To verify signal status,
enter the Status command below. Replace the “
#
”s with
the level and input or output number.
SL#O#T
or
SL#I#T
To cancel an incorrect or incomplete BCS command
, enter “
X
”.
The results of the BCS command will display in parentheses (see table below);
( ) indicates that no input is routed to the output being verified, or that no
outputs are receiving a signal from the input being verified.
Status Examples:
BCS Command
Result
Explanation of Result
SL0I97T
SL0I97T(42 77 198 209)
Input 97 is routed to Outputs 42, 77,
198, and 209 on Level 0
SL1O130T
SL1O130T( )
Output 130 is not connected to an input
on Level 1
Fragmented Status
The system may also support reporting fragmented status (this feature must be
enabled in X
N
Connect). A fragmented status result is indicated by a “
#
”. The “
#
”
indicates that the input or output is not sending or receiving the complete set of
signals that are defined for that level.
For example, if the audio signal for Input 58 is routed to Output 129 on the audio
level (
L2
) and the status for Input 58 is checked on the audio-follow-video level
(
L0
), the status result would be “
SL0I58T (129#)
”. If checking the status for
Output 129 on the audio-follow-video level (
L0
), the status result would be
“
SL0O129T (#)
”.

Result
Explanation of Result
SL0I104T
SL0I104T(73#)
Input 104 is only sending part of the signal
set defined for Level 0 to Output 73
SL0O73T
SL0O73T(#)
Output 73 is receiving part of the signal set
defined for Level 0 from one or more
inputs on different levels
