In the above examples the first command queries the matrix routing state (typical of a 16x4 system for 
example), the second command queries destination 3 only, the third command connects source 4 to destination 3 
on all levels and the fourth command mutes destination 4 level 2. 
 

Command stacking

 

Command stacking is especially useful for the X command, since it allows for several connections to be 
performed at the same time. 
 

Example

 

>X1,4#X2,3#X3,2#X4,1

 


 
The above would connect source 4 to destination 1, source 3 to destination 2, source 2 to destination 3 and 
source 1 to destination 4 for all levels.
