control via Ethernet, K-NET™, RS-485, IR receiver and external IR commands 4 SL-12 - Overview 3.1 Defining the SL-12 Master Room Controller This section defines the SL-12.
