Host and Matrix Switcher Communication
SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters are
required to begin or end a command sequence. Commands can be entered
back-to-back in a string with no spaces. When the switcher determines that a command
is valid, it executes the command and sends a response to the host device. All responses
from the switcher to the host end with a carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF =
]
),
indicating the end of the response character string (one or more characters).
Copyright Information
The copyright message is displayed upon connecting to a switcher via TCP/IP or Telnet or
after a power cycle via RS-232, and depends on the switcher model.
