I am using all of my RS232 ports and want to control one more component via RS232. What happens if hook of a y splitter to send commands to two different pieces of equipment (AV receiver and subwoofer amp). I am assuming that if you send a command to the AV receiver it will work but but what happens when that same command is sent to subwoofer amp? Will this cause problems if it is two completely different pieces of equipment by different manufacturers with different protocols?
FYI - this is the type of y splitter i am talking about
