Remarks
- Ensure the correct RS-232 settings (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) match the specifications of your external device.
- RS-232 elements typically remain invisible, as they serve a functional role rather than a visual one.
- If connected to an external data source, the commands can change dynamically in real time.
- Proof of Play logging can be useful for monitoring when and where RS-232 commands were executed.
