Models that have an RJ45 LAN connection can be individually connected directly to a LAN via a hub or switch instead
of daisy-chaining displays together. This may require more wiring since each display is individually connected directly
to a central LAN hub or switch. The advantages of using this method is that communications to other displays will still
function even if:
• A display is removed from the video wall without bridging the daisy-chain.
• A display loses AC power or is turned off via the display’s main power switch.
• A display fails.
• There is a fault in cabling to an individual display.
• A display enters standby power mode and the LAN POWER setting is set to OFF (models that support
LAN daisy-chain only).
See “Example: Direct Multi IP LAN” on page 25.
Important points to note:
• Each display must have a unique IP address.
• Since each display is addressed by the combination of IP address and Monitor ID, each display can have
the same or unique Monitor IDs.
RS232 Daisy-chain

RS-232C IN, OUT, and LAN
Models that have two RS232 connections (not including any RS232 connections on OPS devices), support RS232
daisy-chaining. The connection labeled IN is the input to the display from the host PC. The other connection labeled
OUT is the output to connect to the IN on the next display in the daisy chain.
See “Example: Single IP LAN with daisy-chained RS232” on page 24 and “Example: Daisy-chained RS232 with one
COM port” on page 22.
Important points to note:
• When using RS232 to connect displays using a daisy-chain, each display on the chain must have a unique
Monitor ID (set via the display’s OSD).
• Displays must be connected using an RS232 serial NULL modem cable (also known as a “crossover”
cable).
• The rst display in the daisy-chain can be connected to the host PC either via RS232, or by LAN if the
model has an RJ45 LAN connection (not including any RJ45 LAN connections on OPS devices). When
