Connection with the System Controllers
Data Line Connection
Up to eight WV-CU550C System Controllers can be installed in a  Matrix System.
The Control Board installed in the WJ-SX550C Matrix Switcher has eight ports that correspond to eight WV-CU550C System
Controller inputs.
If the supplied 6-conductor cable assembly is used, simply plug one end of the cable into a port on the Control Board and the
other end into one of the ports on the rear of the System Controller.
If you use cables assembled from locally procured materials, it is important that only high quality, data grade cable, suitable
for RS-485 communication (shielded 4-wire twisted pair cable) is used.
Low grade cable will result in unstable operation of the system.

Normal Mode:Enables selection of function menus on the LCD display, except the CAM-P (D5) Menu.
CAM-P Mode:Enables selection of the CAM-P (D5) Menu on the LCD display, including the menus available in Normal
Mode. Choose this mode to use the Camera Position functions.
Set the mode before turning the System Controller’s power on.
Once the System Controllers power has been turned on, the mode is fixed. The factory default setting is Normal Mode.
Mode Selection Switch Setting
The Mode Selection Switch, that selects the operation mode of the System Controller, is located on the rear of the System
Controller. Set the switches to meet the system requirement as shown below.

Notes:
• To avoid unstable operation, do not connect more than
4 System Controllers in a daisy-chain connection.
• The response may be poorer in a daisy-chain connec-
tion. To operate multiple System Controllers at the
same time, it is recommended to use a Home Run con-
nection.
• Confirm that the jumper connector (CN13) on the
Control Board is positioned as shown below.Termination and Controller Unit Number Setting

Combination of direct and indirect connections
(Both “Home Run” and “Daisy-Chain” wiring in one system)
In this type of installation there is a mixture of wiring methods, with some System Controllers connecting directly to the Control
Board while other System Controllers connect to the Control Board through other System Controllers.
