This chapter describes the set up of a Moxa NPort 5650 Serial Device Server in combination with just:in and a Blackmagic DeckLink Quad Video Card in order to control VTRs over dedicated RS-422 connections.
There is a problem with the Virtual Serial Device of macOS 10.13 ("High Sierra") where the Moxa device cannot connect properly. Customers using a Moxa device must use macOS 10.12.x or lower, independent of the just:in version they are using. |
Make sure the RJ45 to RS-422 cable uses the following pin layout which is different compared to the DB-9 cables for computer usage.
