RS-232 SERIAL COMMANDS
MORE STUFF
Note: Turning the unit System Power 011 via RS-232 will extinguish the LED channel display leaving only the Power
SW~ LED on. The Video and Audio outputs will also mute. While the unit is turned 011 by RS-232 it will continue to accept and
act upon switching commands. For example, if the unit is in the off mode (via RS-232) and you send a command to switch an
input to an output that route will complete and the video and audio will now appear on that channel only. The front panel LED
channel display for that particular output will also show the input selected (for that single output channel only). The remaining
LED’s will remain off and video and audio outputs muted. The unit will still return status and change messages in response to
commands sent while in Power Off state. A hard reset command (SBALLRST) will return the unit to normal operation and also
unlock the front panel.
