Example 3: Using CB2000 as a stand-alone controller with TB6 and TB8
You can use the CB2000 as a stand-alone serial controller with the TB6 and TB8 terminal blocks. In this configuration,
the FrontRow TB6 and TB8 adapters included with your CB2000 standalone kit supply power, routes commands, and
feeds data back (in the case of bidirectional serial devices). In combination with powerful tools like FrontRow Maestro™,
this can allow you to ‘network’ and manage projectors that are otherwise not online. Below are the basic connections
for controlling a projector and amplifier serially, and a DVD player via infrared remote.
