Control by External Device
If Pyramix is to be controlled by another device or devices, these are installed via Settings > All Settings Remote
Control > Controller (See: Controller on page 763 ) and, where applicable, Pyramix functions are mapped to the
controller via the Settings > All Settings > Project > Controller Mapping page. (See: Controller Mapping on
page 732)

Please see: Sony 9 - Pin Protocol Configuration (Pyramix controlled by external device) on page 765
Control by Another Pyramix
This can be achieved either by using Virtual Transport 2 and Sony P2 over IP, or by conventional 9-pin RS422 serial.
The former is a convenient, cost effective and robust solution.
Configuring Pyramix for Control by another Pyramix using P2 over IP / VT2
• In Pyramix select the Settings > All Settings > Remote Control > Controller page.
• Click the Add button. The Controller Properties dialog opens.
• Enter a suitable name for the Pyramix in the Name field.
• Choose the Driver for the machine from the drop-down list. I.e. Sony 9-pin
•Click on the Properties button to open the Sony 9-Pin Configuration dialog.
•In the Port section click on the IP (Ethernet) radio button
• Make any other changes you need in the Sony 9-Pin Protocol Configuration (Please see: Sony 9-Pin
Protocol Configuration (Machine) on page 760 for a detailed description of the options.)
•Click on OK to close the Sony 9-Pin Configuration dialog.
•Check that Enable is ticked in the Controller Properties dialog.
•Click on OK to close the Controller Properties dialog.
Note: The slave machine will show up on other Pyramix machines in the Settings > All Settings
> Remote Control > Virtual Transport 2 page. (This may take a while until the network map is
refreshed) Once showing as Available simply click on the name in the list to highlight it and click
on Connect.
