degrees Celsius. Typical values range from room temperature to around 100
?
F
(38
?
C), depending on the number of active connections and the physical
installation of the chassis.
The
CS
command displays a list of active connections for the specified internal
chassis ID. It can only list the active connection for one internal chassis at a
time. Connections are listed in the form
NS
I TO
O
where
N
is the chassis ID number,
I
is the input port number, and
O
is the output
port number.
8.4 Connection Commands
The main function of the Matrix-Hub is to provide connections between
computing resources and end users. The Matrix-Hub user may control
connections made with the Matrix-Hub by using the connections commands.
C <chassis ID> <input> <output>
Connects input port to output port
B 1 <input> <output>[,][-][<output>]
Connects i nput port to multiple
output ports
C <source entity> <destination entity>
Connects source entity to
destination entity
D <chassis ID> <input> <output>
Disconnect input port from output
port
D [<chassis ID>] ALL
Disconnect all connections
CLEAR [<chassis ID>]
Clear current connections (no
restore possible)
RESTORE
Restore previously broken
connections
The
C
, or connect, command is the most basic method to connect an input port to
an output port. For single connections, the user must specify the chassis ID, the
input port number, and the output port number. This command may also be used
to connect source entities to destination entities (see section 8.6, Entity
Commands for more information). The connection will remain until disconnected,
cleared, or power to the Matrix-Hub is lost.
The
B
, or broadcast, command allows several video output ports to connect to a
single video input port. The internal chassis ID number is also specified in this
command, but because only the video internal chassis is capable of multiport
broadcast, the number will always be “1”. The input port must also be specified.
The output ports may be listed individually and separated by commas, or a range
of ports may be specified by separating the first port and last port in the range by
