Description

This driver allows an RTI system to control a CYP Modular video matrix, using TCP/IP.  Ethernet control means no need to use up valuable I/O ports on your RTI processor and no more unreliable infrared emitters cluttering up the rack.  Fast and reliable switching of inputs and outputs improves the user experience and robust feedback of the current configuration makes for accurate, tidy programming and guaranteed synchronisation between systems.  A simple but effective driver, designed to make the installer’s life easier.

Additionally, the CYP Modular driver supports routing one-way RS232 commands to the serial port on a CYP extender, effectively expanding the I/O capabilities of the RTI system.

How does it work?

The RTI XP series processor communicates with the CYP matrix over the network.  Very little configuration is required.  The following features are supported:

• Control via TCP/IP.
• Fast, accurate switching.
• Feedback of current status.
• Routable RS232 control.

The drivers come packaged with a demonstration remote control design, enabling easy integration and testing with your existing system.

Is an interface device required for the two systems to communicate?

No, the RTI system communicates with the matrix over the network, so no additional hardware is needed.

Other similar drivers are really expensive, how come this one is free!?

Sometimes, driver development is funded by the manufacturer of the product to be integrated, and sometimes by the control system manufacturer.  Whenever possible, we offer the driver for free.

If it’s free, do I need a licence?

Nope.  No licence is required, just download the zip package from the Downloads tab.
