Video SEND_COMMANDs (Transmitters)
Command
Description
?VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT
Requests the setting for the Auto Select
mode for the video input signal on the
Transmitter (Enable, Analog or Disable).
Important:
This command must be sent to Port 1.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'?VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT'"
Example:
SEND_COMMAND dvTX,"'?VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT'"
Returns a COMMAND of the form:
VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT-<ENABLE|DISABLE|ANALOG>
VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT
Enables or disables the Auto Select
mode for the video input signal on the
Transmitter.
• ENABLE – sets the Auto Select mode
for digital preference (the factory
default is digital).
• ANALOG – sets the Auto Select
mode to analog preference.
• DISABLE – disables Auto Select.
Important:
This command must be sent to Port 1.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT-<ENABLE|DISABLE|ANALOG>'"
Valid responses:
value = ENABLE | DISABLE | ANALOG
Example:
SEND_COMMAND dvTX,"'VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT-ENABLE'"
Note:
VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT must be set to
“
DISABLE
”
for a
VIDIN_FORMAT command to take effect.
?INPUT-VIDEO
Requests the video input being used on
the Transmitter: either the digital video
(Input 7) or the analog video (Input 8).
The output is always 6.
Important:
This command must be sent to Port 1
.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'?INPUT-VIDEO,6'"
Example:
SEND_COMMAND dvTX,"'?INPUT-VIDEO,6'"
Returns a COMMAND of the form:
SWITCH-LVIDEOI8O6
Note:
If the VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT state is either ENABLE or ANALOG and
no content is being passed (nothing is connected to either the digital or analog
ports), then the query returns a COMMAND of the form:
SWITCH-LVIDEOI0O6
VI<input>O<output>
Sets the Transmitter to route either the
digital video (Input 7) or the analog
video (Input 8) to the output (which is
always Output 6).
Important:
This command must be sent to Port 1
.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'VI<input>O<output>'"
Valid responses:
input = 7 for digital video; 8 for analog video
output = 6
Example:
SEND_COMMAND dvTX,"'VI8O6'"
Note:
Setting the route to either digital or analog will also override the
VIDIN_AUTO_SELECT setting to DISABLE if not already disabled.
