Input and Output numbers assume an 8x8 configuration.

Values for Commands:

Inputs: yy = 01-08 or A = All, U = Up, D = Down 

Outputs: xx = 01-08 or A = All, U = Up. D = Down

System Input Setup Commands, xx = [01-08, A], (A=All):

Set Video Input 

port

SPIxxVy

xx = Input number 
y = Input type  

(1-HDMI, 2-CAT6/

STP)

To set which Video input type will be active by 

specific input number.

Example:

 To set input 2 to HDMI, issue the 

command; ‘SPI02V1’

Example:

 To set input 2 to CAT6/STP issue the 

command: ‘SPI02V2’ 

Example:

 To set ALL inputs to HDMI issue the 

command: ‘SPIAV1’ 

Set RCA Audio 

Input type

SPIxxRCAy

xx = Input number 
y = RCA Audio 

type (1-Analog, 

2-Digital) 

To set which Audio input type will be active.

Example:

 To set RCA input number 2 to Analog, 

issue the command: ‘SPI02RCA1’

Example:

 To set ALL RCA inputs to Analog, issue 

the command; ‘SPIARCA1’

Example:

 To set RCA input number 2 to Digital, 

issue the command; ‘SPI02RCA2’

System Output Setup Commands, xx = [01-08, A], (A=All):  

Set Output to  

Video Input

SPOxxSIyy

xx = Output 

number (01-08) 
yy = Input number 

(01-08) or [U, D] 

(U=Up, D=Down)

To switch Video Inputs to an Output.

Example:

 To switch Video at input 2, to output 6, 

issue the command; ‘SPO06SI02’

Example:

 To step through each input going 

up through the inputs, issue the command; 

‘SPO01SI(U)’, each time this command is issued, the 

selected output (1 in this case) will step through the 

inputs in ascending order starting with the presently 

selected input.To step through the inputs in 

descending order from the presently selected input, 

use ‘SPO01SI(D)’. (Do not add parentheses).
*NOTE: the above parameters are for an 8x8 

configuration.

Set Output to  

Audio Input

SPOxxSAyy 

xx = Output 

number 
yy = choice of 

Audio Input type 

desired, routed to 

that Output.
(01-HDMI,  

02-EXT PCM, 

03- EXT ANALOG, 

04-CAT6/STP)

To set which Audio format is routed to which Output.

Example:

 To set output 6 to route External Analog 

Audio, issue the command;
‘SPO06SA03’
NOTE: This command must be issued in concert 

with the above switching command for Video only.

ult EDID library

SP C EDID 

xx H/C/D yy

xx = Input card 

number (01-08), 
H = HDMI,  

C = CAT6/STP,

‘D’ is selected.

To copy the EDID information from an Output card 

(display), to an Input card (source).

Example:

 To copy the EDID information from HDMI 

Output 2, to HDMI Input 4, issue the command; 

‘SPCEDID04H02’

Example:

 To copy the EDID information from CAT6/

STP Output 2, to HDMI Input 4, issue the command; 

‘SPCEDID04C02’  

Example:

 To load ‘DEFAULT2’ EDID library for Input 

card 3, issue the command; ‘SPCEDID03D02’ 
Below are the Default EDID library choices when 

selecting ‘D’ as a variable:
01 = DEFAULT1 (1080i 2CH PCM) 
02 = DEFAULT2 (1080p 2CH PCM)     
03 = DEFAULT3 (1080i PCM, DTS/DOLBY.  

not including HD audio)      
04 = DEFAULT4 (1080p PCM, DTS/DOLBY.  

not including HD audio)  
05 = DEFAULT5 (1080i every audio  

including HD audio)

STPOC hhhh

‘hhhh’ = hex value 

for Input or Output 

numbers selected.

To set CAT6/STP Output to either DDC (Data Display 

Channel) or PCM Audio.
Default or unselected will be DDC, selected Inputs/

Outputs will be PCM Audio.
Binary value 0 = DDC, 1 = PCM Audio

Example:

 To set the CAT6/STP output of outputs
