Index Addressing of Modules (slot, source) and Units (channel)
When executing commands, it is almost always necessary to provide the index of a specific
SwitchPXIe module or an index of a specific installed unit.
For the commands that require index values:
•
<c>:
is the chassis index in which the specific blade module is installed; this is an
integer, inclusive of 0.
•
<n>:
is the slot (or source) index of the specific blade module, this is an integer, <1 to
18>
•
<m>:
is the channel index of a specific unit in the module, this is an integer, <1, 2 >.
Message Queues
Information is exchanged in the form of messages. These messages are held in input and
output queues.
The output queue stores responses to query commands. The CSLServer transmits any data in
the output queue when a read request is received. Unless explicitly specified otherwise in the
command description, all output response data is transmitted in ASCII format.
