3.11.5 E Command

Routers and MSC-GCP2U32 only

Query or assign matrix routing changes echo enable. A value of 0 disables this feature. A value of 1 will cause
all matrix routing changes to be echoed in the form of an X command: “Xd,s[,l]”. Where 'd' is the destination
number, 's' is the source number and 'l' is the optional level number. This is useful for diagnostic purposes or
automation software which would like to receive synchronous matrix routing state updates.

NOTE:

Enabling this feature may slow down the system significantly during excessive matrix routing changes

(especially when enabled on a serial port interface). Also of note is that this option takes effect only while the
system remains powered (serial port) or for the duration of the connection (TCP/IP telnet sessions). This
command is not supported by the HTTP web command interface.
