CVS4 Component Video Switch

Where:

 

in = Currently selected channel.

Note 1: If the CVS4 is off, this command will turn on power before selecting channel.
Note 2: For backward compatibility with the HDS4.2, there is no space after the command in the 

response string.
Note 3: For backward compatibility with the HDS4.2, this response string is sent in the Asyn-

chronous mode when a channel status has changed. Future products will return the “

Output 

Mapping

” Query Response string.
